    MicroRNA-218 instructs proper assembly of hippocampal networks

    Seth R Taylor, Mariko Kobayashi ... Giordano Lippi
    MicroRNA-218 is required in both excitatory and inhibitory neurons of the developing hippocampus to regulate intrinsic and network excitability.

    Colour polymorphism associated with a gene duplication in male wood tiger moths

    Melanie N Brien, Anna Orteu ... Johanna Mappes
    A complex colour polymorphism which links colour with behavioural and life-history traits is associated with a single gene duplication in male wood tiger moths.

    Allosteric regulation of kinase activity in living cells

    Shivani Sujay Godbole, Nikolay V Dokholyan
    Protein kinase dysregulation, implicated in various diseases via cell signaling pathways, can be therapeutically and experimentally managed through allosteric modulation, facilitated by a dynamic network of interactions, with computational techniques enabling precise control in live systems.

    Conserved biophysical compatibility among the highly variable germline-encoded regions shapes TCR-MHC interactions

    Christopher T Boughter, Martin Meier-Schellersheim
    A comprehensive computational study of germline-encoded T cell receptor CDR loops and MHC alpha-helices finds limited evidence for evolutionary conserved interactions, and instead suggests broad biophysical compatibility guides the interactions between the two proteins.

    Temporally specific gene expression and chromatin remodeling programs regulate a conserved Pdyn enhancer

    Robert A Phillips, Ethan Wan ... Jeremy J Day
    Identification of activity-dependent transcriptional changes in striatal neurons reveals a conserved functional enhancer for prodynorphin.

    Persistence of intact HIV-1 proviruses in the brain during antiretroviral therapy

    Weiwei Sun, Yelizaveta Rassadkina ... Mathias Lichterfeld
    Genome-intact HIV-1 proviruses were detected in autopsy samples from the brain of ART-treated persons living with HIV, indicating that the virus can persist in the central nervous system.

    A reductionist paradigm for high-throughput behavioural fingerprinting in Drosophila melanogaster

    Hannah Jones, Jenny A Willis ... Giorgio F Gilestro
    Coccinella, an open-source framework, combines real-time tracking on microcomputers with statistical learning, optimising behaviour analysis in Drosophila melanogaster while surpassing other advanced systems in throughput and performance.

    A mechanistic insight into sources of error of visual working memory in multiple sclerosis

    Ali Motahharynia, Ahmad Pourmohammadi ... Mehdi Sanayei
    Imprecision in decoding information and swap error, that is, mistakenly reporting a non-target feature, contributes to working memory deficit in the multiple sclerosis population.
