    Virus infection of the CNS disrupts the immune-neural-synaptic axis via induction of pleiotropic gene regulation of host responses

    Olga A Maximova, Daniel E Sturdevant ... Alexander G Pletnev
    Virus infection of the central nervous system disrupts the homeostasis of the immune-neural-synaptic axis via induction of pleiotropic genes with an unintended off-target negative impact on the neurotransmission.

    Pervasive epigenetic effects of Drosophila euchromatic transposable elements impact their evolution

    Yuh Chwen G Lee, Gary H Karpen
    The ability of transposable elements to epigenetically influence adjacent genes impacts genome evolution by driving substantial variation in transposon numbers between species.

    KRAB-zinc finger protein gene expansion in response to active retrotransposons in the murine lineage

    Gernot Wolf, Alberto de Iaco ... Todd S Macfarlan
    Unbiased ChIP-seq screens and genetic knockouts of large Kruppel associated box zinc finger protein (KRAB-ZFP) clusters reveal that evolutionarily young KRAB-ZFPs play a redundant role in retrotransposon restriction in mice.

    Distinct progenitor populations mediate regeneration in the zebrafish lateral line

    Eric D Thomas, David W Raible
    The zebrafish lateral line utilizes multiple, genetically distinct, independently regulated progenitors to generate new hair cells during homeostasis and regeneration, and to maintain progenitor pools.

    An optimized CRISPR/Cas9 approach for precise genome editing in neurons

    Huaqiang Fang, Alexei M Bygrave ... Richard L Huganir
    CRISPR/Cas9 based genomic editing for efficient endogenous protein tagging can be achieved by targeting non-coding sequences with two guides.

    Fitness effects of CRISPR endonucleases in Drosophila melanogaster populations

    Anna M Langmüller, Jackson Champer ... Philipp W Messer
    In Drosophila, genomic CRISPR/Cas9 expression necessary for CRISPR-based gene drives harbors fitness costs presumably caused by off-target effects, which can be minimized by using a high-fidelity version of Cas9.

    Evolution of herbivore-induced early defense signaling was shaped by genome-wide duplications in Nicotiana

    Wenwu Zhou, Thomas Brockmöller ... Shuqing Xu
    Comparative transcriptomic analysis reveals the molecular basis and evolution of herbivore-associated early defense signaling in Nicotiana.

    Genome editing enables reverse genetics of multicellular development in the choanoflagellate Salpingoeca rosetta

    David S Booth, Nicole King
    Genome editing in the choanoflagellate Salpingoeca rosetta opens newfound possibilities to functionally probe choanoflagellate genes that may illuminate the origin of their closest relatives, the animals.
