Nickase and nuclease Prime Editors offer complementary routes for precise zebrafish genome editing, balancing accuracy for substitutions with efficiency for short insertions.
Although auditory encoding of music is robust early in infancy, the transformation of this input into movement patterns develops substantially over the first postnatal year, without reaching full maturity.
Systematic characterization of terminating ribosomes uncovers sequence features influencing ribosome dynamics at stop codons with direct implications in 3' UTR translation.

Membrane insertion of Dyngo-4a results in a dynamin-independent inhibition of caveola dynamics, revealing that outer leaflet lipid packing in the plasma membrane contributes to the confinement of caveolae.
Genetic experiments integrated with ChIP-sequencing and CRISPR interference reveal that overexpression of Foxc1 transcriptionally activates the expression of Arhgap36 and dysregulates multiple facets of Hedgehog pathway activity.
