The paper investigates templated insertions at DNA breaks in yeast, showing they are short, inverted duplications formed via a hybrid mechanism involving RPA and Rad27, and are exacerbated in certain mutants.

The paper investigates the role of yeast EndoG (Nuc1) in preventing genome instability by degrading cytoplasmic DNA and regulating its transfer to the nucleus.

The paper introduces MACMIC, a method to identify feature pairs with maximal colocalization and minimal correlation, revealing CTCF's dual role in regulating cell identity genes through epigenetic mechanisms.

This study shows genome-wide CpG methylation inheritance in corals and links methylation variation to environmental factors like temperature and salinity.
