    Affinity-tagged SMAD1 and SMAD5 mouse lines reveal transcriptional reprogramming mechanisms during early pregnancy

    Zian Liao, Suni Tang ... Martin Matzuk
    Mouse models reveal fundamental roles of SMAD1/5 in mediating both bone morphogenetic protein signaling pathways and the transcriptional response to progesterone during decidualization.

    Genetic associations between circulating immune cells and periodontitis highlight the prospect of systemic immunoregulation in periodontal care

    Xinjian Ye, Yijing Bai ... Qianming Chen
    Mendelian randomization and transcriptome-wide association studies delineate the causal relationships and genetic markers between circulating immune cells and periodontitis, pinpointing neutrophils as the predominant contributors.

    Comprehensive mutagenesis maps the effect of all single-codon mutations in the AAV2 rep gene on AAV production

    Nina K Jain, Pierce J Ogden, George M Church
    Measurement of the effect of all single-codon variants of the AAV2 rep gene on recombinant adeno-associated virus production identifies novel beneficial variants, which may facilitate improvement of gene therapy production.

    Gene expression plasticity followed by genetic change during colonization in a high-elevation environment

    Huishang She, Yan Hao ... Yanhua Qu
    An integrative approach allows investigations of the relationship between an initial plasticity and the subsequent adaptive evolution during rapid adaptive modification of complex systems in the wild.

    Random genetic drift sets an upper limit on mRNA splicing accuracy in metazoans

    Florian Bénitière, Anamaria Necsulea, Laurent Duret
    Variation in the rate of alternative splicing across animals are mainly driven by differences in the rate of splicing errors.

    Lack of CCDC146, a ubiquitous centriole and microtubule-associated protein, leads to non-syndromic male infertility in human and mouse

    Jana Muroňová, Zine Eddine Kherraf ... Christophe Arnoult
    CCDC146 is a structural component of the flagellum in sperm, located in the doublet microtubules of the axoneme, whose absence leads to multiple morphological anomalies of the flagellum.

    Characterization of caffeine response regulatory variants in vascular endothelial cells

    Carly Boye, Cynthia A Kalita ... Francesca Luca
    Caffeine modulates the genetic risk for cardiovascular disease through changes in target gene expression, likely due to regulation of transcription factor binding.
