    Characterization of caffeine response regulatory variants in vascular endothelial cells

    Carly Boye, Cynthia A Kalita ... Francesca Luca
    Caffeine modulates the genetic risk for cardiovascular disease through changes in target gene expression, likely due to regulation of transcription factor binding.

    A methylation-phosphorylation switch controls EZH2 stability and hematopoiesis

    Pengfei Guo, Rebecca C Lim ... Hui Zhang
    EZH2 is regulated by a K20-methylation dependent proteolysis and this proteolysis process is negatively controlled by AKT-mediated S21 phosphorylation to establish a methylation-phosphorylation switch to control the PRC2 activity and hematopoiesis.

    Host and viral determinants of airborne transmission of SARS-CoV-2 in the Syrian hamster

    Julia R Port, Dylan H Morris ... Vincent J Munster
    An experimental animal model provides further insights into the host and viral mechanisms underlying airborne transmission of SARS-CoV-2.

    Effect of an enhanced public health contact tracing intervention on the secondary transmission of SARS-CoV-2 in educational settings: The four-way decomposition analysis

    Olivera Djuric, Elisabetta Larosa ... The Reggio Emilia Covid-19 Working Group
    Prompt contact tracing (testing at the beginning instead of at the end of isolation period) of individuals with COVID-19 in the community reduces delays in contact tracing, increases identification of source of infection, and reduces transmission rates in educational settings.
    1. Evolutionary Biology

    Evolutionary rate covariation is a reliable predictor of co-functional interactions but not necessarily physical interactions

    Jordan Little, Maria Chikina, Nathan L Clark
    Physical interactions are a minor contributor to the correlations in evolutionary rate over time that are observed between co-functional proteins.

    A seven-sex species recognizes self and non-self mating-type via a novel protein complex

    Guanxiong Yan, Yang Ma ... Wei Miao
    A giant multifunctional protein complex mediates mating-type recognition through a non-ligand–receptor mechanism in a multisexual species.
