Transposon-triggered epigenetic chromatin dynamics modulate EFR-related pathogen response

R. Mencia, A. L. Arce, C. Houriet, W. Xian, A. Contreras, G. Shirsekar, D. Weigel, P. A. Manavella

This study shows how a transposon influences chromatin structure to regulate immune response genes in Arabidopsis, providing insights for crop improvement.

Loss of Zfp335 triggers cGAS/STING-dependent apoptosis of post-β selection pre-T cells

J. J. Ratiu, W. E. Barclay, Q. Wang, N. Mehta, M. J. Harnois, D. DiPalma, S. Wellford, S. Roy, A. Contreras, D. Wiest, Y. Zhuang

This study identifies Zfp335 as a transcription factor that regulates survival of post-β-selection DN4 thymocytes by suppressing cGAS/STING-dependent apoptosis.
