    Separating phases of allopolyploid evolution with resynthesized and natural Capsella bursa-pastoris

    Tianlin Duan, Adrien Sicard ... Martin Lascoux
    A comparison between artificially created allopolyploids and natural ones reveals that the latter underwent significant evolutionary steps after their formation.

    Conformational heterogeneity of the BTK PHTH domain drives multiple regulatory states

    David Yin-wei Lin, Lauren E Kueffer ... Amy H Andreotti
    Multiple dynamic protein interactions converge to regulate the catalytic activity of the B cell kinase, BTK.

    DNA damage signaling in Drosophila macrophages modulates systemic cytokine levels in response to oxidative stress

    Fabian Hersperger, Tim Meyring ... Katrin Kierdorf
    Immune activation in Drosophila macrophages during oxidative stress is regulated by DNA damage signaling, which controls proinflammatory cytokine release and the susceptibility of the fly to oxidative stress.

    Molecular mechanisms of microbiome modulation by the eukaryotic secondary metabolite azelaic acid

    Ahmed A Shibl, Michael A Ochsenkühn ... Shady A Amin
    Characterization of the molecular mechanisms that enable azelaic acid, a secondary metabolite produced by photosynthetic organisms, to promote or inhibit different bacterial populations.

    Death by a thousand cuts through kinase inhibitor combinations that maximize selectivity and enable rational multitargeting

    Ian R Outhwaite, Sukrit Singh ... Markus A Seeliger
    Combinations of inhibitors can more selectively inhibit individual or multiple protein kinases than single inhibitors.

    Inhibitory CCK+ basket synapse defects in mouse models of dystroglycanopathy

    Jennifer N Jahncke, Daniel S Miller ... Kevin M Wright
    Loss of functional dystroglycan disrupts the formation and function of CCK+/CB1R+ inhibitory synapses in hippocampal CA1, resulting in reduced seizure thresholds in mouse models of dystroglycanopathy.

    Proteomic analysis shows decreased type I fibers and ectopic fat accumulation in skeletal muscle from women with PCOS

    Elisabet Stener-Victorin, Gustaw Eriksson ... Anna Benrick
    Elevated levels of ectopic fat and a decreased number of oxidative insulin-sensitive type I muscle fibers in skeletal muscle could lead to insulin resistance in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.

    Structural and mechanistic insights into ribosomal ITS2 RNA processing by nuclease-kinase machinery

    Jiyun Chen, Hong Chen ... Liang Liu
    The structures of full-length Las1-Grc3 complexes provide crucial insights into the activation mechanism of HEPN nuclease and the pathway of pre-rRNA processing in ribosome biosynthesis.

    Regulation of multiple signaling pathways promotes the consistent expansion of human pancreatic progenitors in defined conditions

    Luka Jarc, Manuj Bandral ... Anthony Gavalas
    The signaling requirements to decouple proliferation of pancreatic progenitors from differentiation were elucidated and employed for the reproducible expansion, under GMP-compliant conditions, of pancreatic progenitors derived from different human pluripotent stem cell lines.

    Acute stress reduces effortful prosocial behaviour

    Paul AG Forbes, Gökhan Aydogan ... Claus Lamm
    Participants under acute stress were less willing to exert a relatively low level of physical effort for actions that benefit another person compared to actions that benefit themselves.
