Dr. Chrystal Starbird is the winner of the first Rising Black Scientist Award for a post-graduate scholar. For this award, we asked emerging Black scientists to tell us about the experiences that spar...

Nature Structural & Molecular Biology, Published online: 30 September 2026; doi:10.1038/s41594-026-01877-6Koenig et al. present a phosphoproteome atlas of 33 human cell lines covering >200,000 phosphosites, advancing cellular kinase activity scoring and drug sensitivity prediction, providing a resource for cell signaling insights and precision oncology.

Tissue morphogenesis, the formation of stereotypical tissue shapes and sizes, relies on the precise spatiotemporal regulation of many cellular behaviours including cell division, migration and re-arr…

Simulations integrating micro-C and imaging data provide a coherent view of chromatin organization from nucleosomes to clutches to domains, revealing that most regions form compact domains but short r...

Development depends on gene regulation by enhancers across long genomic distances. This Perspective discusses mechanisms enabling long-range enhancer–promoter communication and the potential advantage...

Hand in hand - E-cadherin with E-cadherin: The number of E-cadherin connections influences morphogenetic tissue movements.

The genomic regions regulating gene expression are often themselves transcribed into a variety of noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs). However, the regulatory roles of this noncoding transcription remain largely ...

During development and regeneration, tissues undergo large-scale remodelling and it remains unclear how such morphogenetic movements influence immune cell guidance. A study by Le et al. shows that ect...

A $2.9 million R01 research award from the National Institutes of Health will support the efforts of engineers at the UC Santa Cruz Genomics Institute to further develop and drive down the cost of com...

DNA methylation is an important epigenetic mechanism involved in gene regulation. Most methods focus on analysing DNA methylation averaged from multiple reads, yet these average methylation profiles o...

In this Review, Izzo et al. discuss how single-cell multimodal sequencing enables genotype–phenotype mapping and, when combined with phylogenetic reconstruction, provide insights into clonal evolution, cell state plasticity, and cancer progression, revealing mutant-specific vulnerabilities and offering a framework to study somatic evolution across pre-malignant and malignant human tissues.
