Filament formation and NAD processing by noncanonical human FAM118 sirtuins

Baretić and Missoury et al. identify vertebrate proteins FAM118B and FAM118A as sirtuins similar to bacterial antiphage enzymes and show that FAM118A/B processing of NAD involves head-to-tail filament formation and a partnership between the two paralogs.

Engineering T cells with a membrane-tethered version of SLP-76 overcomes antigen-low resistance to CAR T cell therapy

Majzner and colleagues show that engineering T cells with a membrane-tethered version of the signaling adaptor molecule SLP-76 alongside a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) enhances CAR T cell activity against low-antigen-density tumors.
