Rad53 checkpoint kinase regulation of DNA replication fork rate via Mrc1 phosphorylation
eLife, 2021 The Rad53 DNA checkpoint protein kinase plays multiple roles in the budding yeast cell response to DNA replication stress. Key amongst these is its enigmatic role in safeguarding DNA replication forks.

Dynamic chromatin regulatory programs during embryogenesis of hexaploid wheat
Genome Biology, 2023 Background Plant and animal embryogenesis have conserved and distinct features. Cell fate transitions occur during embryogenesis in both plants and animals. The epigenomic processes regulating plant embryogenesis remain largely elusive.

Developmental enhancers and chromosome topology
Science, 2018 Developmental enhancers mediate on/off patterns of gene expression in specific cell types at particular stages during metazoan embryogenesis. They typically integrate multiple signals and regulatory determinants to achieve precise spatiotemporal ...

Cell-Cycle Regulation of Dynamic Chromosome Association of the Condensin Complex
Cell Reports, 2018 Summary: Eukaryotic cells inherit their genomes in the form of chromosomes, which are formed from the compaction of interphase chromatin by the condensin complex. Condensin is a member of the structural maintenance of chromosomes (SMC) family of ATPases,

Nature Communications, 2019 RAD51 assembly on single-stranded DNAs is an important step in the homology-dependent repair of DNA damage. Here authors reveal a role for the human RAD51 paralogue, SWSAP1, as a regulator of RAD51 assembly, by antagonizing RAD51 remodeller, FIGNL1 AAA +

A global view of substrate phosphorylation and dephosphorylation during budding yeast mitotic exit
Microbial Cell, 2018 The cell cycle is the process by which a cell duplicates its DNA during S-phase and divides its chromosomes during M-phase, creating two genetically identical daughter cells.

The 160 bp insertion in the promoter of Rht-B1i plays a vital role in increasing wheat height
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2016 The extensive use of two alleles (Rht-B1b and Rht-D1b) at the Rht-1 locus in wheat allowed dramatic increases in yields, triggering the so-called Green Revolution. Here, we found that a new natural allelic variation (Rht-B1i) containing a single missense

Exploring lipid diversity and minimalism to define membrane requirements for synthetic cells
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Designing the lipid membrane of synthetic cells is a complex task, in which its various roles (among them solute transport, membrane protein support, and self‐replication) should all be integrated. In this review, we report the latest top‐down and bottom‐up advances and discuss compatibility and complexity issues of current engineering approaches ...

Plasmodium falciparum gametogenesis essential protein 1 (GEP1) is a transmission‐blocking target
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This study shows Plasmodium falciparum GEP1 is vital for activating sexual stages of malarial parasites even independently of a mosquito factor. Knockout parasites completely fail gamete formation even when a phosphodiesterase inhibitor is added. Two single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (V241L and S263P) are found in 12%–20% of field samples.
