Open AccessComparison of lipidome profiles of Caenorhabditis elegans—results from an inter-laboratory ring trial
Lipidomic profiling allows 100s if not 1000s of lipids in a sample to be detected and quantified. Modern lipidomics techniques are ultra-sensitive assays that enable the discovery of novel biomarkers in a vari...

The histone H3.3 chaperone HIRA is essential for chromatin assembly in the male pronucleus
In sexually reproducing animals, a crucial step in zygote formation is the decondensation of the fertilizing sperm nucleus into a DNA replication-competent male pronucleus. Genome-wide nucleosome assembly on p...

mei-41 is required for precocious anaphase in Drosophila females
This paper reports on a new role for mei-41 in cell cycle control during meiosis. This function is revealed by the requirement of mei-41 for the precocious anaphase observed in crossover-defective mutants. Normal...
