Clark doi:10.1038/s41556-017-0029-4 Exonuclease EXD2 in mitochondrial translation    pp120 - 122 Brian M. Zid & Pankaj Kapahi doi:10.1038/s41556-017-0031-x Hitchhiking on selective autophagy    pp122 - 124 Christian Münch & Ivan Dikic doi:10.1038/s41556-018-0036-0 Illuminating MSK1's role in tumour dormancy    pp124 - 126 Candice Alexandra Grzelak & Cyrus Michael Ghajar doi:10.1038/s41556-018-0035-1 Nature Cell Biology JOBS of the week Research Fellow Queen's University Belfast Postdoctoral Associate University of Pittsburgh Assistant, Associate, or Full Professor Thomas Jefferson University, Sidney Kimmel Cancer Center Postdoctoral Fellow University Health Network (Toronto) Research Fellowship The University of York More Science jobs from Nature Cell Biology EVENT Cellular Biology of Addiction (Cambridge, UK) 29.07.18 Cambridge, UK More science events from Letters   Defining murine organogenesis at single-cell resolution reveals a role for the leukotriene pathway in regulating blood progenitor formation    pp127 - 134 Ximena Ibarra-Soria, Wajid Jawaid, Blanca Pijuan-Sala, Vasileios Ladopoulos, Antonio Scialdone et al. doi:10.1038/s41556-017-0013-z Ibarra-Soria et al. study cellular diversity, transcriptional signatures, lineage specification and somitogenesis on a single-cell level in E8.25 mouse embryos, and reveal the regulation of blood progenitor formation by the leukotriene pathway.   Systematic analysis of ribophagy in human cells reveals bystander flux during selective autophagy    pp135 - 143 Heeseon An & J. Wade Harper doi:10.1038/s41556-017-0007-x An and Harper quantify ribophagy in mammalian cells and show that nutrient-deprivation-induced ribophagy is independent of the ATG8 conjugation system, whereas proteotoxic stress-induced ribophagy requires ATG5 and VPS34.   Segregation of mitochondrial DNA heteroplasmy through a developmental genetic bottleneck in human embryos    pp144 - 151 Vasileios I. Floros, Angela Pyle, Sabine Dietmann, Wei Wei, Walfred W. C. Tang et al. doi:10.1038/s41556-017-0017-8 Floros et al. show that mtDNA copy number is reduced and non-synonymous mtDNA mutations are eliminated to prevent mtDNA mutation accumulation in germ cells during human primordial germ cell development.   Advertisement Receive up to $35,000 to fund your science outreach project The ASCB Public Engagement Grants will provide funding, mentoring, and project assessment to ASCB members interested in public outreach in scientific areas.

Knobel, Laura J. Bailey, Andreu Casali et al. doi:10.1038/s41556-017-0016-9 By analysing the exonuclease EXD2, Silva et al. find that it localizes to mitochondria, and that its loss alters metabolism by affecting mitochondrial translation and causes developmental delay and lifespan extension in flies.   Myosin-Va is required for preciliary vesicle transportation to the mother centriole during ciliogenesis    pp175 - 185 Chien-Ting Wu, Hsin-Yi Chen & Tang K. Tang doi:10.1038/s41556-017-0018-7 Wu et al. show that myosin-Va is needed for the initiation of primary cilia formation by transporting preciliary vesicles to the distal appendages of the mother centriole in a manner dependent on both microtubules and centrosomal actin.   RIP3 targets pyruvate dehydrogenase complex to increase aerobic respiration in TNF-induced necroptosis    pp186 - 197 Zhentao Yang, Yan Wang, Yingying Zhang, Xiadi He, Chuan-Qi Zhong et al. doi:10.1038/s41556-017-0022-y RIP3 regulates mitochondrial metabolism. Yang et al. show that RIP3 activates the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex to enhance aerobic respiration and increase mitochondrial ROS during necroptosis, and MLKL is required for RIP3 translocation to mitochondria.   The MTM1–UBQLN2–HSP complex mediates degradation of misfolded intermediate filaments in skeletal muscle    pp198 - 210 Christos Gavriilidis, Leila Laredj, Romain Solinhac, Nadia Messaddeq, Julien Viaud et al. doi:10.1038/s41556-017-0024-9 Gavriilidis et al. show that MTM1, which is mutated in X-linked centronuclear myopathy, and UBQLN2 recognize misfolded desmin and vimentin and trigger their degradation to clear misfolded intermediated filaments prior to aggregate formation.   MSK1 regulates luminal cell differentiation and metastatic dormancy in ER+ breast cancer    pp211 - 221 Sylwia Gawrzak, Lorenzo Rinaldi, Sara Gregorio, Enrique J. Arenas, Fernando Salvador et al. doi:10.1038/s41556-017-0021-z Gawrzak et al. show that MSK1 regulates bone metastatic dormancy of ER+ breast cancer. MSK1 affects histone modifications at luminal transcription factor promoters to prevent cell differentiation and bone homing.   Advertisement Nature Mentoring Collection Offering advice and support to scientist mentors and their mentees Access the Collection>>   Amendments & Corrections   Author Correction: TBC1D23 is a bridging factor for endosomal vesicle capture by golgins at the trans-Golgi    p222 doi:10.1038/s41556-017-0026-7 Natureevents is a fully searchable, multi-disciplinary database designed to maximise exposure for events organisers.
