    Redox-controlled reorganization and flavin strain within the ribonucleotide reductase R2b–NrdI complex monitored by serial femtosecond crystallography

    Juliane John, Oskar Aurelius ... Martin Högbom
    The flavoprotein NrdI in class Ib ribonucleotide reductase controls superoxide generation and metal site oxidation by tuning the redox properties of its flavin cofactor via steric strain induced by the formation of the R2b–NrdI protein complex.
    1. Developmental Biology

    High hedgehog signaling is transduced by a multikinase-dependent switch controlling the apico-basal distribution of the GPCR smoothened

    Marina Gonçalves Antunes, Matthieu Sanial ... Isabelle Becam
    Hedgehog leads to Smoothened accumulation by favoring its recycling and high Hedgehog levels promote a basolateral enrichment of Smoothened via its phosphorylation by the protein kinase Fused.

    Single-molecule analysis of the entire perfringolysin O pore formation pathway

    Conall McGuinness, James C Walsh ... Till Böcking
    Arc-shaped PFO oligomers consisting of at least four subunits can insert into the membrane in a kinetically controlled process opening a transmembrane pore, whereby post-insertion growth may ultimately lead to formation of a complete ring.

    The scaffolding protein flot2 promotes cytoneme-based transport of wnt3 in gastric cancer

    Daniel Routledge, Sally Rogers ... Steffen Scholpp
    Signalling filopodia, also known as cytonemes, are a crucial transport mechanism of Wnt3 in gastric cancer and their emergence is controlled by Flot2.

    HLJ1 amplifies endotoxin-induced sepsis severity by promoting IL-12 heterodimerization in macrophages

    Wei-Jia Luo, Sung-Liang Yu ... Kang-Yi Su
    Single-cell RNA sequencing reveals HLJ1 as a novel immunomodulator for multicellular pathway of macrophages and NK cells, contributing to organ injury and sepsis death through amplified IL-12/IFN-γ axis.

    Low and high frequency intracranial neural signals match in the human associative cortex

    Corentin Jacques, Jacques Jonas ... Bruno Rossion
    Category-selective intracerebral neurophysiological activity in low- and high-frequency bands show unprecedented corresponding spatial, functional, and timing properties in the human brain.

    Evidence accumulation, not ‘self-control’, explains dorsolateral prefrontal activation during normative choice

    Cendri A Hutcherson, Anita Tusche
    A computational model of decision making suggests that the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex's role in self-control is more associated with evidence accumulation processes than with inhibition or modulation of value.

    Dendritic cell Piezo1 directs the differentiation of TH1 and Treg cells in cancer

    Yuexin Wang, Hui Yang ... Guangwei Liu
    Detailed in vivo and in vitro experimental data in mice and human cell experimental data provide critical insight for understanding the role of the DC-based mechanical regulation of immunopathology in directing T cell lineage commitment in tumor microenvironments.

    Epigenetic remodeling by vitamin C potentiates plasma cell differentiation

    Heng-Yi Chen, Ana Almonte-Loya ... Chan-Wang Jerry Lio
    Vitamin C supports the differentiation of antibody-secreting cells by remodeling the DNA methylome to enhance STAT3 DNA binding.

    Genetically manipulating endogenous Kras levels and oncogenic mutations in vivo influences tissue patterning of murine tumorigenesis

    Özgün Le Roux, Nicole LK Pershing ... Christopher M Counter
    Altering the level of different oncogenic mutants of Kras induces unique tumor patterns in mice, suggesting that tissue-specific responses mold the sensitivity of normal tissues to different oncogenic RAS mutations.
