Whether aneuploid cells with diverse karyotypes have any properties in common has a been a subject of intense interest. A recent study by Terhorst et al. (1) reinvestigated the common aneuploidy gene expression (CAGE), disputing the conclusion of our recent work (2). In this short article, which has been submitted to PNAS as a Letter to the Editor, we explain our major concerns about Terhorst et al. and why we believe that our previous conclusion stands valid.

Nicholas R. Cozzarelli, An open access option for PNAS, PNAS Early Edition, May 27, 2004. Following up on PNAS's announcement of its open access option for authors (see earlier posting by Peter Suber,) Cozzarelli uses an editorial to explain the journal's approach to OA and their rationale.

This is a commentary on two recent experimental papers in PNAS by Vivek et al. and Illing et al. that convincingly address an issue at the junction of two fundamental questions in glass physics: the role of the dimensionality of space on the glass transition and the possible existence of long wavelength fluctuations in two-dimensional amorphous solids.
