This paper identifies DICAR-JP as a functional domain that interacts with NAC to regulate OGDHL nascent peptide expression and mitochondrial translocation, proposing a new theory of ribosome migration in diabetic cardiomyopathy.

This study shows that GPCR signaling in C. elegans promotes stress-induced organismic death through a genetic program involving ZIP-10 and lipid remodeling.

The paper characterizes the genetic architecture of eight laboratory strains of the opossum using ddRAD-seq and whole-genome resequencing, identifying SNPs and confirming inbred strains.

The paper shows that ribosomes guide piRNA production from mRNAs in 3UTRs after translating upstream long ORFs, revealing a conserved mechanism for piRNA biogenesis.
