    Oncometabolite D-2-Hydroxyglutarate enhances gene silencing through inhibition of specific H3K36 histone demethylases

    Ryan Janke, Anthony T Iavarone, Jasper Rine
    Mutations in budding yeast modeled after cancer-associated isocitrate dehydrogenase mutations lead to stabilization of heterochromatin and enhanced gene silencing through inhibition of specific histone demethylases by the oncometabolite D-2-hydroxyglutarate.

    MutS/MutL crystal structure reveals that the MutS sliding clamp loads MutL onto DNA

    Flora S Groothuizen, Ines Winkler ... Titia K Sixma
    Visualization of the sliding clamp in DNA mismatch repair shows how a transient complex is activated.

    Sterically confined rearrangements of SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein control cell invasion

    Esteban Dodero-Rojas, Jose N Onuchic, Paul Charles Whitford
    SARS-CoV-2 entry mechanism through membrane fusion is regulated by the spike protein glycosylation state.

    Piezo1 ion channels inherently function as independent mechanotransducers

    Amanda H Lewis, Jörg Grandl
    Mechanically activated Piezo1 ion channels, at physiologically relevant densities, behave as independent mechanotransducers, which we propose is essential for homogenous transduction of forces across the entire cell membrane.

    The His-Gly motif of acid-sensing ion channels resides in a reentrant ‘loop’ implicated in gating and ion selectivity

    Nate Yoder, Eric Gouaux
    The amino terminus of acid-sensing ion channel 1a forms a reentrant 'loop' that frames the lower pore and harbors a conserved 'His-Gly' motif implicated in gating and ion selectivity mechanisms.

    Discovering and deciphering relationships across disparate data modalities

    Joshua T Vogelstein, Eric W Bridgeford ... Cencheng Shen
    Multiscale Graph Correlation, an interpretable hypothesis test with strong theoretical guarantees for discerning relationships in complex data, requires about half the sample size as other methods, whilst maintaining computational tractability.

    Skin vasculature and hair follicle cross-talking associated with stem cell activation and tissue homeostasis

    Kefei Nina Li, Prachi Jain ... Tudorita Tumbar
    Hair follicle epithelium and skin vasculature remodeling are coordinated during quiescence, and their cross-talking is associated with the timing of stem cell activation.

    Postictal behavioural impairments are due to a severe prolonged hypoperfusion/hypoxia event that is COX-2 dependent

    Jordan S Farrell, Ismael Gaxiola-Valdez ... G Campbell Teskey
    Local tissue hypoxia follows seizures, is responsible for postictal behavioural dysfunction rather than the seizures per se and can be treated.
