Computational modelling predicts spatial segregation of different types of nuclear transport receptors in assemblies of nuclear pore proteins, lending support to the idea of separate transport pathways in the nuclear pore complex as a way to enhance transport efficiency.
Effective navigation of odor plumes in the wild requires that animals sense multiple temporal aspects of odor signals, which are encoded naturally by neurons in the fly olfactory circuit.

DunedinPACE is a novel DNA methylation biomarker of the pace of biological aging for intervention trials and natural experiment studies investigating how the rate of aging may be changed by behavioral or drug therapy, or by environmental modification.
Genetic analysis and biochemical approaches reveal that chemorefractory properties are reversed by inhibiting mucin secretion, thus providing a means to curb the growth and spread of colorectal cancer.

The intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) of metazoan DNA replication licensing factors phase separate through synergistic electrostatic DNA-IDR and hydrophobic inter-IDR interactions.
Pupil diameter cannot accurately predict spiking activity in the locus coeruleus on a moment-by-moment basis, and exhibited large fluctuations to identical stimulation in the LC.
The metal-dependent protein phosphatase Nilkantha, a Drosophila PPM1A/B homolog, dephosphorylates Acinus thereby restraining starvation-independent autophagy.
The copy-and-shift mechanism modelled in the insect central complex facilitates multimodal navigation, providing a general computation model explaining flexible navigation behaviours.
