    Large-scale cell-type-specific imaging of protein synthesis in a vertebrate brain

    Or David Shahar, Erin Margaret Schuman
    The development of a transgenic zebrafish allows for cell-type-specific labeling of neuronal protein synthesis, enabling brain-wide visualization and quantification of protein synthesis and demonstrating region-specific increases following elevated brain activity.

    3D visualization of macromolecule synthesis

    Timothy J Duerr, Ester Comellas ... James R Monaghan
    Whole mount 3D visualization of macromolecule synthesis with light sheet fluorescence microscopy enables quantitative, multiscale analysis at the organ, cellular, and molecular levels of organization.

    Robust membrane protein tweezers reveal the folding speed limit of helical membrane proteins

    Seoyoon Kim, Daehyo Lee ... Duyoung Min
    An exceedingly low speed limit was estimated for a helical hairpin formation by analyzing hours-long, incessant structural transitions.

    CRISPRi is not strand-specific at all loci and redefines the transcriptional landscape

    Françoise S Howe, Andrew Russell ... Jane Mellor
    CRISPR interference (CRISPRi), which uses small guide RNAs to target catalytically dead Cas9 protein to chromatin, disrupts existing transcription units and generates new sites for initiation and termination of transcription on both strands of DNA.

    Dual signaling via interferon and DNA damage response elicits entrapment by giant PML nuclear bodies

    Myriam Scherer, Clarissa Read ... Thomas Stamminger
    Characterization of PML subnuclear structures during human cytomegalovirus infection demonstrates that prolonged interferon and DNA damage signaling can induce giant PML nuclear bodies which sequentially entrap both nucleic acids and viral proteins as a cytoprotective mechanism.

    De novo synthesized polyunsaturated fatty acids operate as both host immunomodulators and nutrients for Mycobacterium tuberculosis

    Thomas Laval, Laura Pedró-Cos ... Caroline Demangel
    Infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis triggers de novo synthesis of polyunsaturated fatty acids by host macrophages, which promote their antimicrobial responses but feed the intracellular pathogen.

    Endomembrane targeting of human OAS1 p46 augments antiviral activity

    Frank W Soveg, Johannes Schwerk ... Ram Savan
    Prenylation of human oligoadenylate synthetase 1 isoform p46 mediates endomembrane targeting and increases its antiviral activity against positive-strand RNA viruses that utilize the host endomembrane system for replication.
