    Major nuclear locales define nuclear genome organization and function beyond A and B compartments

    Omid Gholamalamdari, Tom van Schaik ... Andrew S Belmont
    New insights into nuclear genome organization were generated by comparing genome localization relative to three major nuclear locales- nuclear lamina, nuclear speckles, and nucleoli- across several human cell lines.

    SFSWAP is a negative regulator of OGT intron detention and global pre-mRNA splicing

    Ashwin Govindan, Nicholas K Conrad
    SFSWAP was identified in a genetic screen to negatively regulate splicing of OGT and other mRNAs primarily by regulating intron retention and exon skipping.

    Treacle’s ability to form liquid-like phase condensates is essential for nucleolar fibrillar center assembly, efficient rRNA transcription and processing, and rRNA gene repair

    Artem K Velichko, Nadezhda V Petrova ... Omar L Kantidze
    Treacle condensation, driven by alternating charge blocks, facilitates interactions with transcription factors to spatially segregate ribosomal RNA synthesis and processing, while also recruiting TOPBP1 for activation of the rDNA damage response.

    The domesticated transposon protein L1TD1 associates with its ancestor L1 ORF1p to promote LINE-1 retrotransposition

    Gülnihal Kavaklioglu, Alexandra Podhornik ... Christian Seiser
    DNA hypomethylation in human tumor cells results in the activation of the LINE-1-derived RNA-binding protein L1TD1 and its interactions with LINE-1 transposons.

    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.
