The paper identifies two novel proteins, EGC-2 and EGC-3, that are essential for E granule assembly and small RNA homeostasis in C. elegans using TurboID-based proximity labeling and RNAi screening.

The paper identifies subcompartments within C. elegans germ granules and maps perinuclear proteins to specific regions, revealing a novel D granule and the role of MIP-1/EDDG-1 in germ granule architecture.

The paper identifies a new subnuclear organelle called the nucleolar stress body (NoSB) in C. elegans, formed through the NOSR-1/NUMR-1 axis in response to nucleolar stress.

The paper identifies peri-centrosomal localization of siRNAs in C. elegans using NRDE-3 as a reporter, showing dependence on 22G siRNAs and centrosomal components.

The paper develops a classifier, PTerm, using whole-genome promoter profiling of plasma cell-free DNA to predict preterm birth with high accuracy across multiple validation cohorts.
