Since the 1960s, the genetic code has been used to predict protein sequences from DNA and mRNA sequences. Our @nature.com article demonstrates that these predictions miss thousands of protein sequences present in human tissues.

Scientific figures can strongly influence how research findings are interpreted. This ‘How to’ Comment article in Nature Human Behaviour outlines a practical strategy for creating figures that communicate clearly across audiences and scientific contexts. go.nature.com/3R00b1t #Academicsky 🧪

Nature research paper: The integrated stress response promotes immune evasion through lipocalin 2

The integrated stress response promotes immune evasion through lipocalin 2 - Nature
The transcription factor ATF4 and its effector lipocalin 2 (LCN2) have a key role in immune evasion and tumour progression, and targeting the ATF4–LCN2 axis might provide a way to treat several types of solid tumour by increasing anti-cancer immunity.

Repeated cloning cannot be sustained indefinitely in mammals, according to a 20-year study in mice published in Nature Communications. The results suggest that sexual reproduction is necessary to eliminate large-scale genetic mutations that can accumulate in mammalian clones. 🧬 🧪
Limitations of serial cloning in mammals - Nature Communications
Here they show that extended serial somatic cell cloning imposes a threefold increase in de novo mutations compared to natural reproduction, progressively reducing birth rates and ultimately limiting clonal propagation to 58 generations.
