    Frequency-dependent modulation of foveal contrast sensitivity by fine-scale exogenously triggered attention

    Yue Guzhang, T Florian Jaeger, Martina Poletti
    Fine-scale exogenous attention within the foveola selectively enhances contrast gain at low-to-mid spatial frequencies while increasing response gain across a broad spatial frequency range.

    Deciphering interferon functions in avian influenza using receptor knockout models in the natural host

    Mohanned Naif Alhussien, Hanna Kaisa Vikkula ... Benjamin Schusser
    Interferon receptor knockout chickens uncover how type I and III interferons differentially shape avian antiviral immunity and influenza disease outcomes.

    Conformational variability of HIV-1 Env trimer and viral vulnerability

    Yiwei Cao, Wonpil Im
    Large-scale all-atom simulations of a full-length, glycosylated HIV-1 Env trimer in an asymmetric membrane reveal a rigid ectodomain and highly diverse conformational landscapes in the membrane-proximal region and transmembrane domain.

    Disinformation elicits learning biases

    Juan Vidal-Perez, Raymond J Dolan, Rani Moran
    Learning from potential disinformation introduces specific cognitive biases, causing individuals to systematically deviate from an idealized Bayesian updating strategy.

    PHD1-dependent hydroxylation of RepoMan (CDCA2) on P604 modulates the control of mitotic progression

    Jimena Druker, Hao Jiang ... Angus I Lamond
    Proline hydroxylation of RepoMan (CDCA2) at P604 by PHD1 is shown to be important for mitotic progression and regulating interaction with PP2A regulatory subunit B56 gamma.

    Mycobacterium tuberculosis partitions the Krebs cycle under iron starvation

    Agnese Serafini, Acely Garza-Garcia ... Riccardo Manganelli
    Mycobacterium tuberculosis rewires central carbon metabolism to circumvent iron-dependent metabolic routes during iron starvation.

    Intrinsic properties link a network model to zebra finch song

    Nelson D Medina, Dan Margoliash
    Whole-cell recordings paired with a network model show that post-inhibitory rebound excitation in premotor neurons couples intrinsic excitability to the temporal structure of learned birdsong.

    Structural insights into the recruitment of viral type 2 IRES to ribosomal preinitiation complex for protein synthesis

    Deepakash Das, Tanweer Hussain
    The viral type 2 internal ribosome entry site uses a unique mechanism to hijack the host ribosomal machinery by interacting with initiator tRNA and 40S head.
