    Ovaries absent links dLsd1 to HP1a for local H3K4 demethylation required for heterochromatic gene silencing

    Fu Yang, Zhenghui Quan ... Rongwen Xi
    A Drosophila fertility gene is identified that acts as a linker between HP1a and local H3K4 demethylation during HP1a-mediated gene silencing that is required for ovary development and transposon silencing..

    Integrating multi-omics data reveals function and therapeutic potential of deubiquitinating enzymes

    Laura M Doherty, Caitlin E Mills ... Peter K Sorger
    The integration of experimental and data mining approaches provides novel insights into deubiquitinating enzymes individually and as a gene family.

    The dyskerin ribonucleoprotein complex as an OCT4/SOX2 coactivator in embryonic stem cells

    Yick W Fong, Jaclyn J Ho ... Robert Tjian
    A previously unrecognized transcriptional coactivator function of the dyskerin ribonucleoprotein complex and its associated small nucleolar RNA has been uncovered and mediates embryonic stem cell-specific transcription.

    Kinase-dead ATM protein is highly oncogenic and can be preferentially targeted by Topo-isomerase I inhibitors

    Kenta Yamamoto, Jiguang Wang ... Shan Zha
    Orphan ATM kinase-domain missense mutations are unexpectedly common and form a potent oncogenic event and a biomarker for Topo-isomerase I inhibitor based therapy.

    The enteric pathogen Cryptosporidium parvum exports proteins into the cytosol of the infected host cell

    Jennifer E Dumaine, Adam Sateriale ... Boris Striepen
    Following initial invasion events, intracellular life stages of C. parvum rely upon an N-terminal host-targeting motif and proteolytic processing at a specific leucine residue to deliver proteins into the infected enterocyte.

    Phenotypic analysis of the unstimulated in vivo HIV CD4 T cell reservoir

    Jason Neidleman, Xiaoyu Luo ... Nadia R Roan
    An in-depth view of the in vivo blood and tissue HIV reservoir is presented highlighting shared phenotypic features between individuals, thus enabling marked ex vivo enrichment of replication-competent latent cells.

    NOVA-dependent regulation of cryptic NMD exons controls synaptic protein levels after seizure

    Taesun Eom, Chaolin Zhang ... Robert B Darnell
    The HITS-CLIP sequencing method is used to demonstrate that cryptic exons can detect messenger RNA that contains nonsense mutations, and then cause this RNA to decay, which shows that these exons are involved in maintaining the electrical balance of neurons and, possibly, preventing epilepsy.

    The interplay of RNA:DNA hybrid structure and G-quadruplexes determines the outcome of R-loop-replisome collisions

    Charanya Kumar, Sahil Batra ... Dirk Remus
    Reconstitution of orientation-specific R-loop-replisome collisions with purified proteins reveals the differential impact of R-loop-associated RNA:DNA hybrids and G-quadruplexes on replication fork progression.

    Separating phases of allopolyploid evolution with resynthesized and natural Capsella bursa-pastoris

    Tianlin Duan, Adrien Sicard ... Martin Lascoux
    A comparison between artificially created allopolyploids and natural ones reveals that the latter underwent significant evolutionary steps after their formation.
