    Genetic integration of behavioural and endocrine components of the stress response

    Thomas M Houslay, Ryan L Earley ... Alastair Wilson
    Behavioural and physiological stress response components are integrated on the major axis of genetic covariation, with implications for health and the understanding of the evolutionary response to stressors.

    The MIDAS domain of AAA mechanoenzyme Mdn1 forms catch bonds with two different substrates

    Keith J Mickolajczyk, Paul Dominic B Olinares ... Tarun M Kapoor
    The MIDAS domain of Mdn1, an ATP-driven mechanoenzyme involved in ribosome biogenesis, forms catch bonds with two different ubiquitin-like domain-containing ribosomal assembly factors.

    Distinguishing between recruitment and spread of silent chromatin structures in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

    Molly Brothers, Jasper Rine
    Heterochromatin proteins like the SIR complex in budding yeast use different mechanisms for recruitment to nucleation sites and long-range spread to create a domain of transcriptional silencing.

    Differences in pathways contributing to thyroid hormone effects on postnatal cartilage calcification versus secondary ossification center development

    Gustavo A Gomez, Patrick Aghajanian ... Subburaman Mohan
    Mouse molecular genetics and in vivo functional studies reveal that thyroid hormone is necessary for punctual proximal femur head development by a mechanism that differs temporally and molecularly from the secondary ossification center at the distal femur.

    Parallel processing in speech perception with local and global representations of linguistic context

    Christian Brodbeck, Shohini Bhattasali ... Ellen Lau
    Speech processing engages multiple predictive models, using sublexical, word- and sentence contexts in parallel to anticipate upcoming phonemes.

    Differential adhesion regulates neurite placement via a retrograde zippering mechanism

    Titas Sengupta, Noelle L Koonce ... Daniel A Colón-Ramos
    Biophysical differential adhesion principles drive non-canonical, zippering mechanisms in vivo, regulating precise neurite placement, and synaptic specificity within Caenorhabditis elegans brain bundles.
