Transposase‐Assisted Donor Tethering Boosts Large‐Fragment HDR in Plants
A transposase‐assisted donor tethering strategy is developed to enhance homology‐directed repair in plants. By recruiting donor DNA to double‐strand breaks and synergizing with repair pathway reprogramming and transcription‐coupled donor design, this system markedly improves large‐fragment targeted insertion efficiency, providing a robust platform for ...

Autoregulation of phage μ transposase at the level of translation [PDF]
The bacteriophage Mu A and B genes, which lie adjacent to each other and are colinear on the phage genome, encode proteins that catalyze efficient transposition of Mu DNA. We show that the molar ratio of A and B proteins is approximately 1:20 in extracts prepared after induction of cells containing a Mu lysogen or a plasmid carrying the Mu fragment ...

IGF2BP1‐mediated m6A stabilization sustains SMC1A expression, enabling cohesin‐associated chromatin regulation of Nestin in hepatocellular carcinoma. This work reveals an epitranscriptomic‐chromatin‐cytoskeletal regulatory axis linked to malignant phenotypes and identifies SMC1A as a biologically relevant vulnerability in HCC.

Transposition without transposase: a spontaneous mutation in bacteria [PDF]
Transposition mutations are typically associated with the activities of transposable elements such as transposons and insertion sequences, whose mobility is dependent upon transposase enzymes that catalyze exchanges between element ends and target sites. We describe a single transposition event in which a block of donor sequence is inserted at a target

This study identifies the mechanosensor PIEZO1 as a key factor in promoting acute myeloid leukemia progression and uncovers a ferroptosis defense system mediated by PIEZO1‐HIF1A‐SLC7A11 axis that is essential for leukemia stem cell maintenance. This ferroptotic defense system may represent a unique vulnerability for leukemia stem cells, providing a ...

P3FI–90 treatment targets KDM3B, reshapes the epigenetic landscape, and suppresses SHP1 expression, thereby activating STING–TBK1–IRF3–type I IFN signaling pathway. Consequently, CD8+ T cells are recruited to the tumor site and activated to produce IFN–γ and GZMB, leading to the killing of TNBC cells.

We developed the ASCAL pipeline, integrating complementary spatial transcriptomics, to construct a high‐fidelity mouse whole‐eye single‐cell atlas. Applying ASCAL to a retinal artery occlusion (RAO) model revealed spatially restricted immune activation localized to the ganglion cell layer and the selective depletion of a translationally active, outer ...

Increasing transposase abundance with ocean depth correlates with a particle-associated lifestyle
Transposases are mobile genetic elements that move within and between genomes, promoting genomic plasticity in microorganisms. In marine microbial communities, the abundance of transposases increases with depth, but the reasons behind this trend remain ...
