Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology, Published online: 11 September 2026; doi:10.1038/s41580-026-01028-1Four recent studies that have differently assessed PRC2–RNA interactions reveal key technical pitfalls underlying research in the field.

Plants need to carefully control which genes are active as they grow and switch from one developmental stage to another. A new study by Geshkovski et al. reveals that ULTRAPETALA1 (ULT1)…

Nature Reviews Genetics, Published online: 17 September 2026; doi:10.1038/s41576-026-01008-3In this Review, Buckley et al. discuss how DNA methylation is interpreted in mammals and plants, focusing on the reader proteins and transcription factors that bind to methylated DNA and the downstream mechanisms by which they regulate transcriptional and epigenetic states.

To cause rice blast disease, the filamentous fungus Magnaporthe oryzae develops a specialised infection cell called an appressorium, which generates enormous turgor to breach the rice leaf cuticle. Al...

This study introduces iChIP2, a low-input chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing method that profiles histone post-translational modifications (hPTMs) simultaneously across diverse eukar...

Transcription factor nanoclusters balance the DNA binding trade-off between weakly binding oligomers and nonspecific condensates.

Dosage-sensitive transcription factors (TFs) underlie altered gene regulation in human developmental disorders, and cell type–specific gene regulation is linked to the reorganization of three-dimensio...
