The Zelcer lab's study describing the structure of SPRING and S1P is out. This was a great collaboration with Daniel Kober (UTSW) who is a biochemsitry and CryoEM wizard. This study provides th structural basis for the role SPRING has in proteolytic maturation of the S1P zymogen, and why SPRING is required for S1P-mediated cleavage of the SREBP transcription factors. Enjoy the reading and let us know what you think of this:

Paper accepted in Current Opinion in Lipidology! Our review article together with Daniel Kober’s group (UTSW) summarizing recent mechanistic and structural findings on the SPRING-S1P-SREBP axis is now out. If you want to understand how this system works have a look. Congrats to Ilaria Micallo and Ashley Bullington for putting this together!
