    Article Title: A nuclear pore-anchored condensate enables germ granule organization and transgenerational epigenetic inheritance.
    Article Snippet: Biomolecular condensates, such as stress and germ granules, often contain subcompartments.. For instance, the Caenorhabditis elegans germ granule, which localizes near the outer nuclear membrane of germ cell nuclei, is composed of at least four ordered compartments, each housing distinct sets of proteins and RNAs.. How these compartments form and why they are spatially ordered remains poorly understood.

( A ) Representative western blot of knockdown of USP15 in human monocyte-derived macrophages (HsMDMs) from Donor 1 and Donor 2. ( B ) Representative time course from day 0 to day 3 of Mtb CFU in HsMDMs from Donor 2. ( C ) Combined normalized CFU to day 0 from day 3 of Donor 1 (D1), Donor 2 (D2), Donor 3 (D3), and Donor 4 (D4). ( D ) Representative image of mCherry Mtb (gray or red) and LC3 immunofluorescence (gray or green) in HsMDMs from Donor 5 (D5) with NTC or USP15 KD. Scale bar: 5 μm. ( E ) Quantification of LC3 colocalization in HsMDMs from Donor 5 with NTC or USP15 KD. For statistical analysis of CFU, we used two-way ANOVA and Tukey’s multiple comparison test. For statistical analysis of colocalization, we used Student’s t-test.* p<0.05, ** p<0.01, *** p<0.001, **** p<0.0001. Data shown are representative of at least 3 independent experimental replicates.

    Inhibition of USP15 by USP15-IN-1 leads to decreased Mtb burden in BV2 cells and HsMDM. ( A ) A 4-point dose response of USP15-IN-1 in WT or BV2 usp15 KO cells infected with Mtb-pLux. ( B ) Combined Relative Luminescence Units (RLU) of Day 3 from Donor 6, Donor 7, Donor 8, and Donor 9. ( C-F ) The 4-point dose response of USP15- IN-1 in ( C ) Donor 6, ( D ) Donor 7, ( E ) Donor 8, ( F ) Donor 9. ( G ) Representative immunofluorescence image of mCherry Mtb (gray or red) and LC3 (gray or green) in HsMDMs from Donor 7 with 0 μM (DMSO control) or 60 μM of 15 IN 1 at 18 h post-infection. Scale bar: 5 μm. ( H ) Quantification of LC3 colocalization in HsMDMs from donor 7. For statistical analysis for Mtb-pLux experiments, we used two-way ANOVA and Tukey’s multiple comparison test. For colocalization analysis, we used Student’s t-test. * p<0.05, ** p<0.01, *** p<0.001, **** p<0.0001. Data shown are representative of at least 3 independent experimental replicates.
