Targeting lipid signalling in disease
A free poster from Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology
This free poster from Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology provides an overview of the protein lipid signalling network, and how this network can be exploited pharmacologically to attenuate proliferative, inflammatory and metabolic diseases.

Registries and banks p111
The European Registry for Human Embryonic Stem Cells (hESCreg)
adds an important global resource to the fragmented landscape
of stem cell research.

Telomeric RNA enters the game pp113 - 115
Two studies report expression of telomeric-repeat-containing
RNAs in vertebrates. This discovery challenges the long-standing
notion that telomeres are transcriptionally inert.

Outsourcing CREB translation to axons to survive pp115 - 118
Nerve growth factor induces sensory neuron survival via
retrograde signalling from the axon to the cell body.
Local translation of the transcription factor CREB in the
axon, followed by its transport to the nucleus,
is involved in this process.

Facing up to Mena: Tes(ting) times for EVH1 domains pp118 - 120
Ena/VASP family members have a common binding interface
on their EVH1 domains for FPPPP motifs in partner proteins.
The finding that Tes, a protein lacking FPPPP motifs, competes
specifically for the FPPPP ligand site on Mena, provides new
insights into the differential regulation of Ena/VASP proteins.

Green light for chloroplast outer-membrane proteins pp120 - 122
Most chloroplast proteins are encoded in the cell nucleus,
translated in the cytosol, and targeted to the organelle in a
post-translational manner. Our understanding of how proteins
are targeted to the outer envelope membrane of chloroplasts
has been improved with the identification of a specific
soluble sorting factor.

Heads or tails: can Wnt tell which one is up? pp122 - 124
Planarian flatworms regenerate their heads and tails after
amputation. It turns out that they use Wnt-beta-catenin
signalling to determine where the head and the tail should form.

ERK and MDM2 prey on FOXO3a pp125 - 126
Constitutively active ERK signalling stimulates cell
proliferation, thereby contributing to tumorigenesis. We
now learn that ERK activity induces phosphorylation and
MDM2-mediated degradation of the tumour-suppressing transcription
factor FOXO3a, thus gaining new information on valuable targets
for human cancer therapeutic intervention.
