    Peptidoglycan-tethered and free forms of the Braun lipoprotein are in dynamic equilibrium in Escherichia coli

    Yucheng Liang, Jean-Emmanuel Hugonnet ... Michel Arthur
    The Braun lipoprotein is tethered to peptidoglycan independently from the insertion of newly-synthesized peptidoglycan subunits into the expanding cell wall generating a dynamic equilibrium between free and bound protein forms.

    Formation of multinucleated osteoclasts depends on an oxidized species of cell surface-associated La protein

    Evgenia Leikina, Jarred M Whitlock ... Leonid Chernomordik
    Molecular and biochemical approaches in primary human cells illustrate how a nuclear RNA-binding protein is shifted to the surface of osteoclasts – setting their size and biological activity.

    The zinc-finger transcription factor Sfp1 imprints specific classes of mRNAs and links their synthesis to cytoplasmic decay

    Moran Kelbert, Antonio Jordán-Pla ... Mordechai Choder
    Class-specific transcription factor links transcription backtracking with cytoplasmic mRNA decay via co-transcriptional interaction with nascent transcripts.

    I-Spin live, an open-source software based on blind-source separation for real-time decoding of motor unit activity in humans

    Julien Rossato, François Hug ... Simon Avrillon
    I-Spin enables researchers to decode motor unit firings from surface and intramuscular electromyographic signals in real time.
    1. Evolutionary Biology

    Multiple origins of dorsal ecdysial sutures in trilobites and their relatives

    Kun-sheng Du, Jin Guo ... Ai-lin Chen
    New morphological information on the Cambrian artiopodan Acanthomeridion, including CT data, demonstrate that dorsal ecdysial sutures likely evolved multiple times within this group.
    1. Chromosomes and Gene Expression

    An anciently diverged family of RNA binding proteins maintain correct splicing of a class of ultra-long exons through cryptic splice site repression

    Chileleko Siachisumo, Sara Luzzi ... David J Elliott
    A family of RNA binding proteins that diverged 200 million years ago have parallel roles in protecting the transcriptomic integrity of ultra-long exons within their respective cell types.

    Cardiac afferent signals can facilitate visual dominance in binocular rivalry

    John P Veillette, Fan Gao, Howard C Nusbaum
    Sensations arising from internal organs like the heart can affect how the brain decides between two mutually incompatible perceptions of the same visual stimulus.

    CCL28 modulates neutrophil responses during infection with mucosal pathogens

    Gregory T Walker, Araceli Perez-Lopez ... Manuela Raffatellu
    Chemokine CCL28 plays a key role in shaping neutrophil responses during intestinal Salmonella infection and lung Acinetobacter infection.
