    A novel RAB5 binding site in human VPS34-CII that is likely the primordial site in eukaryotic evolution

    Saule Spokaite, Yohei Ohashi ... Roger L Williams
    Cryo-EM structures unexpectedly show that there are two binding sites for RAB5, with the VPS15 site being the most evolutionarily ancient site, which is essential for endocytic sorting.

    Computational mechanisms for temporal integration in the anterior claustrum

    Kuenbae Sohn, Donghyeon Yoon ... Sukwoo Choi
    Recurrent population dynamics in the anterior claustrum provide a candidate mechanism for integrating task-relevant signals across time.

    Chromosome-scale genome assembly of the European common cuttlefish Sepia officinalis

    Simone Daniela Rencken, Georgi Tushev ... Gilles Laurent
    A chromosome-scale, annotated reference genome for the common cuttlefish Sepia officinalis clarifies its karyotype and reveals cephalopod-specific gene family expansions across neural and non-neural tissues.

    Hsp70 is phosphorylated in a conserved response to DNA damage and contributes to cell cycle control

    Thomas Moss, Alexandra Wooldredge ... Shaeri Mukherjee
    A phosphorylation site on Hsp70 previously linked to pathogen activity functions endogenously in DNA damage responses and connects chaperone regulation to cell cycle control.

    Multi-talker speech comprehension at different temporal scales in listeners with normal and impaired hearing

    Jixing Li, Qixuan Wang ... Zhiwu Huang
    Hearing impairment selectively disrupts neural tracking of speech at both short and long temporal scales during multi-speaker listening, while preserving intermediate linguistic processing.

    Molecular architecture of the tumor microenvironment caused by BRCA1 and BRCA2 somatic mutations in human lung adenocarcinoma

    Gaoming Liao, Xinbin Yang ... Gang Xu
    BRCA1/2 mutations rewire the lung adenocarcinoma microenvironment through distinct immune programs, with BRCA1-linked type I interferon signaling and CD8+ T activation contrasting BRCA2-linked MHC-II antigen presentation and CD4+ T differentiation.
    1. Neuroscience

    Inhibitory columnar feedback neurons are involved in motion processing in Drosophila

    Miriam Henning, Madhura D Ketkar ... Marion Silies
    Inhibitory GABAergic feedback neurons tune direction-selective motion signals in Drosophila, sharpening behavioral responses to rapidly changing visual stimuli and expanding canonical feedforward models of visual motion computation.

    Cognitive simplicity drives collective route improvements in homing pigeons

    Shoubhik Chandan Banerjee, Fritz A Francisco, Albert B Kao
    A navigational model exploring social learning strategies differing in cognitive complexity in homing pigeons shows that simple averaging sufficiently explains collective route improvements, without requiring cumulative cultural evolution.

    Hyperactivated glycolysis drives spatially patterned Kupffer cell depletion in MASLD

    Jia He, Ran Li ... Zhao Shan
    Glycolytic activation directly drives Kupffer cell loss in early metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease, highlighting a targetable metabolic vulnerability.

    Developmental constraints mediate the reversal of temperature effects on the autumn phenology of European beech after the summer solstice

    Dominic Rebindaine, Thomas W Crowther ... Constantin M Zohner
    Faster early-season development, especially under nighttime warming, advances the point at which the autumn phenology of European beech becomes responsive to late-summer cooling.
