Tetrahymena germline chromosome ends contain germline-limited sequences that are removed by chromosome breakage, a critical step for programmed DNA elimination of other germline-limited sequences and successful sexual reproduction.
The cerebellum and ventral tegmental area interact during unexpected omissions of aversive outcomes in humans, supporting a role for reward-like prediction error signaling in fear extinction learning.
Extrachromosomal circular DNA has been identified as a novel component of stress granule cores, indicating its essential involvement in eukaryotic stress response pathways at the level of protein synthesis.
ACC contains specialized neurons that sustain rich action-relevant information after action execution, enabling prolonged action monitoring, and supporting complex associative linking across events.
Alphaherpesviruses hijack host epigenetic regulation by promoting HDAC1/2 nuclear export and degradation to activate the DNA damage response, revealing new antiviral therapeutic targets.

Spatial attention controls the information people become aware of and, in turn, incorporate into simplified perceptual representations for use in multi-step planning.
Absence of EML3 in mice leads to delayed embryonic development, small size, perinatal lethality, and the over-migration of neuroblasts due to a defective pial basement membrane.
