This study identifies a direct interaction between the RNA helicase KREH2 and the RESC1-RESC2 complex in trypanosomatid mitochondrial RNA editing using biochemical and structural methods.

This study identifies hepatic γδ NKT cells as modulators of liver-resident CD8+ T cell responses in malaria vaccine efficacy, showing their role in protection through IFNγ production and tissue-homing properties.

The paper identifies KREH2 helicase as a repressor of ND7 mRNA editing in T. brucei by modulating canonical and moonlighting gRNA utilization, revealing its dual role in developmental editing control.

The paper identifies critical domains of KREPA3 essential for RNA editing complex structure and function in Trypanosoma brucei, showing stage-specific effects of mutations.
