    Autosomal allelic inactivation at loci with variable replication timing and dosage sensitivity

    Michael B Heskett, Athanasios E Vouzas ... Mathew J Thayer
    Stable allele-specific epigenetic regulation creates cellular mosaicism of numerous autosomal dosage-sensitive genes involved in human neurological and developmental disorders.

    Proteomic composition and mutual assembly of the C2a projection in vertebrate motile cilia

    Qian Lyu, Qingchao Li ... Huijie Zhao
    Deficiency in any of the interdependent C2a proteins (CCDC108, MYCBPAP, and CFAP70) collapses this central pair microtubule-associated projection, disrupting vertebrate ciliary movement, and causing primary ciliary dyskinesia phenotypes in mice.

    Cribriform plate microenvironment assembles a suppressive myeloid network during EAE-induced neuroinflammation

    Collin Laaker, Martin Hsu ... Zsuzsanna Fabry
    Regulatory immune cells accumulate at the nose-to-brain interface during neuroinflammation, potentially dampening damaging immune responses.

    Lenacapavir-induced lattice hyperstabilization is central to HIV-1 capsid failure at the nuclear pore complex and in the cytoplasm

    Arpa Hudait, Ryan C Burdick ... Gregory A Voth
    Lenacapavir disrupts HIV-1 capsid elasticity, inducing mechanical rupture at the nuclear pore, highlighting that altering viral material properties can be a viable antiviral drug design strategy.

    TGF-β drives the conversion of conventional NK cells into uterine tissue-resident NK cells to support murine pregnancy

    Josselyn D Barahona, Liping Yang ... Wayne M Yokoyama
    Uterine natural killer (NK) cells require TGF-β to be derived from conventional NK cells and contribute to successful pregnancy.

    Visual working memory guides attention rhythmically in humans

    Jiachen Lu, Yaochun Cai, Xilin Zhang
    Working memory alternates between remembered items in a rhythmic theta cycle.

    Profiling of terminating ribosomes reveals translational control at stop codons

    Longfei Jia, Yuanhui Mao ... Shu-Bing Qian
    Systematic characterization of terminating ribosomes uncovers sequence features influencing ribosome dynamics at stop codons with direct implications in 3' UTR translation.
    1. Chromosomes and Gene Expression

    Impacts of DNA methylation on H2A.Z deposition and nucleosome stability

    Rochelle M Shih, Yasuhiro Arimura ... Hironori Funabiki
    DNA methylation suppresses H2A.Z deposition by inhibiting recruitment of the chaperone SRCAP, while the structural study suggests that methylated DNA can make the H2A.Z nucleosome slightly more accessible.
    1. Genetics and Genomics

    Optimised genome editing for precise DNA insertion and substitution using prime editors in zebrafish

    Yosuke Ono, Martin Peterka ... Steffen Scholpp
    Nickase and nuclease Prime Editors offer complementary routes for precise zebrafish genome editing, balancing accuracy for substitutions with efficiency for short insertions.

    Ligand-dependent enhancer activation indirectly modulates non-target promoters in a chromatin domain

    Darshika Bohra, Zubairul Islam ... Dimple Notani
    Ligand-driven enhancer activation selectively boosts target gene expression while indirectly repressing neighboring non-target genes, revealing dynamic and competitive regulation during early transcriptional responses.
