    Comparing the outputs of intramural and extramural grants funded by National Institutes of Health

    Xiang Zheng, Qiyao Yang ... B Ian Hutchins
    Funding mechanisms impact the cost effectiveness of the science conducted, as extramural NIH grants to universities excel at producing papers and citations, while intramural NIH hiring more effectively translates to clinical impact.

    The microtubule-binding protein EML3 is required for mammalian embryonic growth and cerebral cortical development, and Eml3 null mice are a model of cobblestone brain malformation

    Isabelle Carrier, Eduardo Diez ... Roderick McInnes
    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.

    Inferring variant-specific effective reproduction numbers from combined case and sequencing data

    Marlin D Figgins, Trevor Bedford
    Integrating case counts with genomic sequences quantifies real-time transmission advantages of viral variants.

    How attention simplifies mental representations for planning

    Jason da Silva Castanheira, Christina Chang He ... Stephen M Fleming
    Spatial attention controls the information people become aware of and, in turn, incorporate into simplified perceptual representations for use in multi-step planning.

    The targeted cytosolic degradation of class I histone deacetylases is essential for efficient alphaherpesvirus replication

    Sheng-Li Ming, Meng-Hua Du ... Bei-Bei Chu
    Alphaherpesviruses hijack host epigenetic regulation by promoting HDAC1/2 nuclear export and degradation to activate the DNA damage response, revealing new antiviral therapeutic targets.

    Autosomal allelic inactivation at loci with variable replication timing and dosage sensitivity

    Michael B Heskett, Athanasios E Vouzas ... Mathew J Thayer
    Stable allele-specific epigenetic regulation creates cellular mosaicism of numerous autosomal dosage-sensitive genes involved in human neurological and developmental disorders.

    Visual working memory guides attention rhythmically in humans

    Jiachen Lu, Yaochun Cai, Xilin Zhang
    Working memory alternates between remembered items in a rhythmic theta cycle.

    Depletion of extracellular asparagine impairs self-reactive T cells and ameliorates autoimmunity in a murine model of multiple sclerosis

    Peter Georgiev, Sheila Johnson ... Arlene H Sharpe
    A comprehensive investigation of extracellular asparagine utilization highlights its role as a critical regulator of murine CD4+ T cell activation, differentiation, and function.

    Dynamic assembly of malate dehydrogenase–citrate synthase multienzyme complex in the mitochondria

    Joy Omini, Inga Krassovskaya ... Toshihiro Obata
    The yeast mitochondrial malate dehydrogenase–citrate synthase metabolon is a dynamic multienzyme complex that continuously assembles and disassembles in response to respiratory activity, mitochondrial matrix pH, and substrate abundances.

    Medial prefrontal cortex encodes but is not required to generate goal-directed actions under threat

    Muhammad S Sajid, Ji Zhou, Manuel A Castro-Alamancos
    Medial prefrontal cortex activity is not required for learning or execution of adaptive avoidance behavior, despite encoding select task features.
