Nature Cell Biology, Published online: 28 April 2026; doi:10.1038/s41556-026-01941-9 Tang, Dai, Qing, Zhang and colleagues describe a role for N-glycosylation in the nucleus: N-glycans modify inner nuclear membrane proteins, and the modification is implicated in the maintenance of H3K9me3 heterochromatin and genome stability.
