    p38γ and p38δ modulate innate immune response by regulating MEF2D activation

    Alejandra Escós, Ester Diaz-Mora ... Ana Cuenda
    Generation and validation of a new mouse strain as a tool to demonstrate the implication of p38γ/p38δ in inflammation through the regulation of the transcription factor MEF2D’s activity.

    Long-range DNA end resection supports homologous recombination by checkpoint activation rather than extensive homology generation

    Michael T Kimble, Matthew J Johnson ... Lorraine S Symington
    The long-range resection machinery is dispensable for homologous recombination between closely linked repeats but is necessary for DNA damage checkpoint activation which is associated with interchromosomal recombination.

    Medullary tachykinin precursor 1 neurons promote rhythmic breathing

    Jean-Philippe Rousseau, Andreea Furdui ... Gaspard Montandon
    A group of neurons in the medulla expressing the tachykinin precursor 1 promote rhythmic breathing, but also elicit substantial motor behaviors, suggesting a dual role for these neurons in the medulla.
    1. Neuroscience

    Large-scale neural dynamics in a shared low-dimensional state space reflect cognitive and attentional dynamics

    Hayoung Song, Won Mok Shim, Monica D Rosenberg
    People’s neural activity travels between a small number of brain states based on what they are thinking and paying attention to.

    Sex-specific splicing occurs genome-wide during early Drosophila embryogenesis

    Mukulika Ray, Ashley Mae Conard ... Erica Larschan
    Combining computational and experimental approaches reveals that the loss of a maternal transcription factor influences sex-biased differential splicing in the early zygotic transcriptome at genes that are critical for normal developmental processes.

    Promoting axon regeneration by inhibiting RNA N6-methyladenosine demethylase ALKBH5

    Dong Wang, Tiemei Zheng ... Bin Yu
    Inhibiting RNA N6-methyladenosine demethylase ALKBH5 promoted axonal regeneration of dorsal root ganglion neurons by regulating stability of Lpin2 mRNA and enhanced the survival and axonal regeneration of retinal ganglion cells.

    Structural insight into guanylyl cyclase receptor hijacking of the kinase–Hsp90 regulatory mechanism

    Nathanael A Caveney, Naotaka Tsutsumi, K Christopher Garcia
    Cryo-EM structures reveal GC-C associates with regulatory heat shock proteins similarly to bona fide protein kinases and this can guide the further development of mGC-targeted therapeutics.

    Structural and mechanistic insights into the MCM8/9 helicase complex

    Zhuangfeng Weng, Jiefu Zheng ... Yingfang Liu
    The hexametric structures of MCM8/9, revealed through cryo-electron microscopy single particle analysis, provide a foundational understanding of its helicase activity and offer novel insights into its mechanistic role.

    Structure of the connexin-43 gap junction channel in a putative closed state

    Chao Qi, Silvia Acosta Gutierrez ... Volodymyr M Korkhov
    Cryo-EM structures and molecular dynamics simulations of Cx43 gap junction channel and hemichannel reveal a putative closed state.

    New hypotheses of cell type diversity and novelty from orthology-driven comparative single cell and nuclei transcriptomics in echinoderms

    Anne Meyer, Carolyn Ku ... Veronica Hinman
    Understanding novel cell types and their evolutionary history is re-evaluated using single nuclei transcriptomic approaches and their inferred underlying gene regulatory networks.
