    Objective pupillometry shows that perceptual styles covary with autistic-like personality traits

    Chiara Tortelli, Marco Turi ... Paola Binda
    Pupillometry tracks individual differences linked with autistic traits independently of illusion susceptibility and perceptual reports.

    Integrative frontal-parietal dynamics supporting cognitive control

    Derek Evan Nee
    Analysis of human fMRI data reveal that intermediary areas within the fronto-parietal control network (FPCN) are critical for integrating control processing, cognitive ability, and amenability to neuromodulation.

    Intact synapse structure and function after combined knockout of PTPδ, PTPσ, and LAR

    Javier Emperador-Melero, Giovanni de Nola, Pascal S Kaeser
    Leukocyte common antigen-related receptor protein tyrosine phosphatases (LAR-RPTPs) are precisely localized to synaptic appositions, but do not control the assembly and function of the presynaptic nerve terminal.

    Anatomy and activity patterns in a multifunctional motor neuron and its surrounding circuits

    Mária Ashaber, Yusuke Tomina ... Daniel A Wagenaar
    Voltage-dye imaging followed by serial blockface electron microscopy of the same ganglion reveals structure–function relationships of leech motor behaviors.

    Sub-minute prediction of brain temperature based on sleep–wake state in the mouse

    Yaniv Sela, Marieke MB Hoekstra, Paul Franken
    The sleep–wake state sequence explains almost all of the variance in brain temperature in the mouse, and its detailed dynamics can be accurately predicted only using sleep–wake information.

    Identifying molecular features that are associated with biological function of intrinsically disordered protein regions

    Taraneh Zarin, Bob Strome ... Alan M Moses
    A statistical model systematically associates functions of intrinsically disordered regions with sequence-distributed molecular features such as charge, residue composition, or repeat content.
    1. Neuroscience

    The temporal and spectral characteristics of expectations and prediction errors in pain and thermoception

    Andreas Strube, Michael Rose ... Christian Büchel
    Key variables required for pain perception in the context of a predictive coding model are correlated with distinct oscillatory profiles.

    Antagonism of PP2A is an independent and conserved function of HIV-1 Vif and causes cell cycle arrest

    Sara Marelli, James C Williamson ... Nicholas J Matheson
    Systematic screen of HIV-1 Vif mutants identifies synthetic and naturally occurring amino acid polymorphisms separating PPP2R5 and APOBEC3 family protein depletion and uncovers the mechanism of Vif-dependent cell cycle arrest.

    Surprising phenotypic diversity of cancer-associated mutations of Gly 34 in the histone H3 tail

    Brandon R Lowe, Rajesh K Yadav ... Janet F Partridge
    H3-G34R, V, and W oncohistonesin fission yeast cause differential K36 modification, DNA damage sensitivity and genome stability outcomes, highlighting the need for a thorough evaluation of distinct mutations.

    Tripartite suppression of fission yeast TORC1 signaling by the GATOR1-Sea3 complex, the TSC complex, and Gcn2 kinase

    Tomoyuki Fukuda, Fajar Sofyantoro ... Kazuhiro Shiozaki
    Sea3, a presumed subunit of the GATOR2 complex in fission yeast, is required for the GATOR1 function that attenuates TORC1 in parallel with the TSC complex and Gcn2 kinase.
