    Pleiotropic effects of trisomy and pharmacologic modulation on structural, functional, molecular, and genetic systems in a Down syndrome mouse model

    Sergi Llambrich, Birger Tielemans ... Greetje Vande Velde
    Ts65dn mice exhibit structural, functional, molecular, and genetic alterations that are modulated but unrecovered by prenatal chronic GTE-EGCG, highlighting the importance of holistic studies to understand complex disorders and treatments.

    The glyoxylate shunt is essential for desiccation tolerance in C. elegans and budding yeast

    Cihan Erkut, Vamshidhar R Gade ... Teymuras V Kurzchalia
    Roundworms and yeast can survive extreme desiccation only by switching their metabolism into a gluconeogenic mode and producing very high amounts of trehalose via the glyoxylate shunt.

    Genetic effects on promoter usage are highly context-specific and contribute to complex traits

    Kaur Alasoo, Julia Rodrigues ... Daniel J Gaffney
    Re-analysis of large gene expression datasets with state-of-the-art quantification methods reveals additional candidate genes mediating complex trait associations.

    Integrative analysis of metabolite GWAS illuminates the molecular basis of pleiotropy and genetic correlation

    Courtney J Smith, Nasa Sinnott-Armstrong ... Jonathan K Pritchard
    Genetic variants acting between biologically related metabolite pairs often reflect biology local to the traits and have effect directions contrasting those of upstream or downstream variants, which can result in striking, biologically interpretable heterogeneity in genetic correlation across the genome.

    A genetic basis for molecular asymmetry at vertebrate electrical synapses

    Adam C Miller, Alex C Whitebirch ... Cecilia B Moens
    Electrical synapses are neuronal, gap-junction-based connections found throughout the nervous system that, in the escape circuit of zebrafish, are composed of molecularly distinct pre- and postsynaptic junction forming proteins that are required for behavioral performance.

    Crosstalk between the chloroplast protein import and SUMO systems revealed through genetic and molecular investigation in Arabidopsis

    Samuel James Watson, Na Li ... R Paul Jarvis
    The small ubiquitin-like modifier system directly regulates components of the chloroplast protein import apparatus, that is, TOC proteins, to control chloroplast biogenesis and plant development.

    Mismatch repair deficiency endows tumors with a unique mutation signature and sensitivity to DNA double-strand breaks

    Hui Zhao, Bernard Thienpont ... Diether Lambrechts
    A comprehensive catalogue of somatic mutations accumulating in MMR-deficient tumors highlights their relevance in the context of human genetic evolution, for the diagnosis of microsatellite instability and the provision of targeted treatment options.

    Niche-specific genome degradation and convergent evolution shaping Staphylococcus aureus adaptation during severe infections

    Stefano G Giulieri, Romain Guérillot ... Benjamin P Howden
    A large-scale analysis of Staphylococcus aureus within-host evolution based on a comprehensive catalogue of bacterial genetic variation reveals an excess of genome degradation signatures in infecting strains and new genetic loci of clinically relevant adaptation.
