    Studying the biology of cytotoxic T lymphocytes in vivo with a fluorescent granzyme B-mTFP knock-in mouse

    Praneeth Chitirala, Hsin-Fang Chang ... Jens Rettig
    A new knock-in mouse endogenously labels cytotoxic granules and can be used with all modern super-resolution imaging techniques to study T cell function in vitro and in vivo.

    Inhibition of post-termination ribosome recycling at premature termination codons in UPF1 ATPase mutants

    Lucas D Serdar, DaJuan L Whiteside ... Kristian E Baker
    Nucleotide resolution mapping of ribosome-bound RNA decay fragments in yeast cells expressing ATPase-deficient UPF1 reveals 3' UTR bound ribosomes and a role for UPF1 in post-termination ribosome recycling.

    Controlling protein function by fine-tuning conformational flexibility

    Sonja Schmid, Thorsten Hugel
    Specific and non-specific conformational confinement, via point mutation or cochaperone interaction or macro-molecular crowding, stimulates protein function in Hsp90 by reducing non-productive conformational flexibility.

    Clustered gamma-protocadherins regulate cortical interneuron programmed cell death

    Walter R Mancia Leon, Julien Spatazza ... Arturo Alvarez-Buylla
    Pcdhg determine survival of the GABAergic cortical interneuron population that is necessary to establish and maintain proper excitatory to inhibitory balance in the cerebral cortex.

    Profiling of myristoylation in Toxoplasma gondii reveals an N-myristoylated protein important for host cell penetration

    Malgorzata Broncel, Caia Dominicus ... Moritz Treeck
    Myristoylation of a secreted protein, identified in a global myristoylation analysis of the eukaryotic parasite Toxoplasma gondii, is important for host cell invasion.

    A quantitative inventory of yeast P body proteins reveals principles of composition and specificity

    Wenmin Xing, Denise Muhlrad ... Michael K Rosen
    Quantitative analyses of yeast P bodies reveals a small number of highly concentrated proteins and many weakly concentrated proteins, suggesting that the compartments are compositionally simpler than previously thought.

    A taxonomy of seizure dynamotypes

    Maria Luisa Saggio, Dakota Crisp ... William C Stacey
    Taxonomy of seizure dynamics (TSD) provides a rigorous method for classifying and quantifying seizures and a principled framework for understanding seizure initiation and propagation.

    New insights into the mechanism of dynein motor regulation by lissencephaly-1

    Steven M Markus, Matthew G Marzo, Richard J McKenney
    The role of LIS1 in dynein-mediated transport in various biological contexts is reviewed with a focus on recent studies that revealed a new mechanism by which LIS1 functions.

    Phylogenetic variation in cortical layer II immature neuron reservoir of mammals

    Chiara La Rosa, Francesca Cavallo ... Luca Bonfanti
    The higher amount of cortical immature neurons in brains with expanded neocortices may represent a reservoir of young cells for mammals with reduced neurogenesis.
