We report the visualization and quantification of PGE2 secreted by epithelial cells. A single calcium spike causes a cell to secrete 0.25 fmol PGE2, or 150 million PGE2, which activates PKA in 1000 neighboring cells. https://t.co/jOaX6cM9VZ

Sakaue-Sawano and Miyawaki have published a paper describing a new cell cycle biosensor, Fucci5. In addition to the improved sensitivity, the new Fucci is free from the patents of fluorescent proteins, paving the way to the commercial use!
At last week's meeting of the Japanese Society for Cell Biology, the CSF Awards were presented to Dr. Ryosuke Nishimura and Dr. Satoru Takahash. Both received recommendations from over 20 council members. Congratulations!

An excellent review paper on lipid modification of proteins from Mizushima Lab! I remember we fused CAAX box to a lot of proteins hoping to make them activated long time ago.
A bright and tightly regulated light-inducible transcription system by Itaru Imayoshi Lab. The ON/OFF rate of the new eGAV system was improved by more than 10-fold in comparison with the former hGAVPO system more than 10 folds. Congratulations!

Professor Miko Furuse has published an excellent original article as the first author. He showed the redundancy and specificity of claudin proteins by using quintriplet knock-out MDCK cells. Congratulations!
