    Spatial integration of sensory input and motor output in Pseudomonas aeruginosa chemotaxis through colocalized distribution

    Zhengyu Wu, Maojin Tian ... Junhua Yuan
    In Pseudomonas aeruginosa, the chemoreceptor cluster and flagellar motor colocalize at the same cell pole through FlhF anchoring, preventing cross-pathway signaling interference between chemotaxis and c-di-GMP regulation.

    DNA methylation insulates genic regions from CTCF loops near nuclear speckles

    Shelby A Roseman, Allison P Siegenfeld ... Brian B Liau
    CTCF binding promotes chromatin-nuclear speckle interactions and gene activation after DNA demethylation, yet its binding and looping patterns are unaffected by speckle depletion.
