    The entorhinal cortex modulates trace fear memory formation and neuroplasticity in the mouse lateral amygdala via cholecystokinin

    Hemin Feng, Junfeng Su ... Jufang He
    Cholecystokinin-positive neural projection from entorhinal cortex to lateral amygdala modulates the long-term potentiation of auditory-evoked potential in lateral amygdala and underlies the formation of trace fear memory.

    Early prediction of clinical response to checkpoint inhibitor therapy in human solid tumors through mathematical modeling

    Joseph D Butner, Geoffrey V Martin ... Vittorio Cristini
    A mechanistic mathematical model informed by standard‐of‐care imaging and pathology predicts tumor responses to immunotherapy a priori on a per-patient basis.

    A computational screen for alternative genetic codes in over 250,000 genomes

    Yekaterina Shulgina, Sean R Eddy
    Five previously unknown alternative genetic codes are found in a screen of bacterial and archaeal genomes by a new computational method called Codetta, lending new insights into the process of their evolution.

    The mesoscale organization of syntaxin 1A and SNAP25 is determined by SNARE–SNARE interactions

    Jasmin Mertins, Jérôme Finke ... Thorsten Lang
    SNARE–SNARE interactions that have previously only been proposed to participate in membrane fusion on the nanoscale also serve to organize SNARE domains on the mesoscale.

    Wings and halteres act as coupled dual oscillators in flies

    Tanvi Deora, Siddharth S Sane, Sanjay P Sane
    Flight system of flies is driven by wings and mechanosensory halteres that operate as independently driven but coupled oscillators, thereby imparting robustness against wing or thorax damage.

    Sumoylation of the human histone H4 tail inhibits p300-mediated transcription by RNA polymerase II in cellular extracts

    Calvin Jon A Leonen, Miho Shimada ... Champak Chatterjee
    Chemically sumoylated histone H4 shows negative biochemical crosstalk with gene-activating histone acetylation and methylation marks, and directly inhibits RNA polymerase II-mediated gene transcription.

    A parameter-free statistical test for neuronal responsiveness

    Jorrit S Montijn, Koen Seignette ... J Alexander Heimel
    A simple and robust statistical test for neuronal stimulus response, that outperforms PSTH-based approaches such as t-tests and ANOVAs.

    Rapid and sensitive detection of SARS-CoV-2 infection using quantitative peptide enrichment LC-MS analysis

    Andreas Hober, Khue Hua Tran-Minh ... Fredrik Edfors
    Immuno-affinity enrichment combined with liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry can be used to detect viral proteins to confirm the presence of SARS-CoV-2 in clinical samples.

    Whole-brain connectivity atlas of glutamatergic and GABAergic neurons in the mouse dorsal and median raphe nuclei

    Zhengchao Xu, Zhao Feng ... Anan Li
    Whole-brain quantitative input-output circuits of glutamatergic and GABAergic neurons in the mouse dorsal and median raphe nuclei were mapped using viral tracing and high-resolution optical imaging.

    A conserved neuropeptide system links head and body motor circuits to enable adaptive behavior

    Shankar Ramachandran, Navonil Banerjee ... Michael M Francis
    Investigation of neuromodulatory control of ethologically conserved area-restricted food search behavior shows that NLP-12 stimulation of the head motor circuit promotes food searching through the previously uncharacterized CKR-1 GPCR.
