The paper develops a toolkit of membrane-localising tags tested across ten animal species to identify effective signals for targeting proteins to the plasma membrane.

This study shows that disrupting a regulatory element in the CEBPA gene of African turquoise killifish increases lifespan and healthspan by enhancing full-length C/EBP isoform activity.

The paper introduces OneSABER, a unified open platform for RNA in situ hybridization using SABER probes, demonstrating its application in flatworm regeneration studies.

The paper shows that heat stress increases LTR retrotransposon transcription in Macrostomum lignano by hijacking the heat shock response pathway, a mechanism previously known in plants.

This paper optimizes RNA interference protocols in Macrostomum lignano by demonstrating that single soaking in dsRNA solution is sufficient for effective gene knockdown, reducing time and cost.

The paper assembles and annotates the genome of Symsagittifera roscoffensis to study its phylogenetic position and molecular mechanisms of symbiosis.

DARTS identifies retrotransposons by analyzing conserved protein domains, showing higher sensitivity for LTR-RTs than LTRharvest.
