Gene duplication of SNAPC1 generates transcription factors for snRNAs and sex-specific piRNAs

Lars Kristian Benner, Margaret R. Starostik, Rebecca J. Tay…·John K. Kim

The paper identifies SNPC-1.2 as a female-specific piRNA transcription factor in C. elegans, revealing how gene duplication and functional specialization generate sex-specific piRNA expression.

A stem cell knockout village reveals lineage rewiring and a non-canonical islet cell fate in monogenic diabetes

Dingyu Liu, Bicna Song, Zhaoheng Li…·Danwei Huangfu

This study uses a knockout village framework to analyze how mutations in diabetes genes alter pancreatic beta cell development, revealing non-canonical cell fate shifts and identifying ISL1 as a key regulator.
