Fluctuations in the availability of particles for binding can completely jeopardize yield in heterogeneous self-assembly.

Promotion of microtubule pausing by a kinetochore module controls meiotic spindle assembly in Caenorhabditis elegans oocytes.

Favipiravir, a novel nucleoside analogue, can clear a persistent norovirus infection in vivo through lethal mutagenesis.

Biased growth of microtubules in the advancing axon tip contributes to the uniform orientation of microtubules in mature axons, which is essential for proper neuronal functioning.

Dynactin acts as an anti-catastrophe factor that extends microtubule growth; posteriorly elucidating a new essential step in oskar mRNA localisation and providing a novel mechanism by which motor-dependent transport can amplify the polarity of MT networks.

Kinesin-4 KIF21B combines a processive motor activity with two non-motor microtubule-binding domains and an autoregulatory region to induce pausing of microtubule plus ends.

The budding yeast kinesin Kip2 is a polymerase that uses its processive motility in a positive feedback loop to promote microtubule growth.

The EB binding region defines the length of the protective cap that stabilizes growing microtubules.

The neural representation of position in the medial entorhinal cortex may be stabilized by synaptic connectivity across modules, which enforces coherent updates in their states.

Single-peaked tuning curves found in early sensory areas are more optimized for quick decoding than accuracy, while multi-peaked tuning curves (e.g. grid cells) give higher accuracy but only at longer time scales.
