Deltaviruses spread through a viral Trojan Horse

This study shows deltaviruses use helper virus particles as Trojan Horses for cell entry, revealing a new mode of viral transmission.

The Nucleoporin MLP1 of the nuclear basket is essential for nuclear integrity and ploidy maintenance in Trypanosoma brucei

This study shows that MLP1, a nuclear pore complex protein in Trypanosoma brucei, is essential for nuclear integrity, mRNA export, and genome stability by maintaining proper chromosome segregation and ploidy.

Septin filament assembly assists the lateral organization of membranes

This study investigates how septins organize membranes through self-assembly and identifies key domains involved in membrane remodeling and curvature sensing in yeast.

T-type calcium channels participate in intrinsic and synaptic activity of PKCγ neurons of the dorsal horn of the spinal cord during chronic pain

This study investigates the role of T-type calcium channel Cav3.2 in PKCγ neurons of the spinal dorsal horn during chronic pain, showing its involvement in synaptic and intrinsic activity changes but not in firing properties.

A Sequence determinant in 3'UTR of mRNAs for Nuclear Retention by Paraspeckles

The paper identifies a 15-nucleotide sequence in the 3'UTR of calreticulin mRNA that mediates nuclear retention by paraspeckles and suggests HNRNPK as a bridging protein.
