The glial-specific role of betaPix during cerebral blood vessel development has been revealed by establishing a new betaPix conditional trap allele in zebrafish.
Distinct patterns of SARS-CoV-2 viral dynamics in saliva reveal heterogeneity that cannot be sufficiently explained by conventional clinical characteristics or microRNA profiles alone.
A simple statistical model captures the essential features of object motion in a large database of natural scenes, helping to shed light on the challenges posed to sensory and motor systems.
BK and CaV1.3 channels interact early during biogenesis, assembling intracellularly before membrane localization, indicating coordinated processes for functional coupling.
Genetic approaches identify Rtf1-dependent transcriptional pausing as an essential mechanism governing the deployment of the cardiac gene program during myocardial differentiation from the mesoderm.
A context-driven memory model simulates a wide range of characteristics of waking and sleeping hippocampal replay, providing a new account of how and why replay occurs.

Cryo-EM structures of human aquaporin AQP2 bound to the anti-trypanosomal drugs pentamidine and melarsoprol identify the molecular mechanism for drug-resistant sleeping sickness.
Exosome-associated THSD7A is identified as a key trigger of filopodia formation in cancer cells and neurons, revealing a novel pathway with implications for metastasis, neuronal connectivity, and other filopodia-dependent processes.
Bioinformatics, RNA-protein interactions, and HuR-based functional studies demonstrated that the rs13900T allele modulates CCL2 transcript levels, providing a functional link between the CCL2 rs1024611G-rs13900T haplotype and disease susceptibility/progression.
