This study shows transgene-derived siRNAs can regulate plant growth and drought performance without requiring the encoded protein, by rewiring endogenous regulatory networks.

This study shows CDC48A integrates blue light and gibberellin signaling through protein homeostasis to regulate photomorphogenesis in Arabidopsis.

This study shows mechanical stress improves source-to-sink partitioning and seed quality in Arabidopsis by altering vascular architecture and carbohydrate transport.

This study shows that DNA methylation regulates hypocotyl elongation during thermomorphogenesis by modulating auxin and gibberellin metabolism.

This study identifies domain-specific heterochromatin regulators in Schizosaccharomyces pombe using quantitative methods and genetic screening, revealing Dhm2's role in heterochromatin maintenance and replication fidelity.

This study shows Lem2, an inner nuclear membrane protein in S. pombe, recruits exosome co-factors to the nuclear periphery to regulate RNA degradation and coordinate transcripts during the mitosis-to-meiosis switch.

The paper shows that DNA damage triggers rDNA repeat relocation by phosphorylating the CLIP-cohibin complex, leading to SUMOylation and Cdc48/p97-mediated release from the nucleolus in yeast and human cells.

The paper investigates how PTMs on H2A variants in Arabidopsis affect cell functions and DNA damage response through motif-specific cross-talk.

The paper shows that H3K36me3 sequesters the acetyltransferase complex Mst2C to prevent heterochromatin de-repression in fission yeast.

The paper shows that subtelomeric sequences in S. pombe are hyper-recombinogenic and have unstable nucleosomes, with Ccq1 protecting them through heterochromatic repression.
