    A drug repurposing approach reveals targetable epigenetic pathways in Plasmodium vivax hypnozoites

    Steven P Maher, Malina A Bakowski ... Dennis E Kyle
    Drug repurposing screens reveal several epigenetic inhibitors as active against P. vivax hypnozoites demonstrating that epigenetic pathways play a central role in hypnozoite quiescence.

    Representation of male features in the female mouse accessory olfactory bulb, and their stability during the estrus cycle

    Oksana Cohen, Yoram Ben-Shaul
    Electrophysiological recordings in female mice show that response profiles of accessory olfactory bulb neurons remain stable during the course of the estrus cycle.

    Nuclear and cytosolic J-domain proteins provide synergistic control of Hsf1 at distinct phases of the heat shock response

    Carmen Ruger-Herreros, Lucia Svoboda ... Bernd Bukau
    The nuclear J-domain protein Apj1 controls the shut-off phase of the yeast heat shock response by displacing DNA-bound heat shock transcription factor Hsf1.

    Spatial frequency adaptation modulates population receptive field sizes

    Ecem Altan, Catherine A Morgan ... D Samuel Schwarzkopf
    Modulations in population receptive field size induced by spatial frequency adaptation reveal a direct link between spatial tuning in the visual cortex and spatial frequency selectivity of neuronal populations.

    Segment-specific axon guidance by Wnt/Fz signaling diversifies motor commands in Drosophila larvae

    Suguru Takagi, Shiina Takano ... Akinao Nose
    Rewiring the command neurons in the tactile circuit is sufficient to change the behavioral strategy of a whole animal, implying a 'plug-and-play' flexibility in sensorimotor circuits.

    The molecular infrastructure of glutamatergic synapses in the mammalian forebrain

    Julia Peukes, Charlie Lovatt ... René AW Frank
    CryoCLEM-guided cryoET of Psd95-GFP knockin mouse tissue and ultra-fresh synaptonerosomes indicate that the postsynaptic density is a not a conserved feature of glutamatergic synapses in the mouse brain.
