Analysis of mouse zygotic genome activation (ZGA) reveals that a mis-annotated multicopy homeobox gene Obox4 functions redundantly with Dux to promote ZGA.

The newly characterized activity regulating neuropeptide encoding gene Spar is a transcriptional target of the Jeb/Alk receptor tyrosine kinase signaling pathway in the Drosophila nervous system.
Genetic and molecular analysis shows that Deltex modulates the Wingless gradient and counters Wingless signaling by promoting Armadillo/β-catenin degradation through a conserved regulatory mechanism.
Epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a continuous process, in which the transition or intermediate states can be molecularly and spatially defined, shedding new light on development and disease EMT.
It is shown that the absence of the centrosome protein ninein provokes premature ossification during mouse development, due to a defect in the fusion of precursor cells into syncytial osteoclasts.

A novel behavioural pipeline enables the quantitative analysis of the onset of movement in Drosophila embryos revealing that a microRNA modulates this process through regulatory effects in the sensory system.
