Noncanonical Nucleotides in the Genome Around the Maternal‐Zygotic Transition
In this paper, Kazzazi et al. provide a comprehensive review of the dynamics of nonconventional nucleotides in the genome during early developmental stages, hypothesizing a potential role for these nucleotides in the activation of the zygotic genome. ABSTRACT From the very moment of fertilization and throughout development, the cells of animal embryos ...

Calpain Proteases and the Evolving Signaling Network in Insect Embryonic Patterning
Insect embryonic Dorsal‐Ventral (DV) patterning relies on the BMP and Toll pathways to different extents. Calcium‐dependent cystein proteases of the Calpain family also exert an important function to pattern the DV axis. In Drosophila, Calpain A cleaves the Cactus/IkappaB inhibitor and modifies Toll signals in ventral regions of the embryo. In Rhodnius

Escaping Constraints to Innovate: Maternal Neofunctionalization in a HoxB4 Duplicate
Whole‐genome duplication in Xenopus laevis generated duplicated Hox genes that are largely constrained in sequence and developmental expression. However, HoxB4L uniquely acquired maternal expression through cis‐regulatory and protein structural divergence, illustrating how gene duplication enables transcription factors to escape pleiotropic constraints

Healing Beams: Radiation and Radiotherapy in Novels, Poems, Music, Film, Painting
Radiation and radiotherapy are perceived by patients and the general public as mysterious, dangerous and healing. The image of radiation and radiotherapy can be analysed by studying novels, poems, music, film and painting. Our paper reviews how radiation and radiotherapy are perceived by patients, the general public, as reflected in various art genres.
