    PerTurboID, a targeted in situ method reveals the impact of kinase deletion on its local protein environment in the cytoadhesion complex of malaria-causing parasites

    Heledd Davies, Hugo Belda ... Moritz Treeck
    A new mass spectrometry-based method to identify and quantify changes in a subcellular local protein environment shows the impact of deletion of a kinase the human malaria parasites export into the host cell.

    Rodent ultrasonic vocal interaction resolved with millimeter precision using hybrid beamforming

    Max L Sterling, Ruben Teunisse, Bernhard Englitz
    The accuracy of the Hybrid Vocalization Localizer (HyVL) brings a revolution to the study of social vocalizations of rodents and other animals, where vocalizations often occur in close proximity, and will empower downstream analysis of sequence and semantic analyses.

    Using adversarial networks to extend brain computer interface decoding accuracy over time

    Xuan Ma, Fabio Rizzoglio ... Ann Kennedy
    Incorporating cycle-consistency loss into a generative adversarial network creates a high-performance and robust 'aligner' of neural population activity, permitting a fixed intracortical brain computer interface to be used for months without recalibration and without requiring inference of a latent manifold.

    Optogenetic manipulation of neuronal and cardiomyocyte functions in zebrafish using microbial rhodopsins and adenylyl cyclases

    Hanako Hagio, Wataru Koyama ... Masahiko Hibi
    Functional assays using zebrafish reveal that various microbial channelrhodopsins, guanylyl cyclase rhodopsin, and photoactivated adenylyl cyclases function as potent optogenetic tools, effectively controlling neural activity and cardiac function in zebrafish.

    Optogenetic manipulation of Gq- and Gi/o-coupled receptor signaling in neurons and heart muscle cells

    Hanako Hagio, Wataru Koyama ... Masahiko Hibi
    Animal G-protein-coupled bistable rhodopsins can regulate Gq- and Gi-mediated signaling in a light-dependent manner in neurons and cardiomyocytes, making them useful for analyzing the roles of GPCR signaling in vivo.
