Microbiome‐blood–brain barrier interactions in aging — mechanisms and therapeutic potential
Aging reshapes the gut microbiome (↓SCFA‐producing commensals; ↑pro‐inflammatory outputs), shifting circulating metabolites (↓SCFAs; ↑LPS, ↑TMAO, ↑PAA) that act at the BBB to increase nonspecific transcytosis, alter transport, and promote astrocyte reactivity, heightening brain vulnerability.

Pregnancy-specific stress predicts birth outcomes. We hypothesized that there is a maternal stress-GR interaction that can influence fetal birth weight.

A global view of substrate phosphorylation and dephosphorylation during budding yeast mitotic exit
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.

Peripheral lysosomes recruit PLEKHG3 to focal adhesions and restrain protrusion dynamics
Proximity‐dependent labeling at the LAMTOR complex revealed the Rho GEF PLEKHG3 as a lysosome‐proximal protein directing the study toward the influence of lysosome positioning on actin dynamics and cell motility. We show that PLEKHG3 colocalizes with lysosomes at focal adhesion sites and observe that forced peripheral dispersion of lysosomes hinders ...

The 160 bp insertion in the promoter of Rht-B1i plays a vital role in increasing wheat height
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

Chromosome cohesion: A polymerase for chromosome bridges [PDF]
How do cells ensure that sister chromatids produced during DNA replication stay connected with each other until their separation in anaphase? New insight is provided by the discovery of DNA polymerase kappa, which has been found to be required for building the connections between sister chromatids.

This review focuses on the role of autophagy and mitophagy in maintaining pancreatic β‐cell function and homeostasis. We discuss how genetic defects affecting these pathways contribute to the development of type 1, type 2, monogenic, and gestational diabetes. We further explore their potential as therapeutic targets. Created in BioRender.

Chromosome condensation in mitosis and meiosis of rye (Secale cereale L.) [PDF]
Structural investigation and morphometry of meiotic chromosomes by scanning electron microscopy (in comparison to light microscopy) of all stages of condensation of meiosis I + II show remarkable differences during chromosome condensation in mitosis and ...

STAG2 loss in Ewing sarcoma alters enhancer-promoter contacts dependent and independent of EWS::FLI1
Cohesin complexes carrying STAG1 or STAG2 organize the genome into chromatin loops. STAG2 loss-of-function mutations promote metastasis in Ewing sarcoma, a pediatric cancer driven by the fusion transcription factor EWS::FLI1. We integrated transcriptomic

Synergistic perspectives—How single‐molecule biophysics complement biochemical understanding
In this review, we discuss how ensemble biochemistry and single‐molecule approaches are complementary, outline commonly used single‐molecule techniques, and illustrate their relevance through two representative case studies: chromatin organization by SMC complexes and pathway choice during DNA double‐strand break repair.
