    Cryo-EM structure in situ reveals a molecular switch that safeguards virus against genome loss

    Oliver W Bayfield, Alasdair C Steven, Alfred A Antson
    Structure of the portal protein of a thermostable virus, determined in its capsid-bound state, reveals a molecular mechanism that prevents DNA slippage during genome packaging.

    Landscape mapping of shared antigenic epitopes and their cognate TCRs of tumor-infiltrating T lymphocytes in melanoma

    Kenji Murata, Munehide Nakatsugawa ... Naoto Hirano
    A library of the paired peptide/HLA multimers and artificial APCs allows for construction of a large database of class I-restricted peptides and cognate tumor-reactive TCR genes at an unprecedented scale.

    Behavioral evidence for memory replay of video episodes in the macaque

    Shuzhen Zuo, Lei Wang ... Sze Chai Kwok
    Macaque monkeys temporally compress past experiences and use a forward-replay mechanism during judgment of temporal-order between episodes.

    A helminth-derived suppressor of ST2 blocks allergic responses

    Francesco Vacca, Caroline Chauché ... Henry J McSorley
    HpBARI is a protein secreted by a parasitic helminth, which binds to and blocks the IL-33 receptor, suppressing IL-33-dependent type 2 immune responses.

    Intravascular flow stimulates PKD2 (polycystin-2) channels in endothelial cells to reduce blood pressure

    Charles E MacKay, M Dennis Leo ... Jonathan H Jaggar
    PKD2 (polycystin-2) channels are a major component of a flow-sensing signaling mechanism in endothelial cells that stimulates vasodilation and reduces blood pressure.

    Essential function of the alveolin network in the subpellicular microtubules and conoid assembly in Toxoplasma gondii

    Nicolò Tosetti, Nicolas Dos Santos Pacheco ... Dominique Soldati-Favre
    A combination of high-resolution microscopy and reverse genetics identified key components of the alveolin network playing an essential role in the assembly of subpellicular microtubules and conoid in Toxoplasma gondii..

    R-spondin signalling is essential for the maintenance and differentiation of mouse nephron progenitors

    Valerie PI Vidal, Fariba Jian-Motamedi ... Andreas Schedl
    In the developing kidney, secreted molecules of the R-spondin family control progenitor cell proliferation and nephron formation by permitting WNT/β-catenin signalling.

    A dynamic interaction between CD19 and the tetraspanin CD81 controls B cell co-receptor trafficking

    Katherine J Susa, Tom CM Seegar ... Andrew C Kruse
    The tetraspanin CD81 uses its ectodomain to export CD19, and the interaction of the two proteins is dynamically regulated by B cell activation state.

    Identification of novel, clinically correlated autoantigens in the monogenic autoimmune syndrome APS1 by proteome-wide PhIP-Seq

    Sara E Vazquez, Elise MN Ferré ... Mark S Anderson
    Humans with mutations in the AIRE gene exhibit common autoantibodies targeting ovarian and intestinal antigens, including intestinal dysfunction-associated antibodies to enteroendocrine transcription factor RFX6.

    Connectomic analysis reveals an interneuron with an integral role in the retinal circuit for night vision

    Silvia JH Park, Evan E Lieberman ... Joshua H Singer
    Anatomical and physiological analyses identified an inhibitory interneuron that is an integral part of the rod bipolar cell pathway, the circuit for night vision, of the mammalian retina.
