      This important study uses an innovative set of reporter assays to probe the role of the TnpB protein in IS608 transposition. The work provides independent support for the recently reported homing activity of TnpB, where the transposon is restored following excision, and suggests an additional function for TnpB in enhancing the transposase activity of the TnpA transposase. The overall approach is solid, but the authors should consider how the activity of the TnpB protein used, or the levels of ωRNA, impact their model.

      This important study presents a new way to selectively activate a cell signaling pathway in a specific cell type by designer ligands that link signaling co-receptors to a marker specific to the target cells. Convincing experimental results demonstrate that the agonist molecules activate Wnt signaling in target cells expressing the marker as intended. More broadly, this concept could be used to induce Wnt signaling or another pathway initiated by co-receptor association in a cell type-specific manner. In vitro results in this study could be further strengthened by assessing the biological consequences of Wnt activation in target cells.

      Experimental models of simple cell-like compartments can help us to understand how biology operated early in its history. The authors convincingly show how the properties of coacervate droplets can be influenced by the activity of ribozymes inside them. This important result potentially provides a new route for biologists or chemists to establish cell mimics that support the evolution of biomolecules within.

      This manuscript will be of interest to those working on non-neuronal bioelectricity, particular synthetic biologists and bioengineers. The primary contribution is the ability to leverage engineered gene circuits to control cellular membrane potential. We find issue, however, with the presentation of the data in this work as electrical communication since the synchronous behavior largely arises from external chemical stimuli.
