Pumilio and Brain tumor regulate the expression of Smaug during the Drosophila maternal-to-zygotic transition

Alexander J Marsolais, Mariana Kekis, Harrison W. Smith…·Craig A. Smibert

This study shows that Pumilio and Brain tumor regulate Smaug mRNA degradation during the Drosophila maternal-to-zygotic transition, preventing ectopic Smaug protein expression and ensuring proper mRNA clearance.

Irx3/5 define the cochlear sensory domain and regulate vestibular and cochlear sensory patterning in the mammalian inner ear

Yuchen Liu, Tianli Qin, Xin Weng…·Mai Har Sham

This study shows that Irx3/5 genes are critical for patterning vestibular and cochlear sensory domains in the mammalian inner ear, with their deletion causing structural and cellular abnormalities in the cochlea.
