    Spectral decomposition unlocks ascidian morphogenesis

    Joel Dokmegang, Emmanuel Faure ... Madhav Mani
    The blueprint and narrative of shape formation during early development can be objectively observed by quantifying and analyzing whole-embryo dynamics.

    BCAS2 promotes primitive hematopoiesis by sequestering β-catenin within the nucleus

    Guozhu Ning, Yu Lin ... Qiang Wang
    BCAS2 directly binds to the Armadillo repeats 9–12 of β-catenin via the coiled-coil domains, sequestering β-catenin within the nucleus and thereby promoting Wnt signaling during primitive hematopoiesis.

    Activity-dependent synapse elimination requires caspase-3 activation

    Zhou Yu, Andrian Gutu ... Erin K O'Shea
    Caspase-3 activation links synapse weakening to synapse elimination.

    A library of lineage-specific driver lines connects developing neuronal circuits to behavior in the Drosophila ventral nerve cord

    Jelly HM Soffers, Erin Beck ... Haluk Lacin
    A temporally stable and cell-type-specific genetic driver library provides the means to access and manipulate neuronal lineages in the fly nervous system during development and adulthood.

    Fat body-derived cytokine Upd2 controls disciplined migration of tracheal stem cells in Drosophila

    Pengzhen Dong, Yue Li ... Hai Huang
    Long-range communication between neighboring organs orchestrates the disciplined migration of stem cells.

    Oviductin sets the species-specificity of the mammalian zona pellucida

    Daniel de la Fuente, Maria Maroto ... Alfonso Gutierrez-Adan
    The oocyte zona pellucida needs to interact with an oviduct protein called OVGP1 to ensure that only sperm from the same species can fertilize the egg.

    Mutations that prevent phosphorylation of the BMP4 prodomain impair proteolytic maturation of homodimers leading to lethality in mice

    Hyung-Seok Kim, Mary L Sanchez ... Jan L Christian
    Phosphorylation of the BMP4 prodomain is required for proteolytic activation of BMP4 homodimers, but not BMP4/7 heterodimers.
