The long-range resection machinery is dispensable for homologous recombination between closely linked repeats but is necessary for DNA damage checkpoint activation which is associated with interchromosomal recombination.
A group of neurons in the medulla expressing the tachykinin precursor 1 promote rhythmic breathing, but also elicit substantial motor behaviors, suggesting a dual role for these neurons in the medulla.

Combining computational and experimental approaches reveals that the loss of a maternal transcription factor influences sex-biased differential splicing in the early zygotic transcriptome at genes that are critical for normal developmental processes.
Inhibiting RNA N6-methyladenosine demethylase ALKBH5 promoted axonal regeneration of dorsal root ganglion neurons by regulating stability of Lpin2 mRNA and enhanced the survival and axonal regeneration of retinal ganglion cells.

Cryo-EM structures reveal GC-C associates with regulatory heat shock proteins similarly to bona fide protein kinases and this can guide the further development of mGC-targeted therapeutics.
The hexametric structures of MCM8/9, revealed through cryo-electron microscopy single particle analysis, provide a foundational understanding of its helicase activity and offer novel insights into its mechanistic role.
Understanding novel cell types and their evolutionary history is re-evaluated using single nuclei transcriptomic approaches and their inferred underlying gene regulatory networks.
