    Chromatin-prebound Crm1 recruits Nup98-HoxA9 fusion to induce aberrant expression of Hox cluster genes

    Masahiro Oka, Sonoko Mura ... Yoshihiro Yoneda
    Nup98-HoxA9 is recruited to Hox gene cluster regions together with the chromosomally pre-bound nuclear export factor Crm1, which induces aberrant expression of several Hox genes and affecting the differentiation of embryonic stem cells.

    Histone H3G34R mutation causes replication stress, homologous recombination defects and genomic instability in S. pombe

    Rajesh K Yadav, Carolyn M Jablonowski ... Janet F Partridge
    Mutation of Glycine 34 to Arginine within the N-terminal tail of histone H3 alters post-translational modifications on Lysine 36 and is associated with a delay in replication restart, defective homologous recombination and an increase in genomic instability.

    NuRD subunit CHD4 regulates super-enhancer accessibility in rhabdomyosarcoma and represents a general tumor dependency

    Joana G Marques, Berkley E Gryder ... Beat W Schäfer
    In fusion-positive rhabdomyosarcoma, CHD4 positively regulates super-enhancer-mediated gene expression by allowing a chromatin architecture at these cis-regulatory regions, which is permissive to the binding of the transcription factor PAX3-FOXO1.

    Allele-specific gene-editing approach for vision loss restoration in RHO-associated retinitis pigmentosa

    Xiaozhen Liu, Jing Qiao ... Liping Yang
    The allele-specific gene-editing drug is expected to make RHO-T17M-associated retinitis pigmentosa therapy a reality.

    The transcription factor Hey and nuclear lamins specify and maintain cell identity

    Naama Flint Brodsly, Eliya Bitman-Lotan ... Amir Orian
    Hey together with LaminC continuously supervise nuclear organisation and differentiated enterocyte identity, a regulation that is lost upon ageing, resulting in loss of gut homeostasis.

    A re-inducible gap gene cascade patterns the anterior–posterior axis of insects in a threshold-free fashion

    Alena Boos, Jutta Distler ... Ezzat El-Sherif
    The body axis of insects is divided into different fates using a self-regulatory and threshold-free mechanism.

    Disruption of PIKFYVE causes congenital cataract in human and zebrafish

    Shaoyi Mei, Yi Wu ... Jun Zhao
    Deleterious genetic variants in the PIP kinase domain of PIKFYVE are directly associated with the occurrence of congenital cataract in human and zebrafish.

    Rapid genome editing by CRISPR-Cas9-POLD3 fusion

    Ganna Reint, Zhuokun Li ... Emma Haapaniemi
    Novel Cas9 fusion with DNA polymerase delta subunit 3 (POLD3), identified via high-throughput screening of more than 450 DNA repair proteins, enhances editing by speeding up the initiation of DNA repair.
