    N6-methyladenosine (m6A) reader Pho92 is recruited co-transcriptionally and couples translation to mRNA decay to promote meiotic fitness in yeast

    Radhika A Varier, Theodora Sideri ... Folkert J van Werven
    N6-methyladenosine (m6A) reader Pho92 is directed by Paf1C to meiotic mRNAs in an m6A-dependent and independent manner and promotes CCR4-NOT-mediated mRNA decay of m6A modified transcripts contingent on translation.

    GFPT2/GFAT2 and AMDHD2 act in tandem to control the hexosamine pathway

    Virginia Kroef, Sabine Ruegenberg ... Martin Sebastian Denzel
    AMDHD2 restricts the activity of the essential hexosamine pathway in mouse embryonic stem cells where GFPT2/GFAT2 instead of the common paralog GFPT1/GFAT1 controls metabolite entry.

    MondoA regulates gene expression in cholesterol biosynthesis-associated pathways required for zebrafish epiboly

    Meltem Weger, Benjamin D Weger ... Thomas Dickmeis
    The glucose-sensing transcription factor MondoA regulates zebrafish epiboly via cholesterol biosynthesis genes including the human disease gene Nsdhl, revealing an unknown role for metabolic glucose signalling in vertebrate development.

    Biosynthetic tailoring of existing ascaroside pheromones alters their biological function in C. elegans

    Yue Zhou, Yuting Wang ... Rebecca A Butcher
    In response to starvation, C. elegans converts a favorable pheromone that induces aggregation to an unfavorable one that induces a stress-resistant larval stage, thereby altering its chemical message without having to synthesize new pheromones de novo.

    Hyaluronic acid fuels pancreatic cancer cell growth

    Peter K Kim, Christopher J Halbrook ... Costas A Lyssiotis
    Pancreatic cancers can utilize hyaluronic acid, an abundant extracellular matrix component in the tumor microenvironment, to fuel cancer cell metabolism and growth.

    Structures of NF-κB p52 homodimer-DNA complexes rationalize binding mechanisms and transcription activation

    Wenfei Pan, Vladimir A Meshcheryakov ... Vivien Ya-Fan Wang
    Structural and biophysical characterization of NF-κB p52 in complex with closely related DNAs reveals the dynamic states of central base pair(s) have a strong influence on transcriptional activity of p52.

    Ca2+/CaM binding to CaMKI promotes IMA-3 importin binding and nuclear translocation in sensory neurons to control behavioral adaptation

    Domenica Ippolito, Saurabh Thapliyal, Dominique A Glauser
    Ca2+-dependent nuclear entry of Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase-1 in sensory neurons, taking place with a relatively slow kinetics, contributes to couple long-lasting sensory stimulations with signaling in the nucleus over a timescale relevant for sensory history-dependent plasticity.
