A mathematical model of pathogen within-host dynamics and experimental validations elucidates the interplay between immune response, damage and pathogen proliferation, highlighting the limitations of current experimental proxies and proposing new methods to better understand host resistance and disease tolerance.
Upstream open reading frames (uORFs) function as regulatory elements that buffer translation variability, stabilizing protein expression across animal developmental stages and evolutionary timescales.
A coiled-coil-based transduction mechanism is identified for a serine/threonine phosphatase that controls a bacterial stress response, suggesting that phosphatases are part of a modularly exchangeable toolkit for bacterial signaling.
During visual search, the choice of where to look next is biased to a remarkable degree by the location and color histories of recently viewed target stimuli.

M. tuberculosis produces a copper binding diisonitrile chalkophore to maintain the copper-dependent respiratory oxidase during infection, identifying a pathogen strategy that defends oxidative phosphorylation against host attack.
