Mammalian condensin I controls higher-order chromosome organization and homologous recombination in meiotic prophase I

This study shows that condensin I regulates meiotic chromosome structure and recombination by controlling chromatin loops and synaptonemal complex organization in mammals.

Structural insights into mechanisms of zinc scavenging by the Candida albicans zincophore Pra1

The paper determines the cryo-EM structures of C. albicans Pra1 in apo- and zinc-bound states, revealing its hexameric structure and zinc binding sites, with functional insights into its role in zinc scavenging and pathogenicity.

TOPOVIBL-REC114 interaction regulates meiotic DNA double-strand breaks

This study shows that the TOPOVIBL-REC114 interaction is essential for the efficiency and timing of meiotic DNA double-strand breaks in mice.
