The paper identifies how lipid-facing polar residues direct membrane proteins to FtsH-mediated degradation in E. coli, revealing a mechanism for recognizing misfolded proteins.

The paper shows that C-terminal tails of membrane proteins influence post-translational insertion of transmembrane helices, with sequence changes causing functional defects and disease.

This study shows that autophagy in Arabidopsis affects aphid feeding and reproduction, with atg7.2 mutants showing higher hydrogen peroxide levels and altered metabolite profiles.

This study investigates diatom silica exocytosis, revealing that membrane homeostasis is maintained by discarding membrane patches rather than recycling them during the release of rigid silica cell walls.
