    Decoding the biogenesis of HIV-induced CPSF6 puncta and their fusion with nuclear speckles

    Chiara Tomasini, Celine Cuche ... Francesca Di Nunzio
    HIV hijacks SRRM2 to enlarge nuclear speckles, stabilizing CPSF6 puncta and promoting efficient viral replication.

    CCDC32 stabilizes clathrin-coated pits and drives their invagination

    Ziyan Yang, Changsong Yang ... Zhiming Chen
    Live cell imaging and biochemical analyses reveal that CCDC32 interacts with AP2 to stabilize and drive invagination of clathrin-coated pits, and that clinical mutations disrupting this interaction cause cardio-facio-neuro-developmental syndrome.

    Female moths incorporate plant acoustic emissions into their oviposition decision-making process

    Rya Seltzer, Guy Zer Eshel ... Yossi Yovel
    Acoustic ecology introduces an additional dimension in plant-insect communication, revealing that female moths use ultrasonic emissions from dehydrated plants to guide oviposition decisions.

    Population analyses reveal heterogenous encoding in the medial prefrontal cortex during naturalistic foraging

    Ji Hoon Jeong, June-Seek Choi
    During foraging under predatory threat, overlapping prefrontal neuron populations flexibly switch between encoding navigational space and predicting avoidance decisions.

    Deletion of the moeA gene in Flavobacterium IR1 drives structural color shift from green to blue and alters polysaccharide metabolism

    Álvaro Escobar Doncel, Constantinos Patinios ... Colin J Ingham
    Disrupting a single molybdenum cofactor gene allowed us to connect metabolic regulation of complex carbohydrates with cell organization, enabling genetic tuning of bacterial structural color for biomaterial applications.

    Differential destinations, dynamics, and functions of high- and low-order features in the feedback signal during object processing

    Wenhao Hou, Sheng He, Jiedong Zhang
    Feedback signals to the early visual cortex convey both high-order and low-order visual information, but with different laminar profiles, and the high-order information is important for object recognition.

    Specific proteolysis mediated by a p97-directed proteolysis-targeting chimera (p97-PROTAC)

    Constanza Salinas-Rebolledo, Javier Blesa ... Alejandro Rojas-Fernandez
    Synthetic adaptors combining camelid nanobodies with the UBX domain of the p97 adaptor FAF1 enable targeted substrate delivery to p97, establishing an E3 ubiquitin ligase-independent mechanism for selective protein degradation.

    The evolution of interdisciplinarity and internationalization in scientific journals

    Huaxia Zhou, Luis A Nunes Amaral
    Analysis of ~50 million articles published in ~50 thousand journals demonstrates that journals have become more diverse in terms of both interdisciplinarity and internationalization but with some disciplinary differences.

    JAK-STAT pathway activation compromises nephrocyte function in a Drosophila high-fat diet model of chronic kidney disease

    Yunpo Zhao, Jianli Duan ... Zhe Han
    A conserved signaling axis linking Drosophila adipose tissue to nephrocyte function reveals how obesity can drive kidney dysfunction and points to new opportunities for therapeutic intervention.

    Hybridization breaks species barriers in long-term coevolution of a cyanobacterial population

    Gabriel Birzu, Harihara Subrahmaniam Muralidharan ... Devaki Bhaya
    Analysis of hundreds of single-cell genomes from Yellowstone National Park shows bacterial species are less cohesive than previously thought.
