This study expands the clinical spectrum of SMARCA4 by describing a novel phenotype in three unrelated individuals with truncating variants. Distinct from Coffin–Siris syndrome and rhabdoid tumor predisposition, this new association is characterized by ocular malformations, specifically microphthalmia and coloboma.

Liquid–Liquid Phase Separation in Major Hallmarks of Cancer
Aberrant condensates formed through phase separation are involved in the dysregulation of various critical cellular processes, including genome stability, transcriptional regulation and signal transduction, thereby promoting malignant transformation and the acquisition of multiple cancer hallmarks.

Human FASTK preferentially binds single‐stranded and G‐rich RNA
Although FASTK is known to play a role in mRNA biology, the mechanism through which it recognizes RNA has yet to be unraveled. Here, we used purified human FASTK to characterize its RNA‐binding properties in vitro. We found that FASTK prefers ssRNA oligonucleotides containing guanines with the potential to form G‐quadruplexes and binds robustly to any ...

Respiratory syncytial virus phosphoprotein has NTPase and helicase-like activities
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), a non-segmented, negative-sense RNA virus (NNSV) in the family Pneumoviridae, represents a significant global health burden causing severe lower respiratory tract infections in infants and immunocompromised adults ...

Molecular basis of antibiotic sensing by the TetR family regulator CecR – a structural perspective
Escherichia coli CecR, a member of the TetR family regulators, senses selected antibiotics and activates the expression of a putative drug efflux pump. Although present in many pathogenic Enterobacteriales strains, CecR remains poorly characterized. We present the first CecR crystal structure, which reveals a unique tunnel‐like ligand‐binding cavity ...
