    Gle1 is required for tRNA to stimulate Dbp5 ATPase activity in vitro and promote Dbp5-mediated tRNA export in vivo in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

    Arvind Arul Nambi Rajan, Ryuta Asada, Ben Montpetit
    In vivo and in vitro characterization demonstrates a direct interaction of Dbp5 with tRNA that requires Gle1 to spatially activate the Dbp5 ATPase cycle for tRNA export in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

    Adenine methylation is very scarce in the Drosophila genome and not erased by the ten-eleven translocation dioxygenase

    Manon Boulet, Guerric Gilbert ... Lucas Waltzer
    Biochemical, molecular, and genetic analyses show that in Drosophila the epigenetic enzyme TET does not demethylate 6mA, which is scarce in the genome, but rather acts in a catalytic-independent manner.

    Avoiding false discoveries in single-cell RNA-seq by revisiting the first Alzheimer’s disease dataset

    Alan E Murphy, Nurun Fancy, Nathan Skene
    Reanalysis reveals the impact of quality control and differential analysis methods on the discovery of disease-associated genes on the first Alzheimer's disease single-nucleus RNA-seq dataset.

    Chromosome-specific maturation of the epigenome in the Drosophila male germline

    James T Anderson, Steven Henikoff, Kami Ahmad
    Chromatin profiling of Drosophila testes reveals activation of the transcriptional program of the germline, widespread changes in RNA polymerase progression, and the absence of chromosomal regulation across the X chromosome.

    PI(3,4,5)P3 allosteric regulation of repressor activator protein 1 controls antigenic variation in trypanosomes

    Abdoulie O Touray, Rishi Rajesh ... Igor Cestari
    Nuclear phosphoinositide signaling controls telomeric gene repression and activation essential for switching expression of surface antigen genes and thus antigenic variation.

    SUMOylation of Bonus, the Drosophila homolog of Transcription Intermediary Factor 1, safeguards germline identity by recruiting repressive chromatin complexes to silence tissue-specific genes

    Baira Godneeva, Maria Ninova ... Alexei Aravin
    Bonus, the Drosophila TIF1 factor, functions as a repressor of tissue-specific genes in the germline, emphasizing an important function of SUMOylation in transcriptional regulation.

    Condensin positioning at telomeres by shelterin proteins drives sister-telomere disjunction in anaphase

    Léonard Colin, Celine Reyes ... Sylvie Tournier
    Telomeric proteins Taz1 or Mit1 specifically regulate telomere association of condensin which is essential for sister-telomere disjunction in mitosis by restraining telomere association of cohesin.
