    Structure of the bacterial ribosome at 2 Å resolution

    Zoe L Watson, Fred R Ward ... Jamie HD Cate
    High-resolution maps and models of the bacterial ribosome provide new chemical insights into protein synthesis, and should enable the development of robust tools for cryo-EM structure modeling and refinement.

    Lysosomal protein surface expression discriminates fat- from bone-forming human mesenchymal precursor cells

    Jiajia Xu, Yiyun Wang ... Aaron W James
    CD107a expression divides osteogenic from adipogenic perivascular precursor cells within human white adipose tissue.

    Retinotectal circuitry of larval zebrafish is adapted to detection and pursuit of prey

    Dominique Förster, Thomas O Helmbrecht ... Herwig Baier
    The retinotectal map in zebrafish exhibits location-specific, functional specializations to match prey object movement in the visual field during the hunting sequence.

    The transcriptomic response of cells to a drug combination is more than the sum of the responses to the monotherapies

    Jennifer EL Diaz, Mehmet Eren Ahsen ... Gustavo Stolovitzky
    The transcriptomic profiles of the constituent monotherapies of synergistic drug pairs tend to be correlated and result in novel gene expression in the combinations.

    A connectome and analysis of the adult Drosophila central brain

    Louis K Scheffer, C Shan Xu ... Stephen M Plaza
    New reconstruction methods are used to create a publicly available dense reconstruction of the neurons and chemical synapses of central brain of Drosophila, with analysis of its graph properties.

    A multi-layered and dynamic apical extracellular matrix shapes the vulva lumen in Caenorhabditis elegans

    Jennifer D Cohen, Alessandro P Sparacio ... Meera V Sundaram
    Confocal imaging, electron microscopy, and genetic perturbations provide an unprecedented view of a complex and dynamic luminal matrix that determines tube shape during morphogenesis.

    Repurposing of KLF5 activates a cell cycle signature during the progression from a precursor state to oesophageal adenocarcinoma

    Connor Rogerson, Samuel Ogden ... Andrew D Sharrocks
    Genome-wide redistribution of KLF5 binding leads to activation of a cell cycle gene expression programme and proliferation control in oesophageal cancer.

    Attention-related modulation of caudate neurons depends on superior colliculus activity

    James P Herman, Fabrice Arcizet, Richard J Krauzlis
    The pattern of spatial attention preferences in caudate neurons is altered by superior colliculus inactivation, demonstrating that a superior colliculus to basal ganglia link is important for selective attention.

    PLK-1 promotes the merger of the parental genome into a single nucleus by triggering lamina disassembly

    Griselda Velez-Aguilera, Sylvia Nkombo Nkoula ... Lionel Pintard
    The polo-like kinase (Plk1) phophorylates the C. elegans lamin LMN-1 to promote timely lamina disassembly, which is essential for the merging of the parental chromosomes at the beginning of life.

    Cadherin preserves cohesion across involuting tissues during C. elegans neurulation

    Kristopher M Barnes, Li Fan ... Zhirong Bao
    A coordinated tissue movement during C. elegans central nervous system internalization reveals a novel role for HMR-1/cadherin in maintaining cohesion, and extends the concept of neurulation beyond vertebrates.
