RNA-binding proteins use both translational activation and repression of key molecular determinants to post-mitotically sculpt the identity and connectivity of developing mouse neocortex in an area-specific manner.

The first genomic view of beetle luciferase evolution indicates evolutionary independence of luciferase between fireflies and click-beetles, and provide valuable datasets which will accelerate the discovery of new biotechnological tools.

Members of a single gene family determine the genomic basis of multiple coexisting meiotic drive elements in natural populations of Podospora.

Systematically studying the expression, small RNA-binding partners, and loss-of-function phenotypes of all 19 Argonautes uncovers how small RNA regulatory pathways function and interact in Caenorhabditis elegans, a long-standing model for small RNA biology and RNAi.

A novel form of self-fertility evolved in Cryptococcus depauperatus, a close relative to the human pathogenic Cryptococcus species, in which sexual development is attained by self-signaling of a cognate pheromone and pheromone-receptor pair.

Genome-wide integration of transcriptome, accessible chromatin, and DNA methylome data from vascular endothelial cells lays the foundation for understanding the gene regulatory circuits that generate organ-specific vascular specialization.
