Circadian clocks maintain the correct period despite nutritional fluctuations, a property known as metabolic compensation (MC). In a recent report, Sárkány et al. reveal a conserved role for Ras guanine nucleotide exchange factor (RasGEF)...

The hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs) are central transcriptional mediators of the cellular response to hypoxia. HIF activation typically drives a physiologically beneficial adaptive response to hypoxia. However, within solid tumors, the HIF...

Installation of unnatural chemical motifs and structures into proteins in living cells is challenging. Recent work by Beyer et al. demonstrated programmable protein editing by installing two split intein pairs into a protein of interest, wh...

Cook et al. show that the VPS15 pseudokinase domain binds GTP and sequesters its covalently-linked N-terminal myristate. Together, this enforces VPS15 conformations that interact with and stabilize inactive VPS34 kinase domain conformations...
