    Conservation of transcription factor binding specificities across 600 million years of bilateria evolution

    Kazuhiro R Nitta, Arttu Jolma ... Jussi Taipale
    Drosophila has almost all transcription factor binding specificities available to humans; and human transcription factors with divergent specificities operate in cell types that are not found in fruit flies.

    Dissociation rate compensation mechanism for budding yeast pioneer transcription factors

    Benjamin T Donovan, Hengye Chen ... Michael G Poirier
    The budding yeast transcription factors Reb1 and Cbf1 function as pioneer factors by slowly dissociating from nucleosomes, allowing them to target and unwrap nucleosomes efficiently to regulate transcription.

    mTORC1 is necessary but mTORC2 and GSK3β are inhibitory for AKT3-induced axon regeneration in the central nervous system

    Linqing Miao, Liu Yang ... Yang Hu
    The kinase AKT acts as a nodal point that coordinates both positive and negative cues to regulate the regeneration of central nervous system axons in adult mice.

    Cooperative unfolding of distinctive mechanoreceptor domains transduces force into signals

    Lining Ju, Yunfeng Chen ... Cheng Zhu
    New biophysical methods and analyses visualize in real-time a chain of coordinated single-molecular events on a living cell, enabling the inner workings of a mechanoreceptor important to biology to be elucidated.

    Selective androgen receptor degrader (SARD) to overcome antiandrogen resistance in castration-resistant prostate cancer

    Meng Wu, Rongyu Zhang ... Jinming Zhou
    The rational drug design combining the bioassay identified a novel selective androgen receptor (AR) degrader for both AR and AR-VRs and illustrated the synergistic importance of AR antagonism and degradation in advanced prostate cancer treatment.

    9Å structure of the COPI coat reveals that the Arf1 GTPase occupies two contrasting molecular environments

    Svetlana O Dodonova, Patrick Aderhold ... John A G Briggs
    A molecular model of the assembled COPI coat, determined by cryo-electron tomography of an in vitro reconstituted budding reaction, reveals details of interactions mediating coat assembly and shows the binding site of ArfGAP2.
