Epigenetic gatekeeping enables genome-scale horizontal gene transfer in eukaryotic cells
Abstract Horizontal gene transfer drives rapid evolutionary innovation, yet well-substantiated cases are largely confined to prokaryotes. Eukaryote-to-eukaryote transfer remains exceptionally rare, and direct genome-scale demonstrations are absent. Here, inspired by endosymbiotic genome acquisition, we show that mammalian cells can initiate genome-scale horizontal gene transfer through phagocytic uptake of intact algal cells, albeit at a much lower frequency than cell fusion.
Two-step regulation of centromere distribution by condensin II and the nuclear envelope proteins - Nature Plants
Abstract The arrangement of centromeres within the nucleus differs among species and cell types. However, neither the mechanisms determining centromere distribution nor its biological significance are currently well understood. In this study, we demonstrate the importance of centromere distribution for the maintenance of genome integrity through the cytogenic and molecular analysis of mutants defective in centromere distribution.

China’s protectionist policies in high-tech industries require U.S. response
Emerging technologies such as self-driving cars, personalized medicine, and military robots are all on cusp on transforming every aspect of how we conduct business, go to war, and live our lives. A country that leads the world in developing these cutting-edge technologies will gain a military edge and dominate the global economy in these new, fast-growing markets. The United States must decide whether it wants to remain a technological leader or cede its leadership to China.
