Serine/Threonine phosphatase PP1 is a regulator of Notch signalling.

Jiban Barman, Asif Bakshi, Rashmi Sipani, Rohit Joshi

This study identifies PP1 and PNUTS as regulators of Notch signaling in Drosophila neurogenesis by dephosphorylating Su(H) to activate downstream targets.

Single-locus chromatin memory enables flexible spatial fate specification in the Drosophila visual system

Yen‐Chung Chen, Sophia Nielsen, Ben Jiwon Choi, Asif Bakshi, Rose Coyne, Mehmet Neset Özel, Claude Desplan

The paper shows that single-locus chromatin memory in Drosophila medulla progenitors allows spatial identity to be faithfully executed or flexibly bypassed during neuronal fate specification.

Orc4 spatiotemporally stabilizes centromeric chromatin

Lakshmi Sreekumar, Kiran Kumari, Krishnendu Guin, Asif Bakshi, Neha Varshney, Bhagya C. Thimmappa, Leelavati Narlikar, Ranjith Padinhateeri, Rahul Siddharthan, Kaustuv Sanyal

This study shows Orc4 stabilizes centromeric chromatin by interacting with CENPA and Mcm2, and its spatiotemporal localization is crucial for kinetochore stability in C. albicans.
