One Drosophila Ref(2)P polypeptide takes different structures in midgut and muscle, driving autophagy or mitochondria-associated degradation; deleting disordered region IDR2 switches muscle Ref(2)P to midgut state.

This study shows TDP-43 amyloid forms only when its C-terminal domain arrests in soluble clusters, and this process can be inhibited by co-expressing an oligomeric binder.

This study identifies molecular differences in meiosis between eupyrene and apyrene sperm production in silkworms, showing that Sxl facilitates error-prone meiosis for apyrene sperm.

The paper creates a hypomorphic allele of the Drosophila melanogaster corolla gene by replacing it with its D. mauritiana ortholog, revealing defects in SC maintenance and crossover distribution while avoiding severe phenotypes.

This paper establishes bat muscle cell lines and analyzes their transcriptomic and metabolic profiles to study muscle regeneration and flight muscle biology in bats.

Replacing the c(3)G gene in Drosophila melanogaster with that of Drosophila mauritiana alters crossover patterns, reducing the centromere effect and increasing centromere-proximal crossovers.

This paper develops CRISPR-Lock, a CRISPR/dCas13 RNA blocker that disrupts miRNA-target interactions and rescues DM1 pathology by correcting splicing biomarkers and reducing nuclear foci.

This study identifies two distinct multicellular niches in fetal liver and adult bone marrow that support hematopoietic stem cells with different cycling states and lineage biases.

The paper identifies and characterizes intermediate states during neural crest cell epithelial to mesenchymal transition and delamination using single-cell RNA sequencing.

The paper investigates how gene dosage affects centrosome scaling and diploidization in budding yeast, linking ploidy changes to structural incompatibilities and evolutionary adaptations.

This study shows that X chromosomes and autosomes have different sensitivity to SC disruption in meiosis, indicating distinct regulatory mechanisms.
