    Svep1 is a binding ligand of Tie1 and affects specific aspects of facial lymphatic development in a Vegfc-independent manner

    Melina Hußmann, Dörte Schulte ... Stefan Schulte-Merker
    Tie1 is a binding partner for Svep1 in zebrafish and humans, and both genes (but not Tie2) are required during zebrafish lymphangiogenesis especially for the facial lymphatics, which in part develop independent of Vegfc.

    Human thymopoiesis produces polyspecific CD8+ α/β T cells responding to multiple viral antigens

    Valentin Quiniou, Pierre Barennes ... David Klatzmann
    The thymic selection of the human T-cell receptor repertoire releases polyspecific receptors with the ability to recognize and respond to peptides from unrelated viruses.

    FER-mediated phosphorylation and PIK3R2 recruitment on IRS4 promotes AKT activation and tumorigenesis in ovarian cancer cells

    Yanchun Zhang, Xuexue Xiong ... Gaofeng Fan
    Beyond its well-accepted function in metastasis, non-receptor tyrosine kinase FER also controls ovarian tumor cell proliferation through FER-IRS4-AKT signaling axis, making itself as a promising druggable target for the disease.

    Proteolysis of fibrillin-2 microfibrils is essential for normal skeletal development

    Timothy J Mead, Daniel R Martin ... Suneel S Apte
    Proteolytic cleavage of the extracellular matrix glycoprotein fibrillin-2 by the secreted metalloprotease ADAMTS6 influences skeletal development by modulating fibrillin microfibril abundance and GDF5/BMP signaling, illustrating the crucial role of extracellular matrix proteostatic mechanisms in growth factor regulation during morphogenesis.

    Evolution of natural lifespan variation and molecular strategies of extended lifespan in yeast

    Alaattin Kaya, Cheryl Zi Jin Phua ... Vadim N Gladyshev
    Analysis of molecular signatures of lifespan variation across wild yeast isolates revealed how Nature employs environment to modify genotype, gene expression, and metabolome to arrive at different lifespan, while preserving fitness in various ecological niches.

    MACF1 controls skeletal muscle function through the microtubule-dependent localization of extra-synaptic myonuclei and mitochondria biogenesis

    Alireza Ghasemizadeh, Emilie Christin ... Vincent Gache
    Maintenance of peripheral myonuclei patterning in skeletal myofibers is dependent on the regulation of microtubules dynamic and nuclei motion and is essential for proper neuromuscular junction integrity and mitochondria homeostasis.

    Human ORC/MCM density is low in active genes and correlates with replication time but does not delimit initiation zones

    Nina Kirstein, Alexander Buschle ... Aloys Schepers
    Replication origins are established throughout the genome with the exception of transcribed genes, and the local chromatin composition likely modulates the density of ORC and MCM as well as origin activation.

    Single-cell RNA-seq reveals transcriptomic heterogeneity mediated by host–pathogen dynamics in lymphoblastoid cell lines

    Elliott D SoRelle, Joanne Dai ... Micah A Luftig
    Single-cell RNA sequencing highlights the influence of host–pathogen interactions and stochasticity on transcriptional and phenotypic variance in lymphoblastoid cell lines derived from Epstein–Barr virus-infected primary B cells.

    Quantitative glycoproteomics reveals cellular substrate selectivity of the ER protein quality control sensors UGGT1 and UGGT2

    Benjamin M Adams, Nathan P Canniff ... Daniel N Hebert
    Natural substrates of the central endoplasmic reticulum quality control glycoprotein sensors UDP-glucose:glycoproteinglucosyltransferase (UGGT)1 and UGGT2 were identified using a glycoproteomics approach and the role for their modification was explored.

    New insights on the modeling of the molecular mechanisms underlying neural maps alignment in the midbrain

    Elise Laura Savier, James Dunbar ... Michael Reber
    A dominant sensory map provides positional information through correlated activity and transposed molecular cues to guide secondary sensory projections for alignment and organization.
