      This manuscript characterizes a mutated clone of RNA polymerase I in yeast, referred to as SuperPol, to understand the mechanisms of RNA polymerase I elongation and termination. The authors present convincing evidence that demonstrates the existence of premature termination in Pol I transcription. Overall, the characterization of this RNA pol I offers important insights into the regulation of ribosomal RNA transcription and its potential application in cancer pharmacology.

      This valuable manuscript uses mathematical modeling to address the synchrony of the vertebrate segmentation clock with the developmental processes. The authors use convincing arguments to support the idea that this would allow the evolution of flexible body plans and a variable number of segments. This manuscript could be of interest to developmental biologists and systems biologists.

      This study provides compelling evidence that kinesin's stepping mechanism is governed by strain-induced conformational changes in its nucleotide-binding pockets. Using pre-steady state kinetics and single-molecule assays, the authors demonstrate that the neck linker's conformation differentially modulates nucleotide affinity and detachment rates, establishing an asynchronous chemo-mechanical cycle that prevents simultaneous detachment. Supported by cryo-EM structural data, the work presents an important advance in our understanding of kinesin's hand-over-hand movement.

      The manuscript presents a valuable finding that CCDC32, beyond its reported role in AP2 assembly, follows AP2 to the plasma membrane and regulates clathrin-coated pit assembly and dynamics. The authors further identify an alpha-helical region within CCDC32 that is essential for its interaction with AP2 and its cellular function. While live-cell and ultrastructural imaging data are solid, future biochemical studies will be needed to confirm the proposed CCDC32-AP2 interaction.
