Kao et al. discuss the metabolic crosstalk between cancer cells and immune cells and how this impacts immune surveillance and anti-tumour immune responses.
In this Review, Andrew Modzelewski, Johnny Gan Chong, Ting Wang and Lin He discuss how sequences introduced by transposon activities provide raw material for genome innovation and document the distinct evolutionary path of each species.
In this Review, Polyak and colleagues discuss cellular and microenvironmental mechanisms that contribute to intratumour heterogeneity and how this affects immune escape and tumour progression.
Studying SARS-CoV-2 in organoids. Chen et al. review the emerging roles of complex organoids in the study of SARS-CoV-2 infection, modelling of COVID-19 disease pathology and in drug, antibody and vaccine development.
In this Review, Hurley and colleagues cover the most recent discoveries and the emerging molecular understanding of the mechanisms of autophagosome formation.
Legube and Marnef review the association between R-loops and DNA repair. They discuss how R-loops are formed near DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) and how R-loops affect transcription near DSBs and DSB repair processes.
Karoutas and Akhtar review the roles of the nuclear lamina in chromatin-related functions, including transcription, epigenetic regulation and chromatin architecture, and their abnormalities in diseases and ageing.
Qi and colleagues review CRISPR-based epigenome engineering technologies to modulate histone and DNA modifications and to perturb DNA and RNA regulatory elements and chromatin organization.
The intestinal stem cell niche McCarthy, Kraiczy and Shivdasani review the cellular and molecular organisation of the mammalian intestinal stem cell niche and its functions.
Groth and colleagues discuss recent advances in chromatin replication and maintenance across mitotic division, with emphasis on replication-coupled chromatin assembly and chromatin maturation post-replication.
Harnessing DNA repair pathways in genome editing In this Review, Yeh, Richardson and Corn discuss the DNA repair pathways that underlie genome editing and recent improvements and strategies to yield desired genomic alterations in cells and organisms.
In this Review, Caridi et al. discuss actin filaments in the nucleus and the functions of nuclear F-actin in response to DNA double-strand break repair.
In this Review, the authors survey key advances in stem cell research and describe the cell types that are currently being used in the clinic or are close to clinical trials.
Yao et al. review functions of lncRNAs in controlling chromatin architecture, transcription and nuclear bodies in the nucleus and in modulating mRNA stability, translation and protein modifications in the cytoplasm.
Perez and Lehner summarize recent discoveries regarding epigenetic inheritance across generations and review the molecular mechanisms underlying non-DNA sequence-based transmissions.
