    Variation in the basal immune state and implications for disease

    Aisha Souquette, Paul G Thomas
    An integrative conceptual and mathematical framework of immune variation that includes unique basal profiles associated with differential susceptibility to disease, distinct acute immune signatures associated with disease severity, and how different determinants can lead to individual pathways of illness outcome.

    Association of genetic variation in COL11A1 with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis

    Hao Yu, Anas M Khanshour ... Carol A Wise
    Variation in type XI collagen alters estrogen-dependent signaling in the extracellular matrix and is identified as a genetic risk factor for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis, a common childhood deformity.

    A reservoir of timescales emerges in recurrent circuits with heterogeneous neural assemblies

    Merav Stern, Nicolae Istrate, Luca Mazzucato
    The large range of timescales empirically observed in neural circuits can be naturally explained when neural assemblies of heterogeneous size are recurrently coupled, empowering the neural circuits to efficiently process complex time-varying input signals.

    Exploring the K+ binding site and its coupling to transport in the neurotransmitter:sodium symporter LeuT

    Solveig G Schmidt, Andreas Nygaard ... Claus J Loland
    Potassium presumably binds to the Na1 site in LeuT, playing a role in inwardly rectifying the transport of substrates.

    Kidins220 regulates the development of B cells bearing the λ light chain

    Anna-Maria Schaffer, Gina Jasmin Fiala ... Susana Minguet
    The scaffold protein Kidins220 regulates the development of λLC B cells by supporting B cell precursor survival and optimizing pre‑BCR and BCR signaling.
    1. Neuroscience

    A system of feed-forward cerebellar circuits that extend and diversify sensory signaling

    Harsh N Hariani, A Brynn Algstam ... Timothy S Balmer
    Unipolar brush cells subtypes, classified by their excitatory or inhibitory response to glutamate, form circuits with one another that may enhance the capacity of the cerebellum to transform input signals.

    New genetic tools for mushroom body output neurons in Drosophila

    Gerald M Rubin, Yoshinori Aso
    Improved cell-type-specific genetic drivers for the study of learning and memory and other complex behaviors in Drosophila are provided and validated.
    1. Neuroscience

    Involvement of superior colliculus in complex figure detection of mice

    J Leonie Cazemier, Robin Haak ... J Alexander Heimel
    Mouse superior colliculus is involved in figure detection based on differences in contrast and texture orientation and phase.

    Comparative interactome analysis of α-arrestin families in human and Drosophila

    Kyung-Tae Lee, Inez KA Pranoto ... Jin-Wu Nam
    Unveiling the high-confidence protein–protein interaction networks of human and fly α-arrestins provides insights into conserved and species-specific functional roles depending on their protein domains and motifs.

    A novel computational pipeline for var gene expression augments the discovery of changes in the Plasmodium falciparum transcriptome during transition from in vivo to short-term in vitro culture

    Clare Andradi-Brown, Jan Stephan Wichers-Misterek ... Anna Bachmann
    An enhanced bioinformatic pipeline to quantify Plasmodium falciparum core gene and polymorphic var gene expression revealed changes occurring during early culture adaptation of parasites from naturally infected individuals.
