    A dynamic clamp protocol to artificially modify cell capacitance

    Paul Pfeiffer, Federico José Barreda Tomás ... Susanne Schreiber
    Via the capacitance clamp, electrophysiologists can for the first time flexibly set an artificial membrane capacitance for neurons and other excitable cells and thereby adjust their membrane time constant independent of any conductance changes.

    The LOTUS initiative for open knowledge management in natural products research

    Adriano Rutz, Maria Sorokina ... Pierre-Marie Allard
    The LOTUS initiative builds, through the Wikidata knowledge graph, a virtuous cycle of data sharing practices for natural products research.

    Mapping brain-wide excitatory projectome of primate prefrontal cortex at submicron resolution and comparison with diffusion tractography

    Mingchao Yan, Wenwen Yu ... Zheng Wang
    A comprehensive excitatory projectome of the ventro-lateral prefrontal cortex in macaques was generated by using viral tracing integrated with serial two-photon tomography and diffusion tractography, thus providing new evidence of rejecting the monosynaptic connection of inferior fronto-occipital fasciculus in monkeys.

    A transcriptomic atlas of Aedes aegypti reveals detailed functional organization of major body parts and gut regional specializations in sugar-fed and blood-fed adult females

    Bretta Hixson, Xiao-Li Bing ... Nicolas Buchon
    RNAseq profiles of female Aedes body parts, gut regions, and blood-fed guts provide insight into the anatomical patterning of immune and digestive function, and demonstrate the sequential induction of multiple peptidase cohorts over the course of blood meal digestion.

    Comparative multi-tissue profiling reveals extensive tissue-specificity in transcriptome reprogramming during thermal adaptation

    Noushin Hadadi, Martina Spiljar ... Mirko Trajkovski
    Integrative analysis of multi-tissue transcriptomics data of mice subjected to cold, mild warm or room temperature places the thermal adaptation of individual tissues in a whole-organism perspective.

    Machine learning sequence prioritization for cell type-specific enhancer design

    Alyssa J Lawler, Easwaran Ramamurthy ... Andreas R Pfenning
    A new cross-species machine learning-based strategy is applied to find enhancers that specifically label parvalbumin neurons in the mouse and macaque.

    Conservation and divergence of myelin proteome and oligodendrocyte transcriptome profiles between humans and mice

    Vasiliki-Ilya Gargareta, Josefine Reuschenbach ... Hauke B Werner
    Comparing humans and mice, the protein composition of central nervous system myelin and the transcriptional profiles of myelin-producing oligodendrocytes are largely similar with respect to abundant structural myelin constituents but show divergent expression of a range of other distinct genes.

    A novel lineage-tracing mouse model for studying early MmuPV1 infections

    Vural Yilmaz, Panayiota Louca ... Katerina Strati
    A novel mouse model which permits tracking of papillomavirus infected cells in mouse stratified epithelia during early infection by means of genetic reporter activation.

    Boosting targeted genome editing using the hei-tag

    Thomas Thumberger, Tinatini Tavhelidse-Suck ... Joachim Wittbrodt
    Increased efficiency of targeted genome editing by simple addition of a bipartite-optimized tag at the N- and C-termini of effector proteins (Cas9 and cytosine-to-thymine base editor) is applicable in organismo and cell culture.

    Development and characterization of new tools for detecting poly(ADP-ribose) in vitro and in vivo

    Sridevi Challa, Keun W Ryu ... W Lee Kraus
    Poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR) Trackers (PAR-Ts) are optimized PAR sensors that allow the detection and quantification of PAR levels in extracts, living cells, and living tissues with high sensitivity, and with temporal and spatial precision, in many different experimental and biological systems.
