Plant Kelch phosphatases are Ser/Thr phosphatases involved in cell cycle regulation

This study reclassifies plant Kelch phosphatases as PP1-like serine/threonine phosphatases involved in cell cycle regulation rather than tyrosine phosphatases in brassinosteroid signaling.

Deficient spermiogenesis in mice lacking Rlim

This study shows that Rlim is essential for spermiogenesis in male mice, as its deletion leads to defective sperm production and fertility issues.

UPRmt scales mitochondrial network expansion with protein synthesis via mitochondrial import

The paper shows that mitochondrial network expansion during development is controlled by the UPRmt pathway, which is influenced by protein synthesis and the mitochondrial import capacity of ATFS-1.

Distinct features of nucleolus-associated domains in mouse embryonic stem cells

The paper maps nucleolus-associated domains (NADs) in mouse embryonic stem cells, revealing developmental differences in their characteristics compared to mouse embryonic fibroblasts.

Two Contrasting Classes of Nucleolus-Associated Domains in Mouse Fibroblast Heterochromatin

The paper identifies two distinct classes of Nucleolus-Associated Domains (NADs) in mouse fibroblasts using deep sequencing and a new tool, showing differences in chromatin features and gene expression.

Ki-67 Contributes To Normal Cell Cycle Progression And Inactive X Heterochromatin In p21 Checkpoint-Proficient Human Cells

This study shows that Ki-67 depletion in human cells slows S phase entry and disrupts Xi heterochromatin maintenance, with p21 playing a key role in these effects.
