Synthetic proteins designed to bind specific repetitive DNA sequences in the Trypanosoma brucei genome allow the identification of proteins enriched over different DNA elements.
Proteome-scale visual screening in budding yeast provides a functional catalog of plasma membrane repair proteins and reveals the coordinated cellular responses at the bud tip and the damage site.
Comprehensive mapping of wing sensory neurons in Drosophila reveals that some proprioceptors make direct connections onto flight steering motor neurons, enabling rapid feedback control during flight.
Y-complex nucleoporin, Nup107, can regulate ecdysone production by affecting the transcription of Halloween genes and levels of RTK receptor, torso, for the metamorphic transition from larva to pupa.

EPB41L4A-AS1, a highly expressed snoRNA host long noncoding RNA, has multiple functions, positive regulation in cis of the EPB41L4A gene and a trans-acting role in supporting proper nucleolar biology.

Automated detection of metallophore biosynthesis reveals that metal-chelating non-ribosomal peptides are widespread, chemically diverse, and deeply rooted in bacterial evolution.
Stress activates a locus coeruleus–spinal dorsal horn noradrenergic circuit that drives mechanical pain hypersensitivity through Hes5-positive astrocytes.
A conserved glucagon signaling pathway links high-fat diet-induced metabolic imbalance to cardiac arrhythmia through hormone-producing cells and heart-innervating neurons that regulate rhythmicity.

Loss of foxf2 in zebrafish leads to a reduced pericyte progenitor pool in embryos and progresses to severe cerebrovascular defects over the lifespan, suggesting that cerebral small vessel disease in adults has roots in development.
