    Segment-specific axon guidance by Wnt/Fz signaling diversifies motor commands in Drosophila larvae

    Suguru Takagi, Shiina Takano ... Akinao Nose
    Rewiring the command neurons in the tactile circuit is sufficient to change the behavioral strategy of a whole animal, implying a 'plug-and-play' flexibility in sensorimotor circuits.

    Dimerization and dynamics of human angiotensin-I converting enzyme revealed by cryo-EM and MD simulations

    Jordan M Mancl, Xiaoyang Wu ... Wei-Jen Tang
    Structural and computational approaches uncover the molecular basis for dimerization, open-closed conformational transitions, and the dynamic behavior of the human angiotensin-I converting enzyme dimer.

    Forecasting protein evolution by integrating birth-death population models with structurally constrained substitution models

    David Ferreiro, Luis Daniel González-Vázquez ... Miguel Arenas
    Forecasting protein evolution in terms of folding stability using state-of-the-art population genetics and substitution models is feasible in rugged fitness landscapes, whereas forecasting exact amino acid sequences remains more challenging.

    Ubiquitination-activated TAB–TAK1–IKK–NF-κB axis modulates gene expression for cell survival in the lysosomal damage response

    Akinori Endo, Chikage Takahashi ... Yukiko Yoshida
    Ubiquitin accumulated on damaged lysosomes activates TAB–TAK1–IKK–NF-κB axis and remodels proteome through gene expression for cell survival and cell-cell communication.
    1. Neuroscience

    Online reinforcement learning of state representation in recurrent network supported by the power of random feedback and biological constraints

    Takayuki Tsurumi, Ayaka Kato ... Kenji Morita
    Recurrent neural network and its readout (cortex–striatum) can learn state representation and value using online random-weight feedback of temporal-difference reward-prediction-error (dopamine) through feedback alignment or biological non-negative-weight constraint-induced loose alignment.

    Conformational changes, excess area, and elasticity of the Piezo protein-membrane nanodome from coarse-grained and atomistic simulations

    Sneha Dixit, Frank Noé, Thomas R Weikl
    Piezo proteins induce a curved protein-membrane nanodome with an excess area of about 40 nm2 in tensionless membranes and resist tension-induced flattening with a force constant of about 60 pN/nm.
