Translational control is emerging as a key regulator of cancer. The RNA-binding protein PABPC1 is shown to drive chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) by enhancing the translation of pro-oncogenic mRNAs thr...

SLC7A11 acts as an unconventional proton exporter in lysosomes regulating proteolytic degradation, ferroptotic cell death, and Parkinson’s disease pathology.

The structure and function of the MCR activation complex from Methanococcus maripaludis were revealed, demonstrating its ATP-dependent ability to activate MCR and form methane while uncovering a unique electron transfer pathway involving iron–sulfur clusters similar to the nitrogenase cofactor intermediates.

Nature Reviews Genetics, Published online: 11 April 2025; doi:10.1038/s41576-025-00836-zPost-transcriptional splicing has emerged as a key layer of gene expression regulation but is challenging to differentiate from co-transcriptional splicing. The authors review methodologies to detect post-transcriptional splicing, the mechanisms controlling splicing timing and how the temporal regulation of splicing affects gene expression.
