    Glycan processing in the Golgi as optimal information coding that constrains cisternal number and enzyme specificity

    Alkesh Yadav, Quentin Vagne ... Madan Rao
    A mathematical model of glycosylation in the Golgi apparatus to investigate how the fidelity of synthesising a complex glycan distribution at the plasma membrane depends on parameters such as the number of Golgi cisternae or enzyme specificity.

    A randomized multiplex CRISPRi-Seq approach for the identification of critical combinations of genes

    Nicole A Ellis, Kevin S Myers ... Matthias P Machner
    A randomized CRISPR-based gene silencing approach overcomes functional redundancy and discovers virulence-critical gene combinations in the pathogen Legionella pneumophila.

    Tissue-specific targeting of DNA nanodevices in a multicellular living organism

    Kasturi Chakraborty, Palapuravan Anees ... Yamuna Krishnan
    DNA nanodevices can be targeted to specific cell types in Caenorhabditis elegans with subcellular precision by exploiting either endogenous or synthetic receptors.

    A map of human PRDM9 binding provides evidence for novel behaviors of PRDM9 and other zinc-finger proteins in meiosis

    Nicolas Altemose, Nudrat Noor ... Simon R Myers
    In humans, specific sequence features can predict whether meiotic recombination occurs at sites bound by the protein PRDM9, whose DNA-binding zinc-finger domain can unexpectedly bind to gene promoters and to other copies of PRDM9.

    The Cas4-Cas1-Cas2 complex mediates precise prespacer processing during CRISPR adaptation

    Hayun Lee, Yukti Dhingra, Dipali G Sashital
    During CRISPR adaptation, Cas4 forms a ternary complex with the Cas1-Cas2 spacer integration complex, an interaction that coordinates substrate hand-off following precise, PAM-dependent prespacer processing prior to integration.

    Neural tube-associated boundary caps are a major source of mural cells in the skin

    Gaspard Gerschenfeld, Fanny Coulpier ... Piotr Topilko
    Neural tube-associated boundary caps are heterogeneous with a non-neural crest-derived subpopulation that may originate from the developing meninges, which gives rise to derivatives that migrate along nerves to detach and differentiate into skin mural cells.

    Machine learning-assisted elucidation of CD81–CD44 interactions in promoting cancer stemness and extracellular vesicle integrity

    Erika K Ramos, Chia-Feng Tsai ... Huiping Liu
    Machine learning-assisted experiments reveal CD81 as a novel binding partner of CD44 in driving cancer stemness, tumor cell clustering, and extracellular vesicle integrity in human and mouse breast cancer.

    Conservation of transcription factor binding specificities across 600 million years of bilateria evolution

    Kazuhiro R Nitta, Arttu Jolma ... Jussi Taipale
    Drosophila has almost all transcription factor binding specificities available to humans; and human transcription factors with divergent specificities operate in cell types that are not found in fruit flies.

    High-risk Escherichia coli clones that cause neonatal meningitis and association with recrudescent infection

    Nguyen Thi Khanh Nhu, Minh-Duy Phan ... Mark A Schembri
    E. coli that cause neonatal meningitis largely derive from two global clonal lineages that can additionally form intestinal reservoirs to seed recrudescent invasive infection even when appropriate antibiotics are used.

    Ral GTPases promote breast cancer metastasis by controlling biogenesis and organ targeting of exosomes

    Shima Ghoroghi, Benjamin Mary ... Vincent Hyenne
    A combination of animal models reveal how the molecular mechanisms of exosome secretion (RalA/B-dependent) are linked to their cargo content and their function in breast cancer pre-metastatic niche formation.
