    Srs2 binding to proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and its sumoylation contribute to replication protein A (RPA) antagonism during the DNA damage response

    Jiayi Fan, Nalini Dhingra ... Xiaolan Zhao
    Srs2 binding to PCNA and subsequent Mec1-dependent sumoylation regulate RPA-mediated checkpoint signaling.

    Interleukin-4 induces CD11c+ microglia leading to amelioration of neuropathic pain in mice

    Keita Kohno, Ryoji Shirasaka ... Makoto Tsuda
    Increasing CD11c+ microglial subsets in the spinal dorsal horn by intrathecal treatment of interleukin-4 alleviate pain hypersensitivity caused by nerve injury.

    Meteorins regulate the formation of the left-right organizer and the establishment of vertebrate body asymmetry

    Fanny Eggeler, Jonathan Boulanger-Weill ... Filippo Del Bene
    Genetic analyses in zebrafish reveal a new role for the Meteorin protein family in the left-right asymmetry patterning during embryonic vertebrate development.

    Loss of olfaction reduces caterpillar performance and increases susceptibility to a natural enemy

    Qi Wang, Yufei Jia ... Alexander Haverkamp
    The sense of smell is crucial for insect larvae not only to find a suitable food source but also for finding safe spaces which are free of their natural enemies.

    Separable dorsal raphe dopamine projections mimic the facets of a loneliness-like state

    Christopher R Lee, Gillian A Matthews ... Kay M Tye
    Optogenetic manipulations and neural circuit interrogation reveal that dorsal raphe dopamine circuits can emulate different facets of a loneliness-like state, including prosociality, aversion, and vigilance.

    Conserved and unique features of terminal telomeric sequences in ALT-positive cancer cells

    Benura Azeroglu, Wei Wu ... Eros Lazzerini-Denchi
    Abundant single-stranded telomeric DNA distinguishes alternative lengthening of telomeres-positive cells and represents a potential biomarker and therapeutic vulnerability.

    Trophic eggs affect caste determination in the ant Pogonomyrmex rugosus

    Eléonore Genzoni, Tanja Schwander, Laurent Keller
    Experiments manipulations show that trophic eggs can suppress queen development and therefore regulate caste determination in ants.

    Elevated ubiquitin phosphorylation by PINK1 contributes to proteasomal impairment and promotes neurodegeneration

    Cong Chen, Tong-Yao Gao ... Wei-Ping Zhang
    Elevated ubiquitin phosphorylation disrupts proteasomal function, creating a self-amplifying cycle that drives progressive protein aggregation and neuronal injury across multiple neurodegenerative conditions.

    Effects of parental care on skin microbial community composition in poison frogs

    Marie-Therese Fischer, Katherine S Xue ... Lauren A O'Connell
    Direct skin contact during parental care in poison frogs transmits host-adapted microbes to tadpoles, where some bacterial taxa may persist on the skin through early development.

    PA28γ promotes the malignant progression of tumor by elevating mitochondrial function via C1QBP

    Jiongke Wang, Yujie Shi ... Qianming Chen
    The promotion of C1QBP accumulation by PA28γ leads to the malignant progression of tumor by affecting mitochondrial function, which could be a launch pad for therapeutic intervention of tumor development.
