In vivo expression in Drosophila motor neurons reveals that the two most prevalent forms of mitofusin alleles associated with CMT2A neuropathy (R94Q and R364W) have opposite effects on mitochondrial fusion.

MAPK/ERK signalling promotes ES cell differentiation. Negative feedback on ERK1/2 signalling influences the rate at which ES cells exit from naïve pluripotency. Interference with feedback regulator RSK increases the speed and homogeneity of transition to differentiation.

The GPI‐anchored tumour suppressor OPCML interacts with the oncogenic RTK AXL inducing its redistribution into cholesterol‐rich membrane domains. There, AXL is de‐phosphorylated by the resident phosphatase PTPRG, inhibiting AXL‐dependent signalling, motility and invasion.

In C. elegans, caveolin‐1 expression and the formation of caveolae is positively regulated by the aging‐regulating insulin/IGF (IIS) cascade. The knockdown of cav‐1 extends lifespan and protects the worm from toxic protein aggregation, linking lipid assemblies to the regulation of aging.
