    Uev1A counteracts oncogenic Ras stimuli in both polyploid and diploid cells

    Qi Zhang, Yunfeng Wang ... Shaowei Zhao
    Uev1A and APC/C degrade CycA to counteract oncogenic Ras, thereby protecting against cell death in polyploid Drosophila nurse cells and suppressing overgrowth in diploid germline and human colorectal tumor cells.

    Stall force measurement of the kinesin-3 motor KIF1A using a programmable DNA origami nanospring

    Nobumichi Takamatsu, Hiroko Furumoto ... Kumiko Hayashi
    A DNA origami nanospring introduces a force-sensing technology that enables measurement of motor protein stall forces without optical trapping, detecting force changes in kinesin KIF1A and its disease-related mutants.

    Adaptor protein supersaturation drives innate immune signaling and cell fate

    Alejandro Rodriguez Gama, Tayla Miller ... Randal Halfmann
    In-cell biophysical analyses identify a sequence-encoded energy storage function of innate immune adaptor proteins that allows cells to respond quickly and decisively to pathogenic signals.

    Human genetic ancestry, Mycobacterium tuberculosis diversity, and tuberculosis disease severity in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania

    Michaela Zwyer, Zhi Ming Xu ... Daniela Brites
    The severity of active tuberculosis in a high-burden population is not explained by host or pathogen genetic variation, suggesting a dominant role for social and environmental factors.

    A deep learning pipeline for mapping in situ network-level neurovascular coupling in multi-photon fluorescence microscopy

    Matthew W Rozak, James R Mester ... Bojana Stefanovic
    A novel pipeline for analyzing longitudinal two-photon microscopy data of cerebrovasculature in mice interrogates the vasculature network before and after optogenetic stimulation, revealing new insights into their coordination.

    Visual information is broadcast among cortical areas in discrete channels

    Yiyi Yu, Jeffery N Stirman ... Spencer LaVere Smith
    Activity fluctuations, or noise correlations, are robust measures of neuronal connectivity and they reveal that neural circuity controls mixing of information at a granular level across millimeter-length scales.

    Contributions of insula and superior temporal sulcus to interpersonal guilt and responsibility in social decisions

    Maria Gädeke, Tom Eric Willems ... Johannes Schultz
    Being responsible for a partner's adverse outcomes is associated with anterior insula activation, while the superior temporal sulcus tracks prediction errors for the partner's reward resulting from the participant's decisions.

    The 1000+ mouse project for large-scale spatiotemporal parametrization and modeling of preclinical cancer immunotherapies

    Adam L Kenet, Sooraj Achar ... Grégoire Y Altan-Bonnet
    An automated bioluminescent image analysis framework, maRQup, parametrizes tumor dynamics and provides quantitative metrics, enabling large-scale evaluation and optimization of preclinical cancer immunotherapies.

    Control of innate olfactory valence by segregated cortical amygdala circuits

    James R Howe, Chung Lung Chan ... Cory M Root
    Topographically distributed plCoA populations direct innate olfactory responses by signaling to divergent valence-specific targets, linking upstream olfactory identity to downstream valence behaviors, through a population code.

    4-Aminoquinolines block heme iron reactivity and interfere with artemisinin action

    Melissa Rosenthal, Daniel E Goldberg
    Chloroquine interferes with artemisinin activation, and such interactions should be considered when formulating antimalarial drug combinations.
