Bacterial partition complexes segregate within the volume of the nucleoid

In most bacteria and archaea, a broadly conserved mitotic-like apparatus assures the inheritance of duplicated genetic material before cell division. Here, the authors use super-resolution microscopies to dissect the activities required for proper DNA segregation through the nucleoid interior.

BMAL1 and ARNT enable circadian HIF2α responses in clear cell renal cell carcinoma

BMAL1–HIF2α heterodimer was recently shown to modulate circadian variations in myocardial injury. Here, the authors show that BMAL1 can form a heterodimer with HIF2α in clear cell renal cell carcinoma, contributing to tumor progression and response to HIF2α antagonist drugs.

Reward history guides focal attention in whisker somatosensory cortex

Mice flexibly shift attention between specific whiskers on a rapid timescale based on recent stimulus reward history in a detection task. Attention is correlated with a somatotopically precise enhancement of neural coding in somatosensory cortex.

Spatial organization of translation and translational repression in two phases of germ granules

Biomolecular condensates are often composed of immiscible phases. Here, the authors reveal a functional biphasic organization of germ granules, where translational repression happens in the granule core and translation in the outer phase.

Identifying proteins bound to native mitotic ESC chromosomes reveals chromatin repressors are important for compaction

Epigenetic information is transmitted from mother to daughter cells through mitosis. Here, the authors isolate native chromosomes from metaphase-arrested cells and perform LC-MS/MS to identify chromosome-bound proteins in pluripotent stem cells during mitosis and reveal that PRC2, DNA methylation and Mecp2 are required to maintain chromosome compaction.

Timed use of digoxin prevents heart ischemia–reperfusion injury through a REV-ERBα–UPS signaling pathway

The heart’s tolerance to ischemia–reperfusion injury varies according to a day–night cycle. Vinod et al. show that a timed low dose of cardiac glycosides, such as digoxin, is protective against heart ischemia–reperfusion injury by promoting the proteasomal degradation of the molecular-clock component and transrepressive nuclear receptor REV-ERBα.
