    The Hippo pathway controls myofibril assembly and muscle fiber growth by regulating sarcomeric gene expression

    Aynur Kaya-Çopur, Fabio Marchiano ... Frank Schnorrer
    Muscle fiber growth during development is controlled by the Hippo pathway that links the assembly state of the contractile sarcomeres with the transcriptional state of the sarcomeric genes.

    Mechanisms of nucleotide selection by telomerase

    Matthew A Schaich, Samantha L Sanford ... Bret D Freudenthal
    The roles of key telomerase active site residues were elucidated to determine how telomerase selects the correct from the incorrect nucleotide to maintain telomere integrity.

    Dopamine neuron morphology and output are differentially controlled by mTORC1 and mTORC2

    Polina Kosillo, Kamran M Ahmed ... Helen S Bateup
    Chronic inhibition of mTORC1 signaling strongly affects the morphology, physiology and output of dopamine neurons leading to impaired dopaminergic function in mice.

    Aberrant cortical development is driven by impaired cell cycle and translational control in a DDX3X syndrome model

    Mariah L Hoye, Lorenzo Calviello ... Debra L Silver
    The RNA helicase DDX3X controls neural progenitor division, cell fate, and translation during embryonic brain development.

    Hox-dependent coordination of mouse cardiac progenitor cell patterning and differentiation

    Sonia Stefanovic, Brigitte Laforest ... Stephane Zaffran
    Discovering that Hoxb1 acts as a repressor of cardiac differentiation on second heart field progenitor cells helps us to understand the etiology of congenital heart defects such as atrioventricular septal defects.

    Environmentally sensitive hotspots in the methylome of the early human embryo

    Matt J Silver, Ayden Saffari ... Andrew M Prentice
    259 CpGs associated with season of conception in rural Gambians constitute a valuable resource for investigating epigenetic mechanisms linking early exposures to lifelong health and disease.

    Invariant neural subspaces maintained by feedback modulation

    Laura B Naumann, Joram Keijser, Henning Sprekeler
    Feedback-driven gain modulation provides a mechanism to generate and maintain invariant sensory representations in the presence of contextual changes by dynamically adapting feedforward sensory processing.

    Reorganization of postmitotic neuronal chromatin accessibility for maturation of serotonergic identity

    Xinrui L Zhang, William C Spencer ... Evan S Deneris
    Terminal selectors reorganize postmitotic neuronal chromatin to select cis-regulatory elements during 5-HT neuron maturation.

    A Plasmodium falciparum MORC protein complex modulates epigenetic control of gene expression through interaction with heterochromatin

    Maneesh Kumar Singh, Victoria Ann Bonnell ... Celia RS Garcia
    Multi-omic analyses reveal that the chromatin-associated microrchidia protein, MORC (PF3D7_1468100), at the blood stage of the human malaria parasite, Plasmodium falciparum, interacts with a range of nuclear proteins.
