Inference of Selective Force on House Mouse Genomes during Secondary Contact in East Asia

The paper analyzes 163 house mouse genomes to study selective forces during secondary contact in East Asia, finding genomic admixture and sex chromosome conflict.

Geomagnetic orientation in subterranean mole crickets during burrowing

This study shows mole crickets use the geomagnetic field to orient burrowing directions, aligning with north-south under normal fields and shifting to east-west when fields are rotated.

Identification of a novel enhancer essential for Satb1 expression in TH2 cells and activated ILC2s.

The paper identifies a cis-regulatory enhancer critical for Satb1 expression in TH2 cells and activated ILC2s, revealing its role in type 2 immune responses.

Development of a fluorescence reporter system to quantify transcriptional activity of endogenous p53 in living cells

This study develops a fluorescence reporter system to visualize endogenous p53 transcriptional activity in living cells, revealing cell-to-cell heterogeneity and cell cycle dependence of p53 activation.

A non-canonical unfolded protein response pathway and mitochondrial dynamics control the number of ER-mitochondria contact sites

This study identifies a novel role of mitochondrial dynamics in regulating ER-mitochondria contact sites in yeast, showing that ER stress affects ERMES cluster stability independently of the canonical UPR pathway.

Visualizing multiple inter-organelle contact sites using the organelle-targeted split-GFP system

The paper evaluates the split-GFP system for visualizing inter-organelle contact sites in yeast and mammalian cells, showing its utility and limitations.
