DNA damage checkpoints are key regulatory signaling cascades that arrest cell cycle progression upon DNA damage or upon DNA replication stalling and allow time for repair or correction. Failure to elicit these checkpoints can lead to genomi...

Viruses must egress from the cells in which they have replicated to spread and propagate. Historically, viruses have been classified into enveloped and nonenveloped forms: Enveloped viruses exploit cellular membrane-trafficking pathways to ...

Gram-negative bacteria are intrinsically resistant to many antibiotics because they are surrounded by an outer membrane that creates a robust permeability barrier. The outer membrane has an unusual asymmetric structure with a periplasmic le...

Retroviral and retrotransposon invasion pose a constant threat to genome integrity and have driven the evolution of host defense pathways able to counter these attacks. The human silencing hub (HUSH complex) is an epigenetic transcriptional...

Microproteins are polypeptides of 100-150 amino acids or fewer that have not been annotated by genome annotation consortia, given their small size and other noncanonical properties. Translated microproteins are now known to number in the th...

Once considered heretical, the idea that environmental conditions experienced in one generation can influence traits in future generations is now increasingly accepted. In particular, hundreds of studies in mammals have documented effects o...
