    Selective dephosphorylation by PP2A-B55 directs the meiosis I-meiosis II transition in oocytes

    S Zachary Swartz, Hieu T Nguyen ... Arminja N Kettenbach
    Time-course phosphoproteomics reveals that selective dephosphorylation is critical for directing the MI/MII transition and that, through its inherent phospho-threonine preference, PP2A-B55 imposes specific phosphoregulated behaviors that distinguish the two meiotic divisions.

    McsB forms a gated kinase chamber to mark aberrant bacterial proteins for degradation

    Bence Hajdusits, Marcin J Suskiewicz ... Tim Clausen
    The McsB kinase is critical for protein quality control in Gram-positive bacteria, assembling a gated phosphorylation chamber during heat-shock conditions to selectively mark misfolded proteins for degradation.

    Receptor repertoires of murine follicular T helper cells reveal a high clonal overlap in separate lymph nodes in autoimmunity

    Markus Niebuhr, Julia Belde ... Kathrin Kalies
    Repertoires of autoreactive murine follicular T helper cells synchronize transiently within one individual.

    Insulin-producing β-cells regenerate ectopically from a mesodermal origin under the perturbation of hemato-endothelial specification

    Ka-Cheuk Liu, Alethia Villasenor ... Olov Andersson
    Genetic analyses revealed the remarkable plasticity of mesodermal cells to differentiate across the germ layers to form insulin-producing β-cells, which are normally of endodermal origin.

    An in vitro stem cell model of human epiblast and yolk sac interaction

    Kirsty ML Mackinlay, Bailey AT Weatherbee ... Magdalena Zernicka-Goetz
    Human yolk sac-like cells, which share characteristics with the post-implantation human hypoblast, can model the interaction between the epiblast and hypoblast that occurs during early human development.

    NF1 regulates mesenchymal glioblastoma plasticity and aggressiveness through the AP-1 transcription factor FOSL1

    Carolina Marques, Thomas Unterkircher ... Massimo Squatrito
    Neurofibromatosis type 1 gene (NF1) signaling is causally linked to the acquisition of a mesenchymal gene expression program in gliomas through the regulation of the AP-1 transcription factor FOSL1.

    Cis-regulatory variants affect gene expression dynamics in yeast

    Ching-Hua Shih, Justin Fay
    Allele differences in gene expression dynamics are associated with insertions and deletions and are caused in part by multiple variants within the same promoter region.

    CLAMP and Zelda function together to promote Drosophila zygotic genome activation

    Jingyue Duan, Leila Rieder ... Erica Larschan
    Maternal CLAMP functions as a novel pioneer transcription factor to open chromatin and plays a targeted yet essential role in Drosophila zygotic genome activation.

    Deep learning detects cardiotoxicity in a high-content screen with induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes

    Francis Grafton, Jaclyn Ho ... Mohammad Ali Mandegar
    Deep learning combined with induced pluripotent stem cell technology is an effective method to interrogate cellular phenotypes and predict patterns of cardiotoxicity in vitro.

    Characterization of cephalic and non-cephalic sensory cell types provides insight into joint photo- and mechanoreceptor evolution

    Roger Revilla-i-Domingo, Vinoth Babu Veedin Rajan ... Kristin Tessmar-Raible
    Molecular, cellular and behavioral genetic approaches in Platynereis dumerilii indicate that r-Opsins can act as ancient, light-dependent modulators of mechanosensation, and suggest that light-independent mechanosensory roles of r-Opsins evolved secondarily.
