    Nuclear Argonaute protein NRDE-3 switches small RNA partners during embryogenesis to mediate temporal-specific gene regulatory activity

    Shihui Chen, Carolyn Marie Phillips
    RNA interference pathways are spatially and temporally organized during Caenorhabditis elegans embryogenesis, with the Argonaute protein NRDE-3 playing distinct roles in regulating genes in different cell types and developmental stages.

    The conserved ATPase PCH-2 controls the number and distribution of crossovers by antagonizing their formation in Caenorhabditis elegans

    Bhumil Patel, Maryke Grobler ... Needhi Bhalla
    By regulating the chromosome axis component and meiotic HORMAD, HIM-3, the conserved AAA-ATPase PCH-2 controls the number and distribution of meiotic recombination events.

    Identification of nonsense-mediated decay inhibitors that alter the tumor immune landscape

    Ashley L Cook, Surojit Sur ... Nicolas Wyhs
    Inhibition of nonsense-mediated decay turns immunologically cold tumors hot by increasing the amount of mutant RNA leading to an increase in T-cell-targetable neoantigens on the cell surface.

    Mediator kinase inhibition suppresses hyperactive interferon signaling in Down syndrome

    Kira A Cozzolino, Lynn Sanford ... Dylan J Taatjes
    The Mediator-associated kinases CDK8 and CDK19 help drive inflammatory responses to interferon, and it is discovered that kinase-dependent transcriptional responses manifest in part through splicing changes and lipid metabolites.
