    Specific proteolysis mediated by a p97-directed proteolysis-targeting chimera (p97-PROTAC)

    Constanza Salinas-Rebolledo, Javier Blesa ... Alejandro Rojas-Fernandez
    Synthetic adaptors combining camelid nanobodies with the UBX domain of the p97 adaptor FAF1 enable targeted substrate delivery to p97, establishing an E3 ubiquitin ligase-independent mechanism for selective protein degradation.

    Neisseria gonorrhoeae LIN codes provide a robust, multi-resolution lineage nomenclature

    Anastasia Unitt, Made A Krisna ... Odile B Harrison
    LIN code offers a reliable framework for classifying gonococcal population structure, enabling straightforward exploration of isolate relationships, from broad superlineage divisions to minute single allele differences.

    JAK-STAT pathway activation compromises nephrocyte function in a Drosophila high-fat diet model of chronic kidney disease

    Yunpo Zhao, Jianli Duan ... Zhe Han
    A conserved signaling axis linking Drosophila adipose tissue to nephrocyte function reveals how obesity can drive kidney dysfunction and points to new opportunities for therapeutic intervention.

    Hybridization breaks species barriers in long-term coevolution of a cyanobacterial population

    Gabriel Birzu, Harihara Subrahmaniam Muralidharan ... Devaki Bhaya
    Analysis of hundreds of single-cell genomes from Yellowstone National Park shows bacterial species are less cohesive than previously thought.

    Coordinated spinal locomotor network dynamics emerge from cell-type-specific connectivity patterns

    F David Wandler, Benjamin K Lemberger ... James M Murray
    A hierarchy of models guided by experimental results from zebrafish shows that coordinated, variable-speed locomotion can emerge from network-level interactions among interneuron populations with structured spatial connectivity.

    The evolution of interdisciplinarity and internationalization in scientific journals

    Huaxia Zhou, Luis A Nunes Amaral
    Analysis of ~50 million articles published in ~50 thousand journals demonstrates that journals have become more diverse in terms of both interdisciplinarity and internationalization but with some disciplinary differences.

    Decision-making components and times revealed by the single-trial electroencephalogram

    Gabriel Weindel, Jelmer P Borst, Leendert van Maanen
    By modeling the single-trial electroencephalogram of participants performing perceptual decisions, and building on predictions from two century-old psychological laws, we estimate the times of information processing steps contained in decision-making.

    Epidermal resident memory T cell fitness requires antigen encounter in the skin

    Eric S Weiss, Toshiro Hirai ... Daniel H Kaplan
    Antigen-driven TCR signaling in the epidermis during CD8+ TRM differentiation results in a lower TGFβ requirement for persistence and increased proliferative capacity that together enhance epidermal TRM fitness.

    Dual-modal metabolic analysis reveals hypothermia-reversible uncoupling of oxidative phosphorylation in neonatal brain hypoxia-ischemia

    Naidi Sun, Yu-Yo Sun ... Song Hu
    Post‑HI oxidative‑phosphorylation uncoupling drives secondary energy failure in neonatal brains, and preventing the post‑HI CMRO2 surge is a key mechanism underlying hypothermia’s neuroprotection.

    Sex differences in bile acid homeostasis and excretion underlie the disparity in liver cancer incidence between males and females

    Megan E Patton, Sherwin Kelekar ... Sayeepriyadarshini Anakk
    Transcriptomic and metabolite analysis reveal sex differences in circulation and excretion of bile acids in a mouse- model of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and the identified female-specific gene profile correlates with better HCC survival.
