Stress granules and cell signaling: more than just a passing phase?

TL;DR: It is argued that stress granules constitute RNA-centric signaling hubs analogous to classical multiprotein signaling domains such as transmembrane receptor complexes and may require a cytosolic phase transition facilitated by intrinsically disordered, aggregation-prone protein regions shared by RNA-binding and signaling proteins.

Recurrent mutations in epigenetic regulators, rhoa and fyn kinase in peripheral t-cell lymphomas

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors identified highly recurrent epigenetic factor mutations in TET2, DN-MT3A and IDH2 as well as a new highly prevalent RHOA p.Gly17Val (NM_001664) mutation present in 22/35 (67%) of angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphomas (AITL) and in 8/44 (18%) not otherwise specified PTCL (PTCL NOS) samples.

Nongenomic actions of thyroid hormone.

TL;DR: Nongenomic actions expand the repertoire of cellular events controlled by thyroid hormone and can modulate TR-dependent nuclear events.

Rho GTPases in cell biology.

TL;DR: Rho GTPases are molecular switches that control a wide variety of signal transduction pathways in all eukaryotic cells and their ability to influence cell polarity, microtubule dynamics, membrane transport pathways and transcription factor activity is probably just as significant.

The small GTP-binding protein rho regulates the assembly of focal adhesions and actin stress fibers in response to growth factors.

TL;DR: Rho, a ras-related GTP-binding protein, rapidly stimulated stress fiber and focal adhesion formation when microinjected into serum-starved Swiss 3T3 cells, implying that rho is essential specifically for the coordinated assembly of focal adhesions and stress fibers induced by growth factors.

Cell Migration: A Physically Integrated Molecular Process

TL;DR: The authors are grateful for financial support from the National Institutes of Health (grants GM23244 and GM53905), and to very helpful comments on the manuscript from Elliot Elson, Vlodya Gelfand, Paul Matsudaira, Julie Theriot, and Sally Zigmond.

The small GTP-binding protein rac regulates growth factor-induced membrane ruffling.

TL;DR: It is proposed that rac and rho are essential components of signal transduction pathways linking growth factors to the organization of polymerized actin and that growth factors act through rac to stimulate this rho-dependent response.
