An evolutionary algorithm is used to build gene networks implementing cell size control, and suggests multiple ways for evolution to first build sizers and turn them into adders depending on evolutionary constraints.

The serine phosphorylated and inhibited KdpFABC complex (KdpFAB_S162-PC) adopts an off-cycle E1P tight state, due to an impaired E1P/E2P transition.

A new approach for fast, sparse neural circuit mapping allows circuit structure, physiology, and behavior to be quantified in the same animal and across many animals.

Time-resolved decoding of EEG reveals the nature of representations of upcoming actions and how the planned action is selected from working memory.

Evolution-guided functional analyses identify an activating adaptor of the dynein intracellular transportation machinery, NINL, as a novel component of the antiviral immune response and reveal a mechanism by which viruses antagonize NINL function in a species-specific manner.

Neurons responsible for detecting local visual features are modulated by visual and motor-related forms of gain control that increase the threshold for detection when self-generated movement signals would dominate visual input.

Receptive fields for time in the hippocampus, like receptive fields for retinal space and receptive fields for numerosity, obey the Weber-Fechner law.

The extracellular concentration of dopamine in the nucleus accumbens core is progressively diminished by white noise, an underutilized, easy-to-titrate aversive stimulus, but is unaffected by white-noise intensity, context valence, and associated probabilistic contingencies.

CD169⁺ macrophages in the bone marrow of malaria-infected mice uptake infected red blood cells, and establish a functional interaction that is required to activate plasmacytoid dendritic cells to secrete type I interferon and leave the bone marrow.

A combined experimental and modeling approach provides insight into potential biases when inferring transcription rates from static mRNA distributions, and shows that correcting for cell-cycle phase and post-transcriptional noise provides rates that agree with live-cell transcription measurements.
