    Kinetic sculpting of the seven stripes of the Drosophila even-skipped gene

    Augusto Berrocal, Nicholas C Lammers ... Michael B Eisen
    Live quantitative monitoring of transcriptional bursting reveals that enhancers responding to different regulators use the same kinetic strategy to produce a complex composite pattern of developmental expression.

    Growth cone-localized microtubule organizing center establishes microtubule orientation in dendrites

    Xing Liang, Marcela Kokes ... Kang Shen
    In Caenorhabditis elegans, dendrites establish their unique microtubule polarity by localizing an organizing center behind the growing tip.

    E proteins sharpen neurogenesis by modulating proneural bHLH transcription factors’ activity in an E-box-dependent manner

    Gwenvael Le Dréau, René Escalona ... Elisa Marti
    Rather than acting as passive and neutral co-factors for proneural proteins, E proteins play an active role in modulating the way the distinct proneural proteins instruct neurogenesis.

    A DARPin-based molecular toolset to probe gephyrin and inhibitory synapse biology

    Benjamin FN Campbell, Antje Dittmann ... Shiva K Tyagarajan
    Anti-gephyrin synthetic protein binders were screened and developed to specifically and robustly detect gephyrin protein and gephyrin-interacting protein partners in the mouse brain, generating a useful tool set for neuroscience.

    The Mycobacterium ulcerans toxin mycolactone causes destructive Sec61-dependent loss of the endothelial glycocalyx and vessel basement membrane to drive skin necrosis

    Louise Tzung-Harn Hsieh, Belinda S Hall ... Rachel E Simmonds
    The secreted toxin mycolactone has severe effects on the cells lining blood vessels that will play a critical role in the development of swelling in Buruli ulcer disease.
