    Photoreceptor disc incisures form as an adaptive mechanism ensuring the completion of disc enclosure

    Tylor R Lewis, Sebastien Phan ... Vadim Y Arshavsky
    Maturation of light-sensitive 'disc' membranes in vertebrate photoreceptors requires a precise balance between their content of the visual pigment rhodopsin forming the disc body and tetraspanin proteins forming the disc rim.

    Theta-phase-specific modulation of dentate gyrus memory neurons

    Bahar Rahsepar, Jacob F Norman ... John A White
    Consistent with an existing computational model of hippocampal function, using real-time feedback to drive artificial memories at the trough of the hippocampal theta rhythm improves apparent recall.

    Phosphorylation of tyrosine 90 in SH3 domain is a new regulatory switch controlling Src kinase

    Lenka Koudelková, Markéta Pelantová ... Daniel Rösel
    The functional role of novel regulatory mechanism within prototypic oncogenic kinase c-Src is described with particular emphasis on cancer cell migration, invasiveness, oncogenic transformation, and multilevel regulation of Src itself.

    Recapitulation of pathophysiological features of AD in SARS-CoV-2-infected subjects

    Elizabeth Griggs, Kyle Trageser ... Giulio Maria Pasinetti
    New evidence of brain proinflammatory cascades supports post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection, ultimately promoting the onset and progression of Alzheimer's disease as a function of age.

    Contrasting action and posture coding with hierarchical deep neural network models of proprioception

    Kai J Sandbrink, Pranav Mamidanna ... Alexander Mathis
    To isolate and study proprioception, hierarchical deep neural networks paired with biomechanical models provide a normative approach to test the role of task effects on neural representations, such as the emergence of kinematic tuning and higher-level abstractions of actions.

    Fluid extraction from the left-right organizer uncovers mechanical properties needed for symmetry breaking

    Pedro Sampaio, Sara Pestana ... Susana Santos Lopes
    Zebrafish have a physiological time-window of 1 hr for breaking left-right symmetry and are highly sensitive to the left-right organizer anterior fluid mechanics rather than to the nature of its fluid content.

    The yeast endocytic early/sorting compartment exists as an independent sub-compartment within the trans-Golgi network

    Junko Y Toshima, Ayana Tsukahara ... Jiro Toshima
    The yeast syntaxin homolog Tlg2p-residing sub-compartment within the trans-Golgi network is the primary endocytic-accepting region that serves as an early/sorting compartment.

    The role of B cells in immune cell activation in polycystic ovary syndrome

    Angelo Ascani, Sara Torstensson ... Elisabet Stener-Victorin
    Androgen receptor activation modifies B cell frequencies and functionality, accompanied by weight gain in female mice exposed to human PCOS IgG, highlighting the unrecognized involvement of B cells in PCOS autoimmune comorbidities despite their absence not preventing PCOS phenotype development.

    Association of close-range contact patterns with SARS-CoV-2: a household transmission study

    Jackie Kleynhans, Lorenzo Dall'Amico ... SA-S-HTS Group
    While recognizing study design limitations, the lack of association between household close range proximity events and SARS-CoV-2 transmission, suggests that aerosol transmission may play a larger role than droplet transmission in the household.

    Identification of candidate mitochondrial inheritance determinants using the mammalian cell-free system

    Dalen Zuidema, Alexis Jones ... Peter Sutovsky
    Proteomic analysis in a novel cell-free system for the study of mitophagy, identifies candidate proteins involved in the enforcement of clonal, maternal inheritance of mitochondria and mitochondrial genes in mammals.
