text: The plant-signaling molecule auxin triggers fast and slow cellular responses
across land plants and algae. The nuclear auxin pathway mediates gene expression
and controls growth and development in land plants, but this pathway is absent
from algal sister groups. Several components of rapid responses have been identified
in Arabidopsis, but it is unknown if these are part of a conserved mechanism.
We recently identified a fast, proteome-wide phosphorylation response to auxin.
Here, we show that this response occurs across 5 land plant and algal species
and converges on a core group of shared targets. We found conserved rapid physiological
responses to auxin in the same species and identified rapidly accelerated fibrosarcoma
(RAF)-like protein kinases as central mediators of auxin-triggered phosphorylation
across species. Genetic analysis connects this kinase to both auxin-triggered
protein phosphorylation and rapid cellular response, thus identifying an ancient
mechanism for fast auxin responses in the green lineage.

text: How tissues acquire complex shapes is a fundamental question in biology and
regenerative medicine. Zebrafish semicircular canals form from invaginations in
the otic epithelium (buds) that extend and fuse to form the hubs of each canal.
We find that conventional actomyosin-driven behaviors are not required. Instead,
local secretion of hyaluronan, made by the enzymes uridine 5′-diphosphate dehydrogenase
(ugdh) and hyaluronan synthase 3 (has3), drives canal morphogenesis. Charged hyaluronate
polymers osmotically swell with water and generate isotropic extracellular pressure
to deform the overlying epithelium into buds. The mechanical anisotropy needed
to shape buds into tubes is conferred by a polarized distribution of actomyosin
and E-cadherin-rich membrane tethers, which we term cytocinches. Most work on
tissue morphogenesis ascribes actomyosin contractility as the driving force, while
the extracellular matrix shapes tissues through differential stiffness. Our work
inverts this expectation. Hyaluronate pressure shaped by anisotropic tissue stiffness
may be a widespread mechanism for powering morphological change in organogenesis
and tissue engineering.

text: Dnmt1 epigenetically propagates symmetrical CG methylation in many eukaryotes.
Their genomes are typically depleted of CG dinucleotides because of imperfect
repair of deaminated methylcytosines. Here, we extensively survey diverse species
lacking Dnmt1 and show that, surprisingly, symmetrical CG methylation is nonetheless
frequently present and catalyzed by a different DNA methyltransferase family,
Dnmt5. Numerous Dnmt5-containing organisms that diverged more than a billion years
ago exhibit clustered methylation, specifically in nucleosome linkers. Clustered
methylation occurs at unprecedented densities and directly disfavors nucleosomes,
contributing to nucleosome positioning between clusters. Dense methylation is
enabled by a regime of genomic sequence evolution that enriches CG dinucleotides
and drives the highest CG frequencies known. Species with linker methylation have
small, transcriptionally active nuclei that approach the physical limits of chromatin
compaction. These features constitute a previously unappreciated genome architecture,
in which dense methylation influences nucleosome positions, likely facilitating
nuclear processes under extreme spatial constraints.

text: Nucleosome remodelers of the DDM1/Lsh family are required for DNA methylation
of transposable elements, but the reason for this is unknown. How DDM1 interacts
with other methylation pathways, such as small-RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM),
which is thought to mediate plant asymmetric methylation through DRM enzymes,
is also unclear. Here, we show that most asymmetric methylation is facilitated
by DDM1 and mediated by the methyltransferase CMT2 separately from RdDM. We find
that heterochromatic sequences preferentially require DDM1 for DNA methylation
and that this preference depends on linker histone H1. RdDM is instead inhibited
by heterochromatin and absolutely requires the nucleosome remodeler DRD1. Together,
DDM1 and RdDM mediate nearly all transposon methylation and collaborate to repress
transposition and regulate the methylation and expression of genes. Our results
indicate that DDM1 provides DNA methyltransferases access to H1-containing heterochromatin
to allow stable silencing of transposable elements in cooperation with the RdDM
pathway.
