Polyphosphate (polyP) exists in all life forms; however, its biological functions in metazoans are understudied. Here, we explored Drosophila as the first genetic model to explore polyP biology in ...

This paper presents the important finding that BNIP3/NIX, a mitophagy receptor, and its binding to ATG18 are required for mitophagy during muscle cell reorganization in Drosophila. Although the ...

A new review highlights the pivotal role of LSD1 (lysine-specific demethylase 1) in regulating critical cellular processes ...

It was expected that by analysing the characteristics of chromosome and nucleolus behaviour, abnormalities specific to the internal organization of tumour cells might be detected. The present ...

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNA) are a type of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) that exceed 200 nucleotides in length. lncRNAs are a relatively abundant component of the mammalian transcriptome and have been ...

2 Some permanent and long-recognised cell structures, such as the nucleolus where ribosomes are formed, are now known to be condensates, and many others have been identified since such liquid-like ...

This year marks the 20th anniversary of the discovery that the nucleolus can temporarily immobilize proteins, a process known as nucleolar sequestration. This review reflects on the progress made to ...
