This study shows that gene clusters for magnetite formation in bacteria confer resistance to hydrogen peroxide, supporting an early origin of magnetotactic bacteria before Earth's oxygenation.

The paper investigates chromatin state reorganization during leg regeneration in pancrustaceans, finding a conserved sequence of chromatin resetting and pioneer factor activation across species.

This study investigates how Rad55-Rad57 and Srs2 regulate homology search in yeast by controlling Rad51-ssDNA filament stability and coordination.

This paper characterizes the kinetic properties of the optogenetic LiCre-loxP system using in vitro and in vivo experiments, revealing temperature-dependent efficiency and a model for recombination synapse formation.

The paper identifies condensin-dependent loop extrusion and roadblocks in S. cerevisiae, showing their role in homology search during DNA repair.

The paper identifies trans-acting mutations in yeast that modulate gene expression noise in both intrinsic and extrinsic ways, revealing non-nuclear factors influencing nuclear gene expression.

The paper introduces a method to identify drug-sensitive protein-protein interactions in live cells using ERK1 as a case study, showing how inhibitory molecules affect these interactions.

This paper investigates the mechanism of homology search expansion during DNA break repair, revealing how chromatin structure, NPF stiffening, and resection drive genome-wide search.

This study shows cohesin promotes cis dsDNA over-sampling during homology search in yeast by blocking cohesin progression and enabling loop expansion-coupled scanning.
