Dysregulation of Caveolin-1 (CAV1), a key component of caveolae, leads to pleiotropic disorders; yet, the mechanisms controlling its trafficking remain unclear. Here, we show that the lipid droplet (LD) biogenesis factor seipin controls CAV1 localization. Seipin deficiency in mice and HeLa cells ...
The PD-1/PD-L1 axis represents a cornerstone of cancer immunotherapy, yet the dynamic shuttling of PD-L1 between endosomal recycling and lysosomal degradation routes limits durable responses. Using a CRISPR screen targeting glycosphingolipid metabolism, we identify TM9SF2 as a key regulator of PD...
Regulatory T cells (Tregs) expand during Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection and suppress T cell mediated control. Whether Mtb actively contributes to this process is unclear. Here, using a genome-wide mutant library, we show that expression of Mtb Rv1272c, an ATP-binding cassette transpor...
