COVER This week's issue features a Research Article that demonstrates that the ubiquitin ligase Nedd4 is essential for proper functioning of the insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) and insulin pathways in mice, thus positively influencing animal growth. When Nedd4 is absent, Grb10 and IGF-1 receptors colocalize intracellularly and the receptors do not appear at the cell surface. The image shows a Nedd4-deficient mouse embryonic fibroblast stained for the IGF-1 receptor (red) and Grb10 (green). [Image: Baoli Yang, University of Iowa, USA] |
