This study investigates the evolutionary origin of sugar sensing in vertebrates, finding that it predates angiosperms and involves multiple independent T1R-based mechanisms.
Mai Moritoh, Chikara Takeuchi, Yurika Namba…·Mikiko C. Siomi
The paper shows how the transposon Springer rewires gene expression and how Flamenco piRNA clusters remodel to allow transposon spread to the germline.
Ayumi Nagashima, Kazutaka Ushio, Hidenori Nishihara…·Tadaomi Furuta
This study identifies the molecular mechanism behind the reduced solute permeability in Aqp10.2 by analyzing ancestral sequences, structural models, and site-directed mutagenesis.
Yuta Uneme, Ryu Maeda, Gen Nakayama…·Soichiro Yamanaka
The paper shows Morc1 re-silences activated transposons in gonocytes by establishing heterochromatin, preventing their disruptive effects on the transcriptome.

The paper identifies E-box and AP-1 motifs as cooperative regulators of regeneration-response enhancers in zebrafish and Xenopus.

The paper identifies evolutionary changes in NRK that enable regulation of the CK2-PTEN-AKT pathway and placental cell proliferation in placental mammals.
