The paper quantifies how transcription is silenced during mitosis in Drosophila embryos by analyzing initiation, elongation, and termination kinetics.

The paper shows that neuronal migration in the vertebrate retina switches from active, microtubule-dependent translocation to passive, tissue-driven displacement depending on the tissue lamination state.

This study shows that age-related decline in adipose tissue lipolysis reduces disease tolerance to SARS-CoV-2, increasing mortality in older mice and correlating with human COVID-19 severity.

This study identifies SR34a as an Arabidopsis SR protein that regulates alternative splicing to counteract ABA inhibition of seedling establishment.

This study shows that limited bone marrow reconstitution impairs thymic cell competition and increases leukemia risk in gamma-c-deficient mice.

The paper identifies unconjugated bilirubin as a protective metabolite against malaria by inhibiting parasite proliferation and hemozoin formation.

The paper shows that optimistic and pessimistic cognitive biases in zebrafish affect stress reactivity and cancer progression, with optimists showing lower tumorigenesis.

This study shows that the EMC3 subunit is critical for lipid droplet homeostasis in mice and Drosophila, with loss of EMC3 causing triglyceride storage defects and reduced FITM2 levels.

This study investigates how life history traits affect genetic diversity dynamics in refugium populations during range expansion and contraction.

The paper identifies the rare DRB1*04:08-DQ8 haplotype as a major genetic driver of Early-Onset Type 1 Diabetes in the Portuguese population.

The paper shows that a fixed gene regulatory network can display different phenotypes based on local genetic context, highlighting the role of transcriptional unit order.
