Highlights

We liked the idea of having an open 'conversation' with the reviewers during the process, and having the chance to polish the manuscript by following the editors and reviewers’ recommendations without the threat of rejection.

    1. Microbiology and Infectious Disease

    The targeted cytosolic degradation of class I histone deacetylases is essential for efficient alphaherpesvirus replication

    Shengli-Li Ming, Meng-Hua Du ... Bei-Bei Chu
    Alphaherpesviruses hijack host epigenetic regulation by promoting HDAC1/2 nuclear export and degradation to activate the DNA damage response, revealing new antiviral therapeutic targets.

    How attention simplifies mental representations for planning

    Jason da Silva Castanheira, Christina Chang He ... Stephen M Fleming
    Spatial attention controls the information people become aware of and, in turn, incorporate into simplified perceptual representations for use in multi-step planning.
    1. Neuroscience

    Theta beta ratio in attention deficit hyperactivity disorder using a multiverse analysis

    Dawid Strzelczyk, Andrea Vetsch, Nicolas Langer
    Individual alpha peak frequency and aperiodic neural activity shape theta-beta ratio estimates, limiting their value as an ADHD biomarker.

    The microtubule-binding protein EML3 is required for mammalian embryonic growth and cerebral cortical development, and Eml3 null mice are a model of cobblestone brain malformation

    Isabelle Carrier, Eduardo Diez ... Roderick McInnes
    Absence of EML3 in mice leads to delayed embryonic development, small size, perinatal lethality, and the over-migration of neuroblasts due to a defective pial basement membrane.

    Inferring variant-specific effective reproduction numbers from combined case and sequencing data

    Marlin D Figgins, Trevor Bedford
    Integrating case counts with genomic sequences quantifies real-time transmission advantages of viral variants.
    1. Neuroscience

    Kinematic signatures in reaching movements during spaceflight provide evidence that humans underestimate body mass in microgravity

    Zhaoran Zhang, Yu Tian ... Kunlin Wei
    Model-based kinematic analyses link the movement slowing in spaceflight to body mass underestimation.
