    Feedback control of Wnt signaling based on ultrastable histidine cluster co-aggregation between Naked/NKD and Axin

    Melissa V Gammons, Miha Renko ... Mariann Bienz
    An unusual molecular mechanism has been revealed based on ultrastable histidine cluster co-aggregation underlying feedback control of an ancient cell communication pathway.

    Patient-specific genomics and cross-species functional analysis implicate LRP2 in hypoplastic left heart syndrome

    Jeanne L Theis, Georg Vogler ... Rolf Bodmer
    Hypoplastic left heart syndrome is reflected by reduced proliferative capacity of patient iPSC-derived cardiomyocytes and requires the activity of LRP2/APOB proteins, likely in conjunction with SHH and WNT signaling pathways.

    Training deep neural density estimators to identify mechanistic models of neural dynamics

    Pedro J Gonçalves, Jan-Matthis Lueckmann ... Jakob H Macke
    Deep neural networks can be trained to automatically find mechanistic models which quantitatively agree with experimental data, providing new opportunities for building and visualizing interpretable models of neural dynamics.

    A novel DNA primase-helicase pair encoded by SCCmec elements

    Aleksandra Bebel, Melissa A Walsh ... Phoebe A Rice
    SCCmec genomic islands encode a novel primase-helicase pair in which priming ability is conferred upon an A-family DNA polymerase domain by a novel protein cofactor.

    Collider bias and the apparent protective effect of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency on cerebral malaria

    James A Watson, Stije J Leopold ... Nicholas J White
    Selection bias, also known as collider bias, likely explains the apparent protective effect of G6PD deficiency against cerebral falciparum malaria.

    Light-regulated allosteric switch enables temporal and subcellular control of enzyme activity

    Mark Shaaya, Jordan Fauser ... Andrei V Karginov
    Light-sensitive allosteric switch module, a broadly applicable protein engineering method, is used for the regulation of protein activity with tight temporal control and spatial precision.

    DMT alters cortical travelling waves

    Andrea Alamia, Christopher Timmermann ... Robin L Carhart-Harris
    Psychedelics induce a pattern of cortical activity very similar to the one observed during visual perception, despite participants had shut eyes.

    Cerebellar patients have intact feedback control that can be leveraged to improve reaching

    Amanda M Zimmet, Di Cao ... Noah J Cowan
    A control system model of cerebellar patients' movements provides insight into the cerebellum's role in reaching and informs a virtual reality intervention to improve patient reaches.

    Structural insights into mRNA reading frame regulation by tRNA modification and slippery codon–anticodon pairing

    Eric D Hoffer, Samuel Hong ... Christine M Dunham
    Chemical modifications near the tRNA anticodon and specific mRNA–tRNA pairs combine to control the ribosomal three-nucleotide mRNA reading frame, essential for the sequential addition of amino acids into polypeptide chains.

    A large accessory protein interactome is rewired across environments

    Zhimin Liu, Darach Miller ... Sasha F Levy
    A massively multiplexed multi-condition screen shows that protein interactomes are larger than previously thought and contain highly dynamic regions that reorganize to drive or respond to cellular changes.
