A long-standing mystery in cholesterol biology: why is ER cholesterol sensing so switch-like rather than gradual? Our answer: cholesteryl ester phase separation in the ER membrane, which converts small lipid changes into a cooperative transcriptional response. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

ER cholesteryl ester phase separation underlies switch-like cholesterol sensing
Cellular lipid homeostasis requires mechanisms that detect subtle changes in lipid abundance and trigger rapid, coordinated responses. The INSIG/SCAP/SREBP2 pathway provides a central feedback system ...

Today we are very pleased to share our latest article available now online @narjournal.bsky.social about the role of Slx4 scaffold and Fun30 (SMARCAD1 homolog) in DNA damage response regulation and replication fork protection against Top1-DNA crosslinks. academic.oup.com/nar/article/...
- Checkpoint signaling slows down replication in response to Top1 poisoning by camptothecin. 
- Checkpoint signaling is actively dampened by Slx4 and Fun30 to permit Exo1-dependent resection of replication forks. 
- Checkpoint dampening is critical to promote replication fork protection and preserve genome stability.
