EMBO Reports
@emboreports
We publish research in molecular biology, reviews, and science & society commentaries. Posts by the editors.
Aflah Hanafiah, Zhonghua Gao et al show that cPRC1.2 complex forms #chromatin loops at poised bivalent promoters. A switch from cPRC1.2-mediated to CTCF-mediated active loops enables differentiation to #neuronal progenitors and activation of lineage-specific genes. link.springer.com/article/10.1...
“… the most impactful publications in modern science are increasingly not primary theoretical or experimental findings, but the methodological innovations that enable and support them.” Read the full Science & Society article by Krauss, Rosenfeld & Bornmann -> link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Philippe Dehio @pdehio.bsky.social, Christoph Hess and co-authors describe a conserved VPS34-PIKfyve pathway regulating #T cell and amoeboid cell migration speed via #lysosome Ca2+ efflux, #myosin IIA activation and retrograde #actin flow. -> link.springer.com/article/10.1...
Mindong Ren, Michael Schlame and co-authors show that cardiolipin de novo synthesis, but not remodeling, is essential for mouse postnatal maturation of cardiac mitochondria, respiratory chain biogenesis and cardiac function. #lipid #mitochondria -> link.springer.com/article/10.1...
Gayatri Rai, Bama Charan Mondal and co-authors show that the COP9 signalosome and Cullin-RING #ubiquitin ligases regulate the cell fate of myeloid-type blood progenitors in Drosophila via EGF and #WNT #singaling. -> link.springer.com/article/10.1...
Timo-Daniel Voss @unihohenheim.bsky.social and co-authors show that C-terminal lysine residues localise NLRP10 at lipid droplets and govern #NLRP10 oligomer formation. link.springer.com/article/10.1... Press releases: www.uni-hohenheim.de/index.php?id... idw-online.de/de/news873496
Schistosomiasis affects 110 million African children. Its control demands an urgent shift from drug treatments to permanent transmission interruption. Read the article by Francisca Mutapi and Mark EJ Woolhouse here: -> link.springer.com/article/10.1...
Margot Sahnine, Dorian Obino and co-workers @pasteur.fr show that N. meningitidis induces membrane protrusions with distinct #F-actin networks in epithelial and endothelial cells. The branched network in endothelia depends on Arf1. #Host-pathogen #membrane -> link.springer.com/article/10.1...
A new review is online! Wassim Daher, Laurent Kremer and co-authors @umontpellier.bsky.social @inserm.fr @irim-life.bsky.social tell you all you need to know about organelle interplay in host responses and #mycobacterial #resilience. -> link.springer.com/article/10.1...
