Cover: Zebrafish embryos at 24 hours post fertilisation co-injected with mature microRNA-30a (miR30a) and a reporter construct expressing GFP upstream of the mutated 3′UTR of six1a. In normal muscle development, injection with miR30a results in reduced endogenous expression of six1a and repression of a GFP-reporter containing the full length 3′UTR of six1a. When all three miR30a-binding sites in the six1a 3′UTR are deleted, GFP-reporter expression is de-repressed, resulting in fluorescence as shown in these images, which were pseudo-colored using Adobe Photoshop. See article by J. H. O'Brien et al. (pp. 2291–2301).

Call for papers - Cilia and Flagella: from Basic Biology to Disease
We are welcoming submissions for our upcoming special issue: Cilia and Flagella: from Basic Biology to Disease. This issue will be coordinated by two Guest Editors: Pleasantine Mill (University of Edinburgh) and Lotte Pedersen (University of Copenhagen). Extended submission deadline: 31 March 2025.
History of our journals
As our publisher, The Company of Biologists, turns 100 years old, read about Journal of Cell Science’s journey and explore the history of each of our sister journals: Development, Journal of Experimental Biology, Disease Models & Mechanisms and Biology Open.
Introducing our new Associate Editors
In this Editorial, JCS Editor-in-Chief Michael Way welcomes five new Associate Editors to the JCS team. These Associate Editors will expand our support for the wider cell biology community and handle articles in immune cell biology, proteostasis, imaging and image analysis, plant cell biology, and stem cell biology and modelling.
Diversity of microtubule arrays in animal cells at a glance
In this Cell Science at a Glance article, Emma van Grinsven and Anna Akhmanova provide an overview of the diverse microtubule arrays present in differentiated animal cells and discuss how these arrays form and function.
