    Intermittent subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation induces risk-aversive behavior in human subjects

    Shaun R Patel, Todd M Herrington ... Emad N Eskandar
    Deep brain stimulation can selectively modify neural activity within the subthalamic nucleus to modify decisions under uncertainty in human subjects.

    Piezo1 forms a slowly-inactivating mechanosensory channel in mouse embryonic stem cells

    Josefina Inés del Mármol, Kouki K Touhara ... Roderick MacKinnon
    Piezo1 exhibits markedly different kinetic behavior in different cellular contexts.

    Mitotic progression, arrest, exit or death relies on centromere structural integrity, rather than de novo transcription

    Marco Novais-Cruz, Maria Alba Abad ... Cristina Ferrás
    Direct live-cell imaging of human cells, combined with RNA-seq, qPCR and in vitro reconstitution essays, reveal that mitotic progression, arrest, exit or death is independent of de novo transcription.

    Motoneuron Wnts regulate neuromuscular junction development

    Chengyong Shen, Lei Li ... Lin Mei
    A novel role of motoneuron Wnts in regulating presynaptic development at the neuromuscular junction.

    DET1-mediated degradation of a SAGA-like deubiquitination module controls H2Bub homeostasis

    Amr Nassrallah, Martin Rougée ... Fredy Barneche
    Light signaling components interact with a histone H2B deubiquitination module, adjusting chromatin states at global level during Arabidopsis seedling development.

    tp53 deficiency causes a wide tumor spectrum and increases embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma metastasis in zebrafish

    Myron S Ignatius, Madeline N Hayes ... David M Langenau
    Syngeneic tp53-null zebrafish develop a wide range of tumors that engraft into recipient animals with loss of Tp53 leading to increased metastasis in embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma (ERMS), likely accounting for increased aggression in TP53-inactivated human ERMS.

    Defective RNA polymerase III is negatively regulated by the SUMO-Ubiquitin-Cdc48 pathway

    Zheng Wang, Catherine Wu ... Tony Hunter
    The SUMO-Ub-Cdc48 pathway is a novel regulatory mechanism of Pol III and a potential therapeutic target for Pol III-related human diseases.

    Integrated externally and internally generated task predictions jointly guide cognitive control in prefrontal cortex

    Jiefeng Jiang, Anthony D Wagner, Tobias Egner
    The dorsolateral prefrontal cortex integrates concurrent externally and internally generated predictions of task demand to guide information processing, while the medial prefrontal cortex corrects its prediction error based on actual task demand.

    Arabidopsis formin 2 regulates cell-to-cell trafficking by capping and stabilizing actin filaments at plasmodesmata

    Min Diao, Sulin Ren ... Shanjin Huang
    Cytological and biochemical analyses reveal Arabidopsis formin 2 is involved in regulating PD permeability by anchoring actin filaments to PD and stabilizing them through actin filament barbed end capping activity.

    E proteins sharpen neurogenesis by modulating proneural bHLH transcription factors’ activity in an E-box-dependent manner

    Gwenvael Le Dréau, René Escalona ... Elisa Marti
    Rather than acting as passive and neutral co-factors for proneural proteins, E proteins play an active role in modulating the way the distinct proneural proteins instruct neurogenesis.
