Comparative regulomics of wood formation across dicot and conifer trees

Nature Communications Eduardo Rodriguez, Siri Birkeland, Ellen Dimmen Chapple et al. Jul 22, 2026 DOI: 10.1038/s41467-026-75624-2

Abstract Understanding the regulatory program underlying wood formation is key to improving biomass production and carbon sequestration in trees. However, how wood formation evolved and how these programs have been rewired across lineages remains unclear. Here, we present the first high-spatial-resolution evo-devo resource for wood transcriptomes spanning multiple dicots and conifers, representing the two major tree-containing lineages separated by more than 300 million years of evolution. Using orthology-aware co-expression network analysis, we identified genes with conserved and lineage-specific expression patterns. By integrating chromatin accessibility data and transcription factor motif analysis, we further inferred candidate regulatory networks for xylem differentiation and secondary cell wall formation. We demonstrate how this dataset can be used to answer long standing questions in wood biology related to differences in acetylation of cell wall polymers and master regulators of xylem specification across dicot and conifer tree species. The data offer a resource for the tree biology and evo-devo communities, and are publicly available at PlantGenIE.org.

Structural insights enable drug discovery for the neuronal NBCn2 carbonate transporter

Nature Communications Shifan Yang, Yihan Zhao, Sezen Vatansever et al. Jul 22, 2026 DOI: 10.1038/s41467-026-75444-4

Abstract NBCn2 (SLC4A10), a member of the SLC4 solute carrier (SLC) family, is a sodium-dependent (bi)carbonate transporter that regulates acid extrusion in various brain regions. Mutations in NBCn2 cause severe neurodevelopmental disorders in humans, and knock out studies suggest that its role in regulating neuronal excitability could hold therapeutic potential for seizure disorders such as epilepsy. Despite its physiological importance, NBCn2’s molecular mechanisms remain largely unknown, and there is limited availability of tool compounds to further probe its role in health and disease. Combining cryoEM with computational docking and simulation studies, we herein elucidate NBCn2’s molecular architecture and substrate binding mechanisms on the atomic scale. Via structure-based drug discovery we further identify a compound series that inhibits NBCn2-mediated transport, and characterize its inhibitory mechanisms via cryoEM. Lastly, we showcase the potential of this compound series to template useful probes by demonstrating pharmacological activity both in primary culture as well as brain slices.
