Regulatory networks in evolution   p475
doi:10.1038/ng.3566
Comparison of evolutionary adaptations and innovations illuminates the genetic basis for the development of animal forms. Gene networks that retain similar wiring diagrams in diverse and distantly related organisms point to the ways in which regulatory regions of the genome evolve. We may be close to being able to use comparative genomics to predict the evolvability of gene networks.

Intolerable secretion and diabetes in tolerant transgenic mice, revisited   pp476 - 477
John A Todd
doi:10.1038/ng.3560
A new mouse model linking diabetes, insulin secretion and autoimmunity with a high-fat diet supports a shared mechanism for type 1 (T1D) and type 2 (T2D) diabetes. In this model, the protein secretion system of insulin-producing pancreatic beta cells is stressed, leading to increased beta cell apoptosis and diabetes via reduced levels of the transcription factor GLIS3, a pathogenic pathway that can be mimicked by a high-fat diet.

Fat eggs shape offspring health   pp478 - 479
Erica D Watson & Joanna Rakoczy
doi:10.1038/ng.3554
How maternal diet influences offspring metabolism is unclear, as it is difficult to distinguish between the effects of the in utero environment and epigenetic factors contributed by the oocyte. In a mouse model of high-fat diet, a new study teases apart these mechanisms by using in vitro fertilization and shows that susceptibility of offspring to metabolic disorder can likely be attributed to epigenetic inheritance via the oocyte.

Connecting the regulatory genome   pp479 - 480
John Stamatoyannopoulos
doi:10.1038/ng.3553
Determining how the evolving genome-wide map of distal regulatory elements is connected with target genes has remained a significant challenge, despite progress in understanding chromatin architecture and regulation. A new study presents a computational approach for predicting distal element-gene interactions.

Integration of summary data from GWAS and eQTL studies predicts complex trait gene targets   pp481 - 487
Zhihong Zhu, Futao Zhang, Han Hu, Andrew Bakshi, Matthew R Robinson, Joseph E Powell, Grant W Montgomery, Michael E Goddard, Naomi R Wray, Peter M Visscher & Jian Yang
doi:10.1038/ng.3538
Jian Yang and colleagues propose a method that integrates summary data from GWAS and eQTL studies to identify genes whose expression levels are associated with complex traits because of pleiotropy. They apply the method to five human complex traits and prioritize 126 genes for future functional studies.

Enhancer-promoter interactions are encoded by complex genomic signatures on looping chromatin   pp488 - 496
Sean Whalen, Rebecca M Truty & Katherine S Pollard
doi:10.1038/ng.3539
Sean Whalen and colleagues present a computational method, TargetFinder, for reconstructing three-dimensional regulatory landscapes using one-dimensional genomic features. TargetFinder identifies the minimal set of features necessary to predict individual interacting enhancer-promoter pairs and accurately distinguishes them from non-interacting pairs.

Genetic predisposition for beta cell fragility underlies type 1 and type 2 diabetes   pp519 - 527
James Dooley, Lei Tian, Susann Schonefeldt, Viviane Delghingaro-Augusto, Josselyn E Garcia-Perez, Emanuela Pasciuto, Daniele Di Marino, Edward J Carr, Nikolay Oskolkov, Valeriya Lyssenko, Dean Franckaert, Vasiliki Lagou, Lut Overbergh, Jonathan Vandenbussche, Joke Allemeersch, Genevieve Chabot-Roy, Jane E Dahlstrom, D Ross Laybutt, Nikolai Petrovsky, Luis Socha, Kris Gevaert, Anton M Jetten, Diether Lambrechts, Michelle A Linterman, Chris C Goodnow, Christopher J Nolan, Sylvie Lesage, Susan M Schlenner & Adrian Liston
doi:10.1038/ng.3531
Adrian Liston and colleagues use a transgenic mouse model to demonstrate that beta cell failure is a mechanistic commonality in type 1 and type 2 diabetes. They find that the changes in the molecular pathways identified as contributing to beta cell loss are paralleled in human islets from patients with type 2 diabetes.

doi:10.1038/ng.3537
Nadav Ahituv, Nicola Illing, Jeff Wall and colleagues sequence the genome of the bat Miniopterus natalensis and perform RNA-seq and ChIP-seq (H3K27ac and H3K27me3) analyses on its developing forelimb and hindlimb autopods at sequential embryonic stages. Their analyses identify genomic regions that may contribute to bat wing formation.

Genetic lineage tracing identifies endocardial origin of liver vasculature   pp537 - 543
Hui Zhang, Wenjuan Pu, Xueying Tian, Xiuzhen Huang, Lingjuan He, Qiaozhen Liu, Yan Li, Libo Zhang, Liang He, Kuo Liu, Astrid Gillich & Bin Zhou
doi:10.1038/ng.3536
Bin Zhou and colleagues use genetic labeling in mice to show that endocardial cells of the sinus venosus substantially contribute to the liver vasculature, which thus shares a common developmental origin with coronary arteries. Inhibition of endocardial angiogenesis leads to reduced endocardial contribution to the liver vasculature and to defects in liver organogenesis.

Genomic and functional analyses of Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains implicate ald in D-cycloserine resistance   pp544 - 551
Christopher A Desjardins, Keira A Cohen, Vanisha Munsamy, Thomas Abeel, Kashmeel Maharaj, Bruce J Walker, Terrance P Shea, Deepak V Almeida, Abigail L Manson, Alex Salazar, Nesri Padayatchi, Max R O'Donnell, Koleka P Mlisana, Jennifer Wortman, Bruce W Birren, Jacques Grosset, Ashlee M Earl & Alexander S Pym
doi:10.1038/ng.3548
Alexander Pym, Ashlee Earl and colleagues use the whole-genome sequences from 498 strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis to identify new genotypes conferring resistance to antitubercular drugs. They find that loss-of-function mutations in ald (Rv2780), encoding L-alanine dehydrogenase, are associated with unexplained drug resistance and demonstrate that these mutations confer resistance to D-cycloserine.

doi:10.1038/ng.3542
Douglas Epstein and colleagues use de novo motif analysis to identify sequence motifs and cognate transcription factors for brain enhancers of Shh active in the zona limitans intrathalamica (zli). They find new zli enhancers in mice and a functional equivalent in hemichordates, indicating an ancient origin of these sequence elements.

A role for the bacterial GATC methylome in antibiotic stress survival   pp581 - 586
Nadia R Cohen, Christian A Ross, Saloni Jain, Rebecca S Shapiro, Arnaud Gutierrez, Peter Belenky, Hu Li & James J Collins
doi:10.1038/ng.3530
James Collins and colleagues explore the role of the bacterial epigenome in antibiotic stress survival. They find that Escherichia coli survival under antibiotic pressure is strongly compromised in the absence of adenine methylation at GATC sites, suggesting that targeting adenine methylation might be a viable approach to enhance antibiotic activity.
