    Structural insight into guanylyl cyclase receptor hijacking of the kinase–Hsp90 regulatory mechanism

    Nathanael A Caveney, Naotaka Tsutsumi, K Christopher Garcia
    Cryo-EM structures reveal GC-C associates with regulatory heat shock proteins similarly to bona fide protein kinases and this can guide the further development of mGC-targeted therapeutics.

    Structural and mechanistic insights into the MCM8/9 helicase complex

    Zhuangfeng Weng, Jiefu Zheng ... Yingfang Liu
    The hexametric structures of MCM8/9, revealed through cryo-electron microscopy single particle analysis, provide a foundational understanding of its helicase activity and offer novel insights into its mechanistic role.

    Continuous, long-term crawling behavior characterized by a robotic transport system

    James Yu, Stephanie Dancausse ... Mason Klein
    Drosophila larvae manipulated by an automated system can be observed for 30+ hr, and new analysis methods of long-timescale trajectories reveal behavioral features previously inaccessible, such as a bimodal distribution of thermal navigation efficiency in individual animals.

    New hypotheses of cell type diversity and novelty from orthology-driven comparative single cell and nuclei transcriptomics in echinoderms

    Anne Meyer, Carolyn Ku ... Veronica Hinman
    Understanding novel cell types and their evolutionary history is re-evaluated using single nuclei transcriptomic approaches and their inferred underlying gene regulatory networks.

    Spontaneous body wall contractions stabilize the fluid microenvironment that shapes host–microbe associations

    Janna C Nawroth, Christoph Giez ... Thomas CG Bosch
    Spontaneous contractions allow shedding of the fluid boundary layer and thereby stabilize microbiota.

    Vitamin D induces SIRT1 activation through K610 deacetylation in colon cancer

    José Manuel García-Martínez, Ana Chocarro-Calvo ... Custodia García-Jiménez
    Vitamin D bound to its receptor interacts with SIRT1 to induce its auto deacetylation and catalytic activity, which drives anti-proliferative effects in colorrectal cancer and this may lead to new therapeutic approaches for colorrectal and perhaps other cancers.

    Control of telomere length in yeast by SUMOylated PCNA and the Elg1 PCNA unloader

    Pragyan Singh, Inbal Gazy, Martin Kupiec
    SUMOylated PCNA and the Elg1 PCNA unloader interact with the CST complex to coordinate DNA replication and telomere length maintenance.

    Homeodomain-interacting protein kinase maintains neuronal homeostasis during normal Caenorhabditis elegans aging and systemically regulates longevity from serotonergic and GABAergic neurons

    Maria I Lazaro-Pena, Adam B Cornwell ... Andrew V Samuelson
    The transcriptional cofactor HPK-1 (homeodomain-interacting protein kinase) functions as a key regulator of multiple proteostatic stress responses, each originating from discrete neuronal subtypes within the Caenorhabditis elegans nervous system to preserve neuronal health and maintain organismal proteostasis during normal aging.

    Uncovering circuit mechanisms of current sinks and sources with biophysical simulations of primary visual cortex

    Atle E Rimehaug, Alexander J Stasik ... Anton Arkhipov
    A biophysically detailed model of mouse primary visual cortex reproduces, in a quantitative manner, experimentally recorded spikes and local field potentials, and suggests mechanisms that form current sinks and sources in vivo.
