    Early stage NSCLS patients’ prognostic prediction with multi-information using transformer and graph neural network model

    Jie Lian, Jiajun Deng ... Varut Vardhanabhuti
    It provides evidence for the feasibility of using combined graph convolutional neural network and transformers’ based systems with patient demographics, and CT-derived imaging features as inputs into the transformer model for survival prediction in early stage lung cancer patients.

    The Drosophila ZAD zinc finger protein Kipferl guides Rhino to piRNA clusters

    Lisa Baumgartner, Dominik Handler ... Julius Brennecke
    Kipferl, a ZAD zinc finger protein from Drosophila, determines the chromatin binding specificity of the heterochromatin protein variant Rhino, defining piRNA clusters and preventing Rhino sequestration by selfish Satellite repeats.

    Experimental evidence that group size generates divergent benefits of cooperative breeding for male and female ostriches

    Julian Melgar, Mads F Schou ... Charlie K Cornwallis
    Experimental manipulations of social groups of ostriches show that the benefits of cooperative parental care for females, and the costs of sexual competition for males, lead to sex differences in optimal group sizes.

    Mountain gorillas maintain strong affiliative biases for maternal siblings despite high male reproductive skew and extensive exposure to paternal kin

    Nicholas M Grebe, Jean Paul Hirwa ... Stacy Rosenbaum
    Mountain gorillas, who live in close-knit social groups with siblings and non-siblings of both sexes throughout their lives, show distinct behavioral biases towards maternal versus paternal kin.

    RNA-binding protein Elavl1/HuR is required for maintenance of cranial neural crest specification

    Erica J Hutchins, Shashank Gandhi ... Marianne E Bronner
    The RNA-binding protein Elavl1 directly binds to and stabilizes a single gene product—Draxin mRNA—to prevent premature delamination and maintain specification in cranial neural crest.

    S6K1 phosphorylates Cdk1 and MSH6 to regulate DNA repair

    Adi Amar-Schwartz, Vered Ben Hur ... Rotem Karni
    Unbiased proteomics and molecular analysis revealed a new role for S6K1 in regulating DNA repair through the orchestrated phosphorylation of CDK1 and MSH6. The findings may explain why RPS6KB1 gene amplification contributed to breast cancer drug resistance.

    A novel lineage of the Capra genus discovered in the Taurus Mountains of Turkey using ancient genomics

    Kevin G Daly, Benjamin S Arbuckle ... Daniel G Bradley
    A relative of the tur, wild goat species now endemic to the Caucasus, lived at least 14,000 years ago in southern Turkey.

    Sociosexual behavior requires both activating and repressive roles of Tfap2e/AP-2ε in vomeronasal sensory neurons

    Jennifer M Lin, Tyler A Mitchell ... Paolo Emanuele Forni
    In vivo genetic experiments show that aberrant expression of a transcription factor can compromise the functionality of neurons which is important to better understand the potential mechanisms underlying neuropathologies.

    Learning of probabilistic punishment as a model of anxiety produces changes in action but not punisher encoding in the dmPFC and VTA

    David S Jacobs, Madeleine C Allen ... Bita Moghaddam
    A novel approach to studying anxiety reveals that learned anxiety and diazepam treatment have unique roles on prefrontal cortex and ventral tegmental area activity.

    DNA methylome combined with chromosome cluster-oriented analysis provides an early signature for cutaneous melanoma aggressiveness

    Arnaud Carrier, Cécile Desjobert ... Paola B Arimondo
    An original molecular multi-step approach integrating DNA methylome and chromosome-cluster localization cross-analysis identified a DNA methylation signature of patient outcome supporting that the core DNA methylation for a given trait is independent of the physiological context under which it arises.
