  • Here the authors reveal that a neomorphic mutation in chromatin protein SMCHD1 enhances SMCHD1-mediated gene silencing, including at the FSHD disease-relevant locus, while depleting SMCHD1-mediated chromatin interactions, suggesting these SMCHD1 functions are unlinked.

  • This analysis leverages experimentally sequenced data and in silico mixtures to simulate transcript expression differences, which enables a performance assessment of long-read tools developed for isoform detection, differential transcript expression analysis and differential transcript usage analysis.

  • Parents transmit both genetic and epigenetic information to their offspring, with maternal effect genes being critical regulators of the offspring epigenome. Here they show that maternally deposited SMCHD1 has long-lasting effects on Hox gene expression and vertebral patterning during post-implantation development.

  • Female embryonic stem cells (ESCs) are the ideal model to study X chromosome inactivation (XCI) establishment; however, these cells are challenging to keep in culture. Here the authors create fluorescent ‘Xmas’ reporter mice as a renewable source of ESCs and show nucleosome remodelers Smarcc1 and Smarca4 create a nucleosome-free promoter region prior to the establishment of silencing.

  • This study reports a transcriptome atlas of the germinating Arabidopsis embryo at single-cell resolution. It demonstrates that the cells of the embryo transition from a common transcriptional state to cell type-specific states as germination progresses.
