    Phylogenomics of white-eyes, a ‘great speciator’, reveals Indonesian archipelago as the center of lineage diversity

    Chyi Yin Gwee, Kritika M Garg ... Frank E Rheindt
    Contrary to the high absolute number of white-eyes in other parts of the world, the Indonesian archipelago is the center of phylogenetic diversity of this great speciator.

    Cortical encoding of acoustic and linguistic rhythms in spoken narratives

    Cheng Luo, Nai Ding
    In the processing of spoken narratives, bottom-up acoustic cues and top-down linguistic knowledge separately contribute to neural construction of linguistic units.

    SlitC-PlexinA1 mediates iterative inhibition for orderly passage of spinal commissural axons through the floor plate

    Hugo Ducuing, Thibault Gardette ... Valerie Castellani
    A combination of in vivo models and imaging techniques reveals the distribution of guidance cues and their mechanisms of action during commissural axon navigation of intermediate target.

    Developing a theoretical evolutionary framework to solve the mystery of parturition initiation

    Antonis Rokas, Sam Mesiano ... Louis Muglia
    This review considers the evolutionary processes and physiological mechanisms that maintain or end pregnancy in mammals to formulate general, testable theoretical models that provide insights into the biology of parturition.

    Transport mechanism of P4 ATPase phosphatidylcholine flippases

    Lin Bai, Qinglong You ... Huilin Li
    A detailed molecular mechanism on lipid flipping from outside leaflet to the inside leaflet of the eukaryotic plasma membrane bilayer.

    Torsin ATPases influence chromatin interaction of the Torsin regulator LAP1

    Naemi Luithle, Jelmi uit de Bos ... Ulrike Kutay
    The INM protein LAP1B, an activator of Torsin ATPases, is a chromatin-binding factor that erroneously persists on mitotic chromatin if Torsin functionality is compromised, inducing chromosome segregation defects and binucleation.

    Neuronal hyperexcitability is a DLK-dependent trigger of herpes simplex virus reactivation that can be induced by IL-1

    Sean R Cuddy, Austin R Schinlever ... Anna R Cliffe
    Herpes simplex virus reactivates from a latent infection when neurons become hyperexcitable in response to an inflammatory cytokine known to be released during fever and stress.

    Functionally specialized human CD4+ T-cell subsets express physicochemically distinct TCRs

    Sofya A Kasatskaya, Kristin Ladell ... Dmitriy M Chudakov
    Functional subsets of helper CD4+ T cells carry TCR repertoires with distinct features that are reproducible across donors and are partially acquired at the level of thymic selection.

    Effects of visual inputs on neural dynamics for coding of location and running speed in medial entorhinal cortex

    Holger Dannenberg, Hallie Lazaro ... Michael E Hasselmo
    Spatial accuracy of grid cell firing correlates with the slope of the local field potential theta frequency vs. running speed relationship and integrates velocity signals over past time.
