    Control of endothelial cell polarity and sprouting angiogenesis by non-centrosomal microtubules

    Maud Martin, Alexandra Veloso ... Anna Akhmanova
    Non-centrosomal microtubules are required for endothelial polarization and sprouting, while centrosomally anchored microtubule arrays are both dispensable and insufficient for these processes.

    RNA-binding deficient TDP-43 drives cognitive decline in a mouse model of TDP-43 proteinopathy

    Julie C Necarsulmer, Jeremy M Simon ... Todd J Cohen
    Impairing TDP-43 RNA-binding capacity through a single acetylation-mimic mutation alters TDP-43 function and recapitulates biochemical, molecular, and behavioral features of sporadic TDP-43 proteinopathies, thus providing opportunities for new research into pathogenic mechanisms and therapeutic interventions.

    The cooperative binding of TDP-43 to GU-rich RNA repeats antagonizes TDP-43 aggregation

    Juan Carlos Rengifo-Gonzalez, Krystel El Hage ... Ahmed Bouhss
    The RNA-mediated higher order assembly of TDP-43, a protein associated with neurodegenerative diseases, preserves its solubility by reducing the risk of multivalent interactions between low complexity domains.

    Tandem hnRNP A1 RNA recognition motifs act in concert to repress the splicing of survival motor neuron exon 7

    Irene Beusch, Pierre Barraud ... Frédéric Hai-Trieu Allain
    The structural model of hnRNP A1 shows that it can bind with both RRMs to RNA, which is shown to be relevant for the SMN2 exon 7 splicing mechanism in vivo.

    SARS-CoV-2 S protein:ACE2 interaction reveals novel allosteric targets

    Palur V Raghuvamsi, Nikhil K Tulsian ... Ganesh S Anand
    SARS-CoV-2 spike protein binding to receptor angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 allosterically enhances furin proteolysis at distal S1/S2 cleavage sites.

    Small RNAs from mitochondrial genome recombination sites are incorporated into T. gondii mitoribosomes

    Sabrina Tetzlaff, Arne Hillebrand ... Christian Schmitz-Linneweber
    Sequences at mitochondrial genome recombination sites are dually used as mRNAs and as rRNAs in actively translating mitoribosomes of T. gondii.

    Quantifying β-catenin subcellular dynamics and cyclin D1 mRNA transcription during Wnt signaling in single living cells

    Pinhas Kafri, Sarah E Hasenson ... Yaron Shav-Tal
    Imaging of single cells within a cell population shows the correlation between subcellular accumulation of β-catenin and the transcriptional activation of a target gene.

    The RNA helicase UPF1 associates with mRNAs co-transcriptionally and is required for the release of mRNAs from gene loci

    Anand K Singh, Subhendu Roy Choudhury ... Saverio Brogna
    UPF1 associates with nascent transcripts and plays a broad role in nuclear processes of gene expression.

    Micronuclei-based model system reveals functional consequences of chromothripsis in human cells

    Maja Kneissig, Kristina Keuper ... Zuzana Storchova
    A method to generate human cells with massive chromosomal aberrations on a specific chromosome allows analysis of their consequences.

    Nup98-dependent transcriptional memory is established independently of transcription

    Pau Pascual-Garcia, Shawn C Little, Maya Capelson
    Transcription and epigenetic memory of transcription are two co-occurring independent pathways, governed by different rate constants and unique parameters.
