    Leveraging the Mendelian disorders of the epigenetic machinery to systematically map functional epigenetic variation

    Teresa Romeo Luperchio, Leandros Boukas ... Hans T Bjornsson
    Chromatin/transcriptome profiling in multiple mouse models with mutations in epigenetic machinery (EM) reveals shared abnormalities including many IgA-relevant genes, indicating that this kind of joint analysis may elucidate the multigenic nature of EM disorders.

    No current evidence for widespread dosage compensation in S. cerevisiae

    Eduardo M Torres, Michael Springer, Angelika Amon
    Dosage compensation does not take place in wild yeast strains.

    Heat shock factor 1 (HSF1) cooperates with estrogen receptor α (ERα) in the regulation of estrogen action in breast cancer cells

    Natalia Vydra, Patryk Janus ... Wieslawa Widlak
    Heat shock factor 1 is involved in estrogen-induced chromatin remodeling in estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer cells.

    Integration of human pancreatic islet genomic data refines regulatory mechanisms at Type 2 Diabetes susceptibility loci

    Matthias Thurner, Martijn van de Bunt ... Mark I McCarthy
    Human pancreatic islet high-resolution chromatin state maps generated from DNA methylation, open chromatin and ChIP-seq mark data facilitate the characterisation of regulatory mechanisms at type 2 diabetes genome-wide association study loci.

    Evolutionary transitions between beneficial and phytopathogenic Rhodococcus challenge disease management

    Elizabeth A Savory, Skylar L Fuller ... Jeff H Chang
    The horizontal acquisition of virulence plasmids is potentiated by production practices in plant nurseries and is sufficient to transition Rhodococcus from being beneficial to being pathogenic.

    Genetic interactions affecting human gene expression identified by variance association mapping

    Andrew Anand Brown, Alfonso Buil ... Richard Durbin
    Multiple replicated examples of epistasis affecting gene expression in humans are identified, some explaining a substantial proportion of the variation in expression.

    Modeling the ACVR1R206H mutation in human skeletal muscle stem cells

    Emilie Barruet, Steven M Garcia ... Edward C Hsiao
    Novel human iPS cell derived and primary skeletal muscle stem cells show that abnormal ACVR1 activation increases osteogenic/ECM gene expression and impairs myofiber repair, while revealing muscle-specific regenerative properties.

    Bipartite binding and partial inhibition links DEPTOR and mTOR in a mutually antagonistic embrace

    Maren Heimhalt, Alex Berndt ... Roger L Williams
    The inhibitory protein DEPTOR make two widely separated interactions with mTOR that are both necessary for its unique partial mTOR inhibition, and DEPTOR is a more potent inhibitor of mutation- or RHEB-activated mTORC1 than basal mTORC1.

    Thymocytes trigger self-antigen-controlling pathways in immature medullary thymic epithelial stages

    Noella Lopes, Nicolas Boucherit ... Magali Irla
    Self-reactive CD4+ thymocytes have a broad impact on the composition of medullary thymic epithelial cell (mTEC) subsets by acting upstream of Aire+ mTECs, which conditions the induction of T-cell tolerance.

    Structural insights into hormone recognition by the human glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide receptor

    Fenghui Zhao, Chao Zhang ... Ming-Wei Wang
    The structure provides key insights into hormone recognition and activation of the glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide receptor.
