    Functional abnormalities in the cerebello-thalamic pathways in a mouse model of DYT25 dystonia

    Hind Baba Aïssa, Romain W Sala ... Daniela Popa
    In a mouse model of DYT25 dystonia with disruption of striatal neurotransmission by Gnal mutation, the cerebello-thalamic excitability is increased following symptom expression and θ-burst cerebellar stimulations during cholinergic-induced dystonia depress the cerebello-thalamic transmission and reduce the motor symptom severity.

    Cytosolic aspartate aminotransferase moonlights as a ribosome-binding modulator of Gcn2 activity during oxidative stress

    Robert A Crawford, Mark P Ashe ... Graham D Pavitt
    Using mass spectrometry to study protein composition of translating ribosomes under unstressed or stress conditions, aspartate aminotransferase 2 (Aat2) is identified as a metabolic enzyme with a moonlighting function in the yeast integrated stress-response pathway.

    Single-cell transcriptome reveals insights into the development and function of the zebrafish ovary

    Yulong Liu, Michelle E Kossack ... Bruce W Draper
    Single-cell transcriptomics of the zebrafish ovary identifies both major and minor cell types and provides a valuable resource for researchers interested in reproductive biology, stem cell biology, and aquatic toxicology.

    Nanoscale resolution of microbial fiber degradation in action

    Meltem Tatli, Sarah Moraïs ... Itzhak Mizrahi
    Phenotypic heterogeneity at the single-cell level of cellulosomal machinery biosynthesis suggests a division-of-labor strategy as revealed by the nanoscale mechanistic and ecological investigation of in situ structure and distribution of cellulosomes on bacteria while interacting with the cellulosic substrate.

    Transcriptional regulation of cyclophilin D by BMP/Smad signaling and its role in osteogenic differentiation

    Rubens Sautchuk, Brianna H Kalicharan ... Roman A Eliseev
    Promoter studies identified BMP/Smad signaling as a transcriptional regulator of Ppif gene encoding cyclophilin D, a component of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore, and gain- and loss-of-function experiments determined how such regulation affects osteogenic differentiation.

    Lowland plant arrival in alpine ecosystems facilitates a decrease in soil carbon content under experimental climate warming

    Tom WN Walker, Konstantin Gavazov ... Jake M Alexander
    Uphill migrations of lowland plants into warming alpine ecosystems may yield a positive climate feedback by accelerating soil microbial respiration and decreasing soil carbon content.

    RNA-binding proteins direct myogenic cell fate decisions

    Joshua R Wheeler, Oscar N Whitney ... Bradley B Olwin
    Temporally regulated RNA-binding proteins orchestrate RNA splicing to drive myogenesis.

    Systematic lncRNA mapping to genome-wide co-essential modules uncovers cancer dependency on uncharacterized lncRNAs

    Ramkrishna Mitra, Clare M Adams, Christine M Eischen
    The discovery of uncharacterized lncRNAs that regulate cell proliferation/growth across cancer types, including two p53 regulated tumor suppressive lncRNAs, were identified through systematic analyses of multi-omics data and provides a computational framework resource to cancer researchers.

    Complex fitness landscape shapes variation in a hyperpolymorphic species

    Anastasia V Stolyarova, Tatiana V Neretina ... Georgii A Bazykin
    Some deleterious mutations co-occurring within a genome can compensate each other, and this affects patterns of polymorphism, particularly in highly polymorphic species.

    Endocytic trafficking promotes vacuolar enlargements for fast cell expansion rates in plants

    Kai Dünser, Maria Schöller ... Jürgen Kleine-Vehn
    Cellular and vacuolar size expansion are coordinated.
