CD39 is expressed on functional effector and tissue resident memory CD8+ T cells

J. F. Isaacs, H. N. Degefu, T. Chen, S. A. Kleist, S. C. Musial, M. A. Ford, T. G. Searles, C.-C. Lin, A. G. J. Skorput, K. Shirai, M. J. Turk, G. J. Zanazzi, P. Rosato

This study identifies CD39 expression on functional effector and tissue-resident memory CD8+ T cells, showing its role in memory differentiation and function, distinct from its role in T cell exhaustion.

Cytosolic heme metabolism by alternative localization of heme oxygenase 1 in plant cells

Y. Chen, K. Nishimura, M. Tokizawa, Y. Y. Yamamoto, Y. Oka, T. Matsushita, K. Hanada, K. Shirai, S. Mano, T. Masuda

The paper identifies two HO1 transcripts in Arabidopsis and rice with distinct subcellular localizations and shows that cytosolic heme metabolism occurs during etiolation and early development.
