The paper presents a near-complete genome assembly of the African turquoise killifish and evaluates how TR detection programs and TE workflows affect TE expression profiling.

This study shows cohesin maintains condensed euchromatic domains in human cells by preventing local mixing, which is crucial for transcriptional insulation.

The paper presents whole genome sequences of two elasmobranchs, analyzing genome size dynamics and genomic architecture, revealing correlations between chromosome size, repetitive elements, and gene duplication patterns.

The paper identifies ENS-1/ERNI and its LTR Soprano as factors influencing chicken primordial germ cell development and in vitro establishment efficiency.

This study shows that reducing gut ceramidase Asah2 activity slows ageing in vertebrates by altering ceramide levels and microbiota composition.

The paper optimizes ATAC-seq for low-input and cryopreserved chicken primordial germ cells, identifying PGC-specific chromatin regions and their functional roles.

The paper shows that the shh limb enhancer MFCS1 is active in patterned limb regeneration in tadpoles but not in hypomorphic regeneration in froglets, suggesting epigenetic regulation is key.

The paper identifies segment-specific chromatin states at homeoprotein loci in axolotl limb segments, showing how positional information is encoded for regeneration.
