Origin recognition complex-associated (ORCA) is crucial for the stability of the Histone H3 lysine 9 methyltransferase megacomplex, which is essential for heterochromatin organization.

Prion-like transfer of mutant huntingtin aggregates from presynaptic to postsynaptic neurons is enhanced by neuronal silencing and requires passage through the cytoplasm of Draper-expressing phagocytic glia in adult Drosophila brains.

Functional dissection of a cluster of male-specific neurons in Drosophila reveals a neuronal circuit regulating male courtship in accordance with the internal drive state.

The USP-50/USP8 protease removes the Rab5 GEF Rabex5 from endosomes while facilitating recruitment of the Rab7 GEF SAND-1/Mon1, promoting endosome maturation.

Organoids are useful in studying guidance cues for retinal ganglion cell (RGC) axon generation and regeneration, and the method of RGC isolation via CNTN2 facilitates investigating RGC-related retinal diseases such as glaucoma.

Activity-induced dendritic calcium influx in oxytocinergic magnocellular neurons can be robustly modulated by a highly diverse set of stimuli acting on distinct types of ion channels expressed along the dendritic membrane.

CHMP7 is phosphorylated by CDK1 upon mitotic entry, preventing interaction with LEM2 and inappropriate assembly during mitotic exit.

Shifts in pH that result from metabolic interactions between members of the Drosophila gut microbiota were sufficient to modulate Lactobacillus plantarum tolerance to the antibiotics rifampin and erythromycin.

SARS-CoV-2 infection in hamsters causes cardiovascular pathologies.

Meiosis-specific cohesin complexes differing in their kleisin subunit display different chromosome binding dynamics and perform specialised functions in sister chromatid cohesion, chromosome axis organisation, and double-strand break repair.
