Crystal structure of rhodopsin bound to arrestin by femtosecond X-ray laser

Yanyong Kang, +71 more
- 30 Jul 2015 - 
TL;DR: The crystal structure of a constitutively active form of human rhodopsin bound to a pre-activated form of the mouse visual arrestin is determined by serial femtosecond X-ray laser crystallography and provides a basis for understanding GPCR-mediated arrestin-biased signalling.
Journal ArticleDOI

Autophagy in cancer

TL;DR: Recent progress on the role of autophagy in tumorigenesis and cancer therapy is summarized.
Journal ArticleDOI

ATG14 controls SNARE-mediated autophagosome fusion with a lysosome.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that fusogenic activity of the autophagic SNARE complex is temporally and spatially controlled by ATG14/Barkor/Atg14L, an essential autophagy-specific regulator of the class III phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase complex (PtdIns3K).
Journal ArticleDOI

Anatomy of autophagy: from the beginning to the end

TL;DR: The hallmark events involved in autophagy, from its initiation, to the final destruction of engulfed targets are described and rationale as to how they control autophagic events in a highly ordered manner is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structural Conservation of Ligand Binding Reveals a Bile Acid-like Signaling Pathway in Nematodes

TL;DR: Results reveal the molecular mechanism for the interplay between parasite and host, provide a structural framework for DAF-12 as a promising target in treating nematode parasitism, and provide insight into the evolution of gut parasite hormone-signaling pathways.
