By dissecting and comparing the transcriptional trajectories and epigenomic traits of reprogramming and transforming cells at the single-cell resolution, Huyghe et al discovered Bcl11b and Atoh8, two key transcription factors controlling cell plasticity during pluripotent reprogramming and oncogenic transformation.

The mitochondrial unfolded protein response (UPRmt) is dedicated to promoting mitochondrial proteostasis and is linked to extreme longevity. The key regulator of this process is the transcription factor ATFS-1, which, upon UPRmt activation, is excluded from the mitochondria and enters the nucleus to regulate UPRmt genes. However, the repair proteins synthesized as a direct result of UPRmt activation must be transported into damaged mitochondria that had previously excluded ATFS-1 owing to reduced import efficiency. To address this conundrum, we analyzed the role of the import machinery when the UPRmt was induced. Using in vitro and in vivo analysis of mitochondrial …
