    Cre-assisted fine-mapping of neural circuits using orthogonal split inteins

    Haojiang Luan, Alexander Kuzin ... Benjamin H White
    A genetic method allows neurons to be individually identified and characterized by combining information about both their developmental origins and their mature patterns of gene expression.

    Genetic transformation of Spizellomyces punctatus, a resource for studying chytrid biology and evolutionary cell biology

    Edgar M Medina, Kristyn A Robinson ... Nicolas E Buchler
    Spizellomycespunctatusis a genetically tractable chytrid and model organism for comparative cell biology for understanding evolution of the cell cycle, actin dynamics, and cellularization in fungi and early eukaryotes.

    Top-down machine learning approach for high-throughput single-molecule analysis

    David S White, Marcel P Goldschen-Ohm ... Baron Chanda
    A new analysis algorithm (DISC) enables accurate analysis of data from high-throughput single-molecule paradigms and reveals a non-cooperative binding mechanism of cyclic nucleotide-binding domains from HCN ion channels.

    Expansion microscopy of C. elegans

    Chih-Chieh (Jay) Yu, Nicholas C Barry ... Edward S Boyden
    Fixed, intact animals of C. elegans can be physically expanded with high isotropy, to enable super-resolved imaging of general proteins and nucleic acids throughout the organism, on conventional microscopes.

    Collective forces of tumor spheroids in three-dimensional biopolymer networks

    Christoph Mark, Thomas J Grundy ... Ben Fabry
    The forces that multicellular tumor aggregates exert on their environment lead to non-linear, scale-invariant tissue deformations far away from the tumor, which can be exploited to quantify its collective contractility.

    DASC, a sensitive classifier for measuring discrete early stages in clathrin-mediated endocytosis

    Xinxin Wang, Zhiming Chen ... Gaudenz Danuser
    A new user-intervention-free classification, using single-fluorescent markers, measures conventionally unmeasureable phenotypes in early stages during clathrin-mediated endocytosis.

    A single-parasite transcriptional atlas of Toxoplasma Gondii reveals novel control of antigen expression

    Yuan Xue, Terence C Theisen ... John C Boothroyd
    Single-cell RNA-sequencing resolves the transcriptional landscape of asexual development in Toxoplasma gondii, revealing concerted genetic programs to Plasmodiumfalciparum and a novel transcriptional factor that controls antigen switching.

    A calibrated optogenetic toolbox of stable zebrafish opsin lines

    Paride Antinucci, Adna Dumitrescu ... Claire Wyart
    Generation of stable transgenic opsin lines together with in vivo calibration of their efficacy using behavioural and electrophysiological assays constitutes a novel optogenetic toolkit in zebrafish.

    Building customizable auto-luminescent luciferase-based reporters in plants

    Arjun Khakhar, Colby G Starker ... Daniel F Voytas
    A fungal bioluminescence pathway can be reconstituted in planta to create luminescence in many plant species without external substrate addition, and be used to design customizable reporters of gene-expression.
