Fezf2 regulates differentiation of Aire-expressing and post-Aire mimetic epithelial populations maintaining thymic homeostasis

Joe Germino, Xian Liu, Yi Wang…·Corey N. Miller

This study shows Fezf2 regulates mTEC lineage commitment and homeostasis, with transcriptional repression playing a key role in maintaining thymic epithelial populations.

Single cell sequencing as a general variant interpretation assay

Hongxia Xu, Ling Chen, Mohan Sun…·Kyle Kai‐How Farh

The paper uses single cell RNA sequencing to assess the effects of protein-altering variants in three genes, showing that single cell expression signatures are more effective than bulk assays and computational models for predicting pathogenicity.
