This study shows that CMTR2 is essential for transcriptome transitions during mammalian germline development but does not trigger innate immune responses.

This study identifies PCIF1 as a host factor that methylates the SARS-CoV-2 RNA cap, enhancing viral replication and reducing disease severity in mice.

This study shows YTHDC2 is essential for meiotic pachytene progression by maintaining a meiotic transcriptome and preventing microtubule-driven telomere clustering.

The paper shows that Vasa-dependent transposon control in Drosophila female germline prevents DNA damage and developmental arrest in embryos.
