    High-resolution mapping demonstrates inhibition of DNA excision repair by transcription factors

    Mingrui Duan, Smitha Sivapragasam ... Peng Mao
    Transcription factor proteins play an important role in modulating base damage formation and excision repair at the binding sites in the genome.

    Stage-specific control of oligodendrocyte survival and morphogenesis by TDP-43

    Dongeun Heo, Jonathan P Ling ... Dwight E Bergles
    Loss of the RNA-binding protein TDP-43 impairs the survival of oligodendrocyte progenitors and reactivates growth of mature oligodendrocytes, resulting in inappropriate wrapping of neuronal somata and blood vessels.

    GFPT2/GFAT2 and AMDHD2 act in tandem to control the hexosamine pathway

    Virginia Kroef, Sabine Ruegenberg ... Martin Sebastian Denzel
    AMDHD2 restricts the activity of the essential hexosamine pathway in mouse embryonic stem cells where GFPT2/GFAT2 instead of the common paralog GFPT1/GFAT1 controls metabolite entry.

    Structures of PKA–phospholamban complexes reveal a mechanism of familial dilated cardiomyopathy

    Juan Qin, Jingfeng Zhang ... Zhiguang Yuchi
    Structures of PKA in complex with wild type and mutant phospholamban show a mechanism underlying familial dilated cardiomyopathy.

    Dedicated chaperones coordinate co-translational regulation of ribosomal protein production with ribosome assembly to preserve proteostasis

    Benjamin Pillet, Alfonso Méndez-Godoy ... Dieter Kressler
    A novel co-translational mechanism continuously adjusts the expression levels of ribosomal proteins Rpl3 and Rpl4 to their consumption during ribosome synthesis by regulating the abundance of their mRNAs.

    Inference of the SARS-CoV-2 generation time using UK household data

    William S Hart, Sam Abbott ... Robin N Thompson
    Updated estimates of the generation time of SARS-CoV-2 infections indicate that the generation time has become shorter.

    Potential role of KRAB-ZFP binding and transcriptional states on DNA methylation of retroelements in human male germ cells

    Kei Fukuda, Yoshinori Makino ... Yoichi Shinkai
    Bioinformatics analyses reveal that the Krüppel-associated box domain zinc finger proteins are associated with DNA methylation of retroelements in human primordial germ cells which highlight potential molecular mechanisms for the regulation of retroelements in human male germ cells.

    First-order visual interneurons distribute distinct contrast and luminance information across ON and OFF pathways to achieve stable behavior

    Madhura D Ketkar, Burak Gür ... Marion Silies
    First-order interneurons in the Drosophila visual system are not ON or OFF pathway-specific inputs, but serve as distinct computational units that distribute different kinds of luminance and contrast information across pathways to achieve stable behavioral responses to visual stimuli.

    Suppression weakens unwanted memories via a sustained reduction of neural reactivation

    Ann-Kristin Meyer, Roland G Benoit
    Intentionally preventing the retrieval of an unwanted memory hinders future attempts to reactivate the memory’s neural representation and causes a reduction in the vividness with which it can be recalled.

    Steroid hormone signaling activates thermal nociception during Drosophila peripheral nervous system development

    Jacob S Jaszczak, Laura DeVault ... Yuh Nung Jan
    Ecdysone-mediated repression of the TMEM16 channel subdued initiates a sensory switch in peripheral nociceptors during Drosophila larval development, increasing thermal nociceptive behavior and reducing responsiveness to ultraviolet light.
