    Genetic mapping of etiologic brain cell types for obesity

    Pascal N Timshel, Jonatan J Thompson, Tune H Pers
    Unbiased computational integration of single-cell- and human genetics data shows that susceptibility to obesity is driven by a broad set of neuronal populations across the brain.

    Arrayed CRISPRi and quantitative imaging describe the morphotypic landscape of essential mycobacterial genes

    Timothy J de Wet, Kristy R Winkler ... Digby F Warner
    A high-throughput functional genomics approach combining inducible CRISPR-interference and quantitative imaging yields an atlas of 'phenoprints' to guide gene function assignments, identify metabolic pathway-specific morphotypes, and inform antibiotic mechanism-of-action studies.

    Genetic architecture of natural variation in cuticular hydrocarbon composition in Drosophila melanogaster

    Lauren M Dembeck, Katalin Böröczky ... Trudy F C Mackay
    Genome wide association analyses in a wild-derived Drosophila melanogaster population uncover extensive variation in cuticular hydrocarbon composition, which may present a target for natural selection and adaptive evolution.

    Genetic and chemical validation of Plasmodium falciparum aminopeptidase PfA-M17 as a drug target in the hemoglobin digestion pathway

    Rebecca CS Edgar, Ghizal Siddiqui ... Tania F de Koning-Ward
    Plasmodium falciparum aminopeptidase PfA-M17 is essential to parasite survival and plays a role in hemoglobin digestion, providing a rationale for further development of inhibitors against this enzyme.

    Temporal analysis of enhancers during mouse cerebellar development reveals dynamic and novel regulatory functions

    Miguel Ramirez, Yuliya Badayeva ... Daniel Goldowitz
    An analysis of enhancer activity during mouse cerebellar development provides an invaluable resource for studying gene expression regulation by enhancers in the developing cerebellum and delivers a rich dataset of novel gene-enhancer associations providing a basis for future in-depth studies.
