This paper identifies CD73 as a regulator that limits oncogenic activity of mutant β-catenin in endometrial carcinomas, showing that its loss increases transcriptional activity and tumor progression.

This study identifies RNF25's role in protecting DNA replication forks from degradation, independent of its ubiquitin signaling functions.

The paper introduces a spliceosomal intron from a lichen fungus into yeast to study its effects on growth and desiccation tolerance, finding slower growth and increased desiccation tolerance in intron-bearing mutants.

The paper describes a CRISPR-Cas9 method to introduce targeted mutations in all 150 rDNA repeats in yeast without altering the nucleolus.
