    Enhanced processivity and collective force production of kinesin-1 at low radial forces

    Andrew M Hensley, Ahmet Yildiz
    Reducing vertical forces reveals kinesin-1 as a robust motor capable of sustaining high loads and efficiently generating large collective forces with multiple motors.

    Neural categorization of visual words of alphabetic and non-alphabetic languages

    Guo Zheng, Shihui Han
    Explaining the neural mechanisms underlying language-based, spontaneous categorization of visual words of alphabetic and non-alphabetic languages by combining electroencephalography, magnetoencephalography, and a repetition suppression paradigm.

    Cluster size determines internal structure of transcription factories in human cells

    Massimiliano Semeraro, Giuseppe Negro ... Davide Marenduzzo
    In a polymer model of chromatin that explicitly incorporates different types of transcription factors, both specialised and mixed factories emerge naturally, with their composition governed by their size.

    FMRP regulates neuronal RNA granules containing stalled ribosomes, not where ribosomes stall

    Jewel T-Y Li, Mehdi Amiri ... Wayne S Sossin
    The loss of FMRP does not affect how neuronal ribosomes are stalled or where they are stalled, but reduces the number of neuronal RNA granules that contain stalled ribosomes.
