In the context of SARS-CoV-2 infection, Nsp14 alters gene expression of the host cell through the interaction with the cellular enzyme IMPDH2.

Age-dependent changes in DNA methylation are tightly coupled to the metabolic state, and is partly under genetic regulation, and longer lifespan is associated with lower epigenetic entropy at CpGs that increase in methylation with age.

Spermidine-mediated superoxide generation affects iron homeostasis in Escherichia coli.

In addition to a neural crest cell specific role, AP-2α and AP-2ß cooperatively promote craniofacial development through regulating chromatin and gene expression dynamics in the facial surface ectoderm.

The ACF chromatin-remodeling complex positions the +1 nucleosome in facultative heterochromatin to mediate transcriptional repression at Polycomb target genes.

The MCM-binding protein (MCMBP) promotes the hexamer assembly of the replicative MCM2–7 helicase by interacting with the nascent MCM3 subunit, playing a key role in achieving high expression levels of the functional MCM2–7 helicase for maintaining genome integrity.

Combining ribosome profiling and RNA sequencing illuminates novel features of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus gene expression, including the regulation of polyprotein stoichiometry through temporal modulation of ribosomal frameshifting and the synthesis of non-canonical transcripts.

The efficiency with which ribosomes shift reading frames when decoding viral RNA may change over the course of an infection.

New open-source method contains all the tools for extracting open chromatin or RNA from thousands of single cells in parallel for <5% of the cost of state-of-the-art commercial alternatives, paving the way for whole-tissue atlasing and new protocol development.

Dynamic interactions of core clock molecules are quantitively measured and mathematically modelled to reveal the hidden role of PER:CRY complexes in enhancing the mobility of CLOCK:BMAL1 to move to new DNA sites.
