    Maternally inherited piRNAs direct transient heterochromatin formation at active transposons during early Drosophila embryogenesis

    Martin H Fabry, Federica A Falconio ... Gregory J Hannon
    Maternally deposited Piwi-piRNA complexes co-transcriptionally repress transposable elements that transiently become active in somatic cells of the developing Drosophila embryo.

    Filamin, a synaptic organizer in Drosophila, determines glutamate receptor composition and membrane growth

    GaYoung Lee, Thomas L Schwarz
    Filamin, by recruiting a signaling complex to the postsynapse, orchestrates the correct formation and growth of postsynaptic membranes and localization of glutamate receptor subunits.

    Experimental evidence that uniformly white sclera enhances the visibility of eye-gaze direction in humans and chimpanzees

    Fumihiro Kano, Yuri Kawaguchi, Yeow Hanling
    Experiments showed that uniformly white sclera, one distinguishing feature of human eyes, facilitates gaze perception across species, suggesting that this eye feature evolved for conspecific communication in humans.

    Depletion of SMN protein in mesenchymal progenitors impairs the development of bone and neuromuscular junction in spinal muscular atrophy

    Sang-Hyeon Hann, Seon-Yong Kim ... Young-Yun Kong
    Fibro-adipogenic progenitors in skeletal muscle contribute to the neuromuscular pathogenesis of spinal muscular atrophy, and depletion of SMN in chondrocytes reduces local IGF sigaling in growth plate.

    Enteroendocrine cell types that drive food reward and aversion

    Ling Bai, Nilla Sivakumar ... Zachary A Knight
    A method for the genetic manipulation of enteroendocrine cells reveals how different intestinal cell types control food intake and drive post-ingestive learning.

    Coordination of cell cycle and morphogenesis during organ formation

    Jeffrey Matthew, Vishakha Vishwakarma ... SeYeon Chung
    The SP1/KLF transcription factor Huckebein controls endoreplication in the Drosophila salivary gland, ensuring proper morphogenesis during organ formation.
