Experiments and mathematical modelling show cell fate in Dictyostelium discoideum partly depends on cell-cycle phase, but also on stochastic gene-expression variability which enhances robustness of developmental responses to cell-cycle perturbation.

The glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored receptors in Trypanosoma brucei are not confined to the flagellar pocket but instead localise across the whole cell surface, reshaping our understanding of host immune evasion and nutrient uptake.

A screen using in vitro-selected synthetic nanobodies identified inhibitors of SMC protein function in bacterial cells, revealing a coiled coil region as a vital component of the chromosome-folding machinery.

Neuropeptides sNPF and RYamide promote blood feeding in Anopheles stephensi, a major malarial vector in the Indian subcontinent and West Africa.
