The splicing factor SRSF6 helps regulate antiviral immunity and mitochondrial membrane integrity by balancing the abundance of two alternatively spliced isoforms of the apoptotic protein BAX.
The fact that sexual activity/reproduction doubles the lifespan of certain rodent species is most likely linked to critical changes in the regulation of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal stress axis.

High throughput sequencing of Arabidopsis mutants lacking the U6 snRNA methyltransferase FIONA1/METTL16 uncovers the role of U6 methylation in splicing signal preferences.
A mathematical model shows that mutations that recur even modestly among cancer patients are cancer driving nucleotides that can be exhaustively identified to serve as targets of cancer therapy.
The range of molecular forms adopted by L1 retrotransposons reflect a tapestry of lifecycle-permissive and -restrictive host-parasite interactions occurring within cells.
