    Genome organization by SATB1 binding to base-unpairing regions (BURs) provides a scaffold for SATB1-regulated gene expression

    Yoshinori Kohwi, Xianrong Wong ... Terumi Kohwi-Shigematsu
    Modified ChIP-seq and 4C-seq approaches, using urea-purified crosslinked chromatin, uncovered a two-tiered chromatin organization mediated by SATB1 that is linked to gene expression.

    Nuclear and cytosolic J-domain proteins provide synergistic control of Hsf1 at distinct phases of the heat shock response

    Carmen Ruger-Herreros, Lucia Svoboda ... Bernd Bukau
    The nuclear J-domain protein Apj1 controls the shut-off phase of the yeast heat shock response by displacing DNA-bound heat shock transcription factor Hsf1.

    Telomeres control human telomerase (TERT) expression through non-telomeric TRF2

    Antara Sengupta, Soujanya Vinayagamurthy ... Shantanu Chowdhury
    Telomere length controls hTERT expression by modulating TRF2 distribution and PRC2-mediated repression, highlighting a self-regulatory mechanism in cancer.

    Human cytomegalovirus infection coopts chromatin organization to diminish TEAD1 transcription factor activity

    Khund Sayeed, Sreeja Parameswaran ... Matthew T Weirauch
    Infection of human cells by human cytomegalovirus induces massive changes to human chromatin and reduction of TEAD1 activity.

    DNA methylation insulates genic regions from CTCF loops near nuclear speckles

    Shelby A Roseman, Allison P Siegenfeld ... Brian B Liau
    CTCF binding promotes chromatin-nuclear speckle interactions and gene activation after DNA demethylation, yet its binding and looping patterns are unaffected by speckle depletion.

    Cap-independent co-expression of dsRNA-sensing and NF-κB pathway inhibitors enables controllable self-amplifying RNA expression with reduced immunotoxicity

    Tony KY Lim, Anne Ritoux ... Ewan St John Smith
    Engineering self-amplifying RNA to intrinsically disarm the innate immune pathways it triggers enables durable, externally controlled gene expression with reduced cytotoxicity and cytokine release, eliminating the need for exogenous immunosuppressants.

    Enalapril mitigates senescence and aging-related phenotypes in human cells and mice via pSmad1/5/9-driven antioxidative genes

    Wencong Lyu, Haochen Wang ... Wei Tao
    Enalapril combats the effects of senescence by activating the pSmad1/5/9–antioxidative gene axis, enhancing antioxidative defenses and promoting cell proliferation, thereby supporting healthy aging.
