    Septin 7 interacts with Numb to preserve sarcomere structural organization and muscle contractile function

    Rita De Gasperi, Laszlo Csernoch ... Christopher P Cardozo
    Genetic reduction of Numb or Numb/Nubl is linked to deterioration of the Septin cytoskeleton and suggests cytoskeletal abnormalities are the consequences of and contribute to age-related changes in skeletal muscle.

    The substrate-binding domains of the osmoregulatory ABC importer OpuA transiently interact

    Marco van den Noort, Panagiotis Drougkas ... Bert Poolman
    Transient and weak interactions between the substrate-binding proteins of the ATP-binding cassette transporter OpuA can influence the transport efficiency.

    Staphylococcus aureus FtsZ and PBP4 bind to the conformationally dynamic N-terminal domain of GpsB

    Michael D Sacco, Lauren R Hammond ... Yu Chen
    The N-terminal domain of Staphylococcus aureus GpsB, a scaffolding protein, forms an atypical asymmetric dimer and binds to the C-termini of FtsZ and PBP4, influencing the localization and regulation of both the Z-ring and cell wall synthesis.

    BMP signaling maintains auricular chondrocyte identity and prevents microtia development by inhibiting protein kinase A

    Ruichen Yang, Hongshang Chu ... Baojie Li
    Uncovering a new function of BMP signaling and enhancing our comprehension of the pathogenesis of microtia.

    Experimental evolution for the recovery of growth loss due to genome reduction

    Kenya Hitomi, Yoichiro Ishii, Bei-Wen Ying
    Diversified genetic and transcriptional changes in parallel evolved Escherichia coli populations for improved growth revealed that the evolution complementing genome reduction was like all roads leading to Rome.

    Fungal–bacteria interactions provide shelter for bacteria in Caesarean section scar diverticulum

    Peigen Chen, Haicheng Chen ... Xing Yang
    Local abnormal fungi in Caesarean section scar diverticulum can affect the abundance of bacteria through specific metabolites, thereby destroying the stability of bacteria and the entire microbial community.

    Mono-methylated histones control PARP-1 in chromatin and transcription

    Gbolahan Bamgbose, Guillaume Bordet ... Alexei Tulin
    Genome-wide PARP-1 binding analysis advances the understanding of molecular mechanisms governing gene regulation in response to developmental cues and environmental stressors.

    Associations of combined phenotypic aging and genetic risk with incident cancer: A prospective cohort study

    Lijun Bian, Zhimin Ma ... Guangfu Jin
    Older PhenoAge was consistently related to an increased risk of incident cancer with adjustment for chronological age and the aging process could be retarded by adherence to a healthy lifestyle.

    Aberrant cortical activity, functional connectivity, and neural assembly architecture after photothrombotic stroke in mice

    Mischa Vance Bandet, Ian Robert Winship
    Longitudinal calcium imaging in awake mice after stroke suggests impairments in neuronal activity, functional connectivity, and neural assembly architecture is transient and limited to cortex immediately adjacent to the stroke.

    Synthetic analysis of trophic diversity and evolution in Enantiornithes with new insights from Bohaiornithidae

    Case Vincent Miller, Jen A Bright ... Michael Pittman
    Enantiornithine birds reached similar dietary diversity to modern birds in a similar amount of time many millions of years earlier, but how exactly they did that requires further research.
