A chromosome-scale, annotated reference genome for the common cuttlefish Sepia officinalis clarifies its karyotype and reveals cephalopod-specific gene family expansions across neural and non-neural tissues.

Early enhancer logic precisely aligns developmental boundaries by integrating HOX, GATA, and signaling inputs, ensuring correct tissue patterning and preventing mirror-image duplications in the developing wing.

The yeast Drosha homolog Rnt1 has a major role in mRNA degradation.

Replication origins in Trypanosoma brucei integrate multiple features previously described individually in opisthokonts, revealing a unified structural topology built from strand-specific nucleotide composition, G‑quadruplex enrichment, and distinctive nucleosome patterns.

The Mettl5/Trmt112 complex alters rRNA methylation, increasing PERIOD protein linking ribosome function, clock genes, and proteasome in sleep regulation in Drosophila.

Residual plasma from rapid routine clinical chemistry tubes enables cell-free DNA NGS-based analysis, providing an untapped, scalable, and accessible resource without specialized collection workflows.
