The Gr64 cluster of gustatory receptors promotes survival and proteostasis of epithelial cells in Drosophila. by Michael E Baumgartner, Alex Mastrogiannopoulos, Iwo Kucinski, Paul F Langton, Eugenia Piddini

“…Using heterozygous mutations in ribosome proteins (Rp), which have recently been shown to induce proteotoxic stress and protein aggregates in cells, we show that Rp/+ cells in Drosophila imaginal discs up-regulate expression of the entire Gr64 cluster and depend on these receptors for survival. We further show that loss of Gr64 in Rp/+ cells exacerbates stress pathway activation and proteotoxic stress by negatively affecting autophagy and proteasome function. …”

METTL1-mediated m7G tRNA modification drives papillary thyroid cancer progression and metastasis by regulating the codon-specific translation of TNF-α by Weiwei Li, Ruiwang Xie, Huaying Chen, Junyu Lin, Minjie Zhong, Junsi Zhang, Shengkai Zheng, Cen Jiang, Xiangjin Chen, Sunwang Xu

“…Here, we found that METTL1 is significantly upregulated in PTC tissues compared to normal control tissues and is associated with poor PTC prognosis. Functional analysis confirmed that METTL1 promotes the proliferation and metastasis of PTC cells in a manner dependent on its tRNA methyltransferase activity. …”
