    Abstract Nucleocytoplasmic shuttling is prevalent among many cell cycle regulators controlling the G2/M transition. Shuttling of cyclin/cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) complexes is thought to provide access to substrates stably located in either compartment. Because cyclin/CDK shuttles between cellular compartments, an upstream regulator that is fixed in one compartment could in principle affect the entire cyclin/CDK pool. Alternatively, the regulators themselves may need to shuttle to effectively regulate their moving target. Here, we identify localization motifs in the budding yeast Swe1p (Wee1) and Mih1p (Cdc25) cell cycle regulators. Replacement of endogenous Swe1p or Mih1p with mutants impaired in nuclear import or export revealed that the nuclear pools of Swe1p and Mih1p were more effective in CDK regulation than were the cytoplasmic pools. Nevertheless, shuttling of cyclin/CDK complexes was sufficiently rapid to coordinate nuclear and cytoplasmic events even when Swe1p or Mih1p were restricted to one compartment. Additionally, we found that Swe1p nuclear export was important for its degradation. Because Swe1p degradation is regulated by cytoskeletal stress, shuttling of Swe1p between nucleus and cytoplasm serves to couple cytoplasmic stress to nuclear cyclin/CDK inhibition.

    Abstract Background: Several checkpoint pathways employ Wee1-mediated inhibitory tyrosine phosphorylation of cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) to restrain cell-cycle progression. Whereas in vertebrates this strategy can delay both DNA replication and mitosis, in yeast cells only mitosis is delayed. This is particularly surprising because yeasts, unlike vertebrates, employ a single family of cyclins (B type) and the same CDK to promote both S phase and mitosis. The G2-specific arrest could be explained in two fundamentally different ways: tyrosine phosphorylation of cyclin/CDK complexes could leave sufficient residual activity to promote S phase, or S phase-promoting cyclin/CDK complexes could somehow be protected from checkpoint-induced tyrosine phosphorylation.
    Results: We demonstrate that in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, several cyclin/CDK complexes are protected from inhibitory tyrosine phosphorylation, allowing Clb5,6p to promote DNA replication and Clb3,4p to promote spindle assembly, even under checkpoint-inducing conditions that block nuclear division. In vivo, S phase-promoting Clb5p/Cdc28p complexes were phosphorylated more slowly and dephosphorylated more effectively than were mitosis-promoting Clb2p/Cdc28p complexes. Moreover, we show that the CDK inhibitor (CKI) Sic1p protects bound Clb5p/Cdc28p complexes from tyrosine phosphorylation, allowing the accumulation of unphosphorylated complexes that are unleashed when Sic1p is degraded to promote S phase. The vertebrate CKI p27(Kip1) similarly protects Cyclin A/Cdk2 complexes from Wee1, suggesting that the antagonism between CKIs and Wee1 is evolutionarily conserved.
    Conclusions: In yeast cells, the combination of CKI binding and preferential phosphorylation/dephosphorylation of different B cyclin/CDK complexes renders S phase progression immune from checkpoints acting via CDK tyrosine phosphorylation.

    Abstract The aim of this review is to specify new potential reliable and non-invasive methods for the diagnosis of biliary atresia (BA) that could shorten the way to diagnose BA, and finally the surgical treatment. Apart from the biomarkers that have been proven helpful and are used nowadays in neonatal wards, there are several new potential biomarkers that researchers have found to be helpful in the diagnosis of biliary atresia. Circulating microRNAs, matrix metalloproteinase-7, stool proteins, interleukin-33, Th17-associated cytokines, urinary metabolomics, anti-smooth muscle antibodies, heat shock proteins 90 and positive biliary epithelial cells CD56 are among those presented in this summary. These markers may play a new significant role in BA diagnosis. The described methods include Nomogram, Circulating microRNAs (miRNAs), Matrix metalloproteinase-7 (MMP-7), Stool proteins, Interleukin-33 (IL-33), Th17-associated cytokines, Alpha-aminoadipic acid and N-acetyl-d-mannosamine in urine, Anti-smooth muscle antibodies (ASMA), Heat shock proteins 90 (HSP90), Positive biliary epithelial cells CD56.

    Abstract The past decade has brought many innovations in optical design for 3D super-resolution imaging of point-like emitters, but these methods often focus on single-emitter localization precision as a performance metric. Here, we propose a simple heuristic for designing a point spread function (PSF) that allows for precise measurement of the distance between two emitters. We discover that there are two types of PSFs that achieve high performance for resolving emitters in 3D, as quantified by the Cramér-Rao bounds for estimating the separation between two closely spaced emitters. One PSF is very similar to the existing Tetrapod PSFs; the other is a rotating single-spot PSF, which we call the crescent PSF. The latter exhibits excellent performance for localizing single emitters throughout a 1-µm focal volume (localization precisions of 7.3 nm in x, 7.7 nm in y, and 18.3 nm in z using 1000 detected photons), and it distinguishes between one and two closely spaced emitters with superior accuracy (25-53% lower error rates than the best-performing Tetrapod PSF, averaged throughout a 1-µm focal volume). Our study provides additional insights into optimal strategies for encoding 3D spatial information into optical PSFs.

    Abstract In this commentary, we set out the specifics of how Glowacki's game theoretical framework for the evolution of peace could be incorporated within broader cultural evolutionary approaches. We outline a formal proposal for prisoner's dilemma games investigating raid-based conflict. We also centre an ethnographic lens to understand the norms surrounding war and peace in intergroup interactions in small-scale communities.
