    A novel mechanism of bulk cytoplasmic transport by cortical dynein in Drosophila ovary

    Wen Lu, Margot Lakonishok ... Vladimir I Gelfand
    Cortical dynein performs bulk cytoplasmic transport by gliding microtubules along the cell cortex and through the ring canals to the oocyte.

    Chromatin topology defines estradiol-primed progesterone receptor and PAX2 binding in endometrial cancer cells

    Alejandro La Greca, Nicolás Bellora ... Patricia Saragüeta
    Binding of progesterone receptor and transcription factor PAX2 to pre-assembled permissive chromatin compartments regulates endometrial cancer gene expression under estrogenic conditions.

    A cellular and molecular atlas reveals the basis of chytrid development

    Davis Laundon, Nathan Chrismas ... Michael Cunliffe
    Three-dimensional cell modelling, lipid analysis, transcriptomics, and live-cell imaging reveal biological insights in to the key stages of the chytrid fungus life cycle.

    Regulation of canonical Wnt signalling by the ciliopathy protein MKS1 and the E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme UBE2E1

    Katarzyna Szymanska, Karsten Boldt ... Colin A Johnson
    Interacting MKS1 and UBE2E1 regulate canonical Wnt signaling through modulation of beta-catenin levels at the base of primary cilium, providing new insights into ciliopathy disease mechanisms.

    Pathway-specific effects of ADSL deficiency on neurodevelopment

    Ilaria Dutto, Julian Gerhards ... Travis H Stracker
    Analysis of adenylosuccinate lyase (ADSL) deficiency in multiple experimental systems reveals cell and organismal phenotypes and impaired neurodevelopment due to the attenuation of ADSL's roles in distinct pathways.

    Zinc finger protein Zfp335 controls early T-cell development and survival through β-selection-dependent and -independent mechanisms

    Xin Wang, Anjun Jiao ... Baojun Zhang
    Genetically modified mouse model and comprehensive analysis reveal the molecular mechanisms regulating early T-cell development through intracellular TCRβ expression-mediated β-selection and independent cell survival signaling.

    Nanoscale binding site localization by molecular distance estimation on native cell surfaces using topological image averaging

    Vibha Kumra Ahnlide, Johannes Kumra Ahnlide ... Pontus Nordenfelt
    A method to carefully measure the molecular distance between a site of interest and a reference surface by the repeated acquisition of the two image channels followed by the statistical calculation of the relative difference.

    Targeting DNA topoisomerases or checkpoint kinases results in an overload of chaperone systems, triggering aggregation of a metastable subproteome

    Wouter Huiting, Suzanne L Dekker ... Steven Bergink
    Various genotoxic stresses trigger widespread aggregation of abundant, liquid-liquid phase separation-prone proteins, suggesting that genotoxic stress is a potential driver of disease-associated protein aggregation.

    In vivo fluorescence lifetime imaging of macrophage intracellular metabolism during wound responses in zebrafish

    Veronika Miskolci, Kelsey E Tweed ... Anna Huttenlocher
    Lifetime imaging of endogenous metabolic coenzymes is sensitive to dynamic changes in macrophage activation in a live animal, providing a label-free imaging approach to study immunometabolism in vivo with single-cell, spatial, and temporal resolution.

    Spatial transcriptomic and single-nucleus analysis reveals heterogeneity in a gigantic single-celled syncytium

    Tobias Gerber, Cristina Loureiro ... J Gray Camp
    Nuclei of the true slime mold Physarum polycephalum are continuously shuttled within the cytoplasmic flow across the gigantic syncytium, yet Physarum can establish and maintain gene expression heterogeneity between different structures of the organism.
