    PRDM9 activity depends on HELLS and promotes local 5-hydroxymethylcytosine enrichment

    Yukiko Imai, Mathilde Biot ... Bernard de Massy
    Biochemical and genetic approaches uncover a chromatin remodeler for PRDM9 binding and the parallel local epigenetic modification of cytosines in mouse spermatocytes.

    Early prediction of level-of-care requirements in patients with COVID-19

    Boran Hao, Shahabeddin Sotudian ... Ioannis Ch Paschalidis
    Using data for 2566 COVID-19 patients from five hospitals, models are developed to predict for each patient hospitalization and critical care needs, based on demographics, comorbidities, medications, and laboratory findings.

    Cellular taxonomy and spatial organization of the murine ventral posterior hypothalamus

    Laura E Mickelsen, William F Flynn ... Alexander C Jackson
    Single cell RNA–sequencing and neuroanatomical methods reveal unexpected molecular diversity and highly segregated spatial organization of neuronal cell types within the mouse ventral posterior hypothalamus, including the mammillary nuclei.

    Postnatal mechanical loading drives adaptation of tissues primarily through modulation of the non-collagenous matrix

    Danae E Zamboulis, Chavaunne T Thorpe ... Peter D Clegg
    Phase-specific mechanical and proteomic analyses reveal how tendon responds to its mechanical environment during postnatal development to meet functional requirements.

    Exploring chromosomal structural heterogeneity across multiple cell lines

    Ryan R Cheng, Vinicius G Contessoto ... Jose N Onuchic
    Chromosomal structural ensembles are fluid yet are cell-type-specific, despite apparent disorder, appropriate collective variables uncover evidence of structural transitions associated with gene activity and cell differentiation.

    RETRACTED: Amino acid synthesis loss in parasitoid wasps and other hymenopterans

    Xinhai Ye, Shijiao Xiong ... Fei Li
    The synthesis capability of some amino acids is lost during the insect evolution, and hymenopteran parasitoids can make up for these deficiencies by altering free amino acid concentrations in host.

    The HIV-1 latent reservoir is largely sensitive to circulating T cells

    Joanna A Warren, Shuntai Zhou ... Nilu Goonetilleke
    HIV-specific T cells remain detectable for years in HIV-infected individuals on antiretroviral therapy and importantly, mostly (68%) recognize HIV viruses that have the capacity to rebound following treatment interruption.

    GATA6 mutations in hiPSCs inform mechanisms for maldevelopment of the heart, pancreas, and diaphragm

    Arun Sharma, Lauren K Wasson ... Pediatric Cardiac Genomics Consortium
    Analyses of human stem cells with distinct GATA6 mutations revealed a spectrum of molecular responses that drive isolated congenital heart disease or the co-occurrence of pancreas and diaphragm malformations.

    Critical role of WNK1 in MYC-dependent early mouse thymocyte development

    Robert Köchl, Lesley Vanes ... Victor LJ Tybulewicz
    Development of mouse thymocytes through the pre-TCR checkpoint requires WNK1 kinase signalling via the OXSR1 and STK39 kinases and the SLC12A2 ion co-transporter leading to MYC-dependent cell proliferation.
