    Atrophin controls developmental signaling pathways via interactions with Trithorax-like

    Kelvin Yeung, Ann Boija ... Helen McNeill
    ChIP-seq and phenotypic analyses reveal Atrophin from Drosophila directly regulates Notch and Dpp signaling components, and engrailed gene expression, via interactions with GAGA Factor.

    Adipokinetic hormone signaling mediates the enhanced fecundity of Diaphorina citri infected by ‘Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus’

    Jiayun Li, Paul Holford ... Xiaoge Nian
    Molecular mechanism that Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus improves the lipid metabolism and fecundity of Diaphorina citri through adipokinetic hormone and its receptor.

    TRIM28 promotes HIV-1 latency by SUMOylating CDK9 and inhibiting P-TEFb

    Xiancai Ma, Tao Yang ... Hui Zhang
    TRIM28 was found to be a versatile dual-function latency contributor by bridging both suppressive epigenetic modifications and RNAP II transcriptional-pausing, and can be a novel target to develop latency-reversing agents.

    Molecular architecture of human polycomb repressive complex 2

    Claudio Ciferri, Gabriel C Lander ... Eva Nogales
    Electron microscopy has been used to produce the first three-dimensional image of the PRC2 gene-silencing complex.

    Dual separable feedback systems govern firing rate homeostasis

    Yelena Kulik, Ryan Jones ... Graeme W Davis
    A new mechanistic framework for considering the homeostatic control of neuronal firing rates is presented.

    Neuroblast-specific open chromatin allows the temporal transcription factor, Hunchback, to bind neuroblast-specific loci

    Sonia Q Sen, Sachin Chanchani ... Chris Q Doe
    Spatial factors generate neuroblast-specific open chromatin, thereby biasing the subsequent binding of transcription factors to produce neuroblast-specific neurons.

    HDAC1 SUMOylation promotes Argonaute-directed transcriptional silencing in C. elegans

    Heesun Kim, Yue-He Ding ... Craig C Mello
    HDAC SUMOylation promotes the association of other chromatin remodeling factors with the nuclear Argonaute WAGO-9, which is required for de novo heterochromatin silencing.

    Predictive modeling reveals that higher-order cooperativity drives transcriptional repression in a synthetic developmental enhancer

    Yang Joon Kim, Kaitlin Rhee ... Hernan G Garcia
    The combination of theoretical modeling and quantitative live imaging revealed that the repressor proteins work cooperatively or anti-cooperatively depending on enhancer architecture.

    Concentration dependent chromatin states induced by the bicoid morphogen gradient

    Colleen E Hannon, Shelby A Blythe, Eric F Wieschaus
    Interplay between protein concentration, DNA binding and remodeling of the chromatin landscape in early embryogenesis determines how a single transcription factor can specify multiple distinct gene expression states.
