    Physiological TLR4 regulation in human fetal membranes as an explicative mechanism of a pathological preterm case

    Corinne Belville, Flora Ponelle-Chachuat ... Loïc Blanchon
    Methylomic and trancriptomic analyses demonstrate the regulation of the toll-like receptor 4 inflammatory gene expression, an essential actor of the fetal membrane weakening at the end of pregnancy.

    α-/γ-Taxilin are required for centriolar subdistal appendage assembly and microtubule organization

    Dandan Ma, Fulin Wang ... Jianguo Chen
    Super-resolution microscopy, biochemical and functional analyses reveal how α-taxilin and γ-taxilin are assembled at the subdistal appendages and their roles in microtubule organization.

    The transcriptional corepressor CTBP-1 acts with the SOX family transcription factor EGL-13 to maintain AIA interneuron cell identity in Caenorhabditis elegans

    Josh Saul, Takashi Hirose, H Robert Horvitz
    The maintenance of diverse cell identities might be coordinated through the interaction between widely acting transcriptional corepressors and cell-specific transcription factors to repress undesired gene expression in a cell-type-specific manner.

    Widespread discrepancy in Nnt genotypes and genetic backgrounds complicates granzyme A and other knockout mouse studies

    Daniel J Rawle, Thuy T Le ... Andreas Suhrbier
    Granzyme A-/- mice, which have contributed to a body of research into this enzyme, emerge to have a mixed C57BL/6J-C57BL/6N genetic background, compromising our understanding of granzyme A and highlighting a widespread problem for knockout mouse studies generally.

    Molecular determinants of phase separation for Drosophila DNA replication licensing factors

    Matthew W Parker, Jonchee A Kao ... Michael R Botchan
    The intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) of metazoan DNA replication licensing factors phase separate through synergistic electrostatic DNA-IDR and hydrophobic inter-IDR interactions.

    Human interictal epileptiform discharges are bidirectional traveling waves echoing ictal discharges

    Elliot H Smith, Jyun-you Liou ... John D Rolston
    Large bursts of brain activity in patients with epilepsy are geometrically related to seizure propagation.

    Structural basis of Plasmodium vivax inhibition by antibodies binding to the circumsporozoite protein repeats

    Iga Kucharska, Lamia Hossain ... Jean-Philippe Julien
    Biophysical and structural studies reveal how two inhibitory antibodies targeting CSP on malaria-causing Plasmodium vivax parasites lock its intrinsically flexible repeat into predominant coiled conformations, contributing molecular details of Pv inhibition by antibodies to enable structure-based engineering of PvCSP-based vaccines.
