    Dissociation rate compensation mechanism for budding yeast pioneer transcription factors

    Benjamin T Donovan, Hengye Chen ... Michael G Poirier
    The budding yeast transcription factors Reb1 and Cbf1 function as pioneer factors by slowly dissociating from nucleosomes, allowing them to target and unwrap nucleosomes efficiently to regulate transcription.

    Age-related decline in blood-brain barrier function is more pronounced in males than females in parietal and temporal regions

    Xingfeng Shao, Qinyang Shou ... Danny JJ Wang
    Sex differences in the age-related decline of blood-brain barrier function vary across brain regions, with a more pronounced decrease observed in males beginning in the early 60s.

    Notch/Her12 signalling modulates, motile/immotile cilia ratio downstream of Foxj1a in zebrafish left-right organizer

    Barbara Tavares, Raquel Jacinto ... Susana Santos Lopes
    Foxj1a makes cilia ultrastructurally motile, while Notch signalling stops cilia movement in Kupffer's vesicle.

    Mechanistic insights into a TIMP3-sensitive pathway constitutively engaged in the regulation of cerebral hemodynamics

    Carmen Capone, Fabrice Dabertrand ... Anne Joutel
    Extracellular matrix signaling constitutively regulates cerebral blood flow in both physiological and pathological settings.

    A connectome and analysis of the adult Drosophila central brain

    Louis K Scheffer, C Shan Xu ... Stephen M Plaza
    New reconstruction methods are used to create a publicly available dense reconstruction of the neurons and chemical synapses of central brain of Drosophila, with analysis of its graph properties.

    Imaging the fate of histone Cse4 reveals de novo replacement in S phase and subsequent stable residence at centromeres

    Jan Wisniewski, Bassam Hajj ... Carl Wu
    Internally tagged, functional Cse4/CENP-A/CenH3 histone variant is exclusively centromeric and stable through the budding yeast cell cycle after replacement in S phase.

    Cerebral blood flow and cerebrovascular reactivity are preserved in a mouse model of cerebral microvascular amyloidosis

    Leon P Munting, Marc Derieppe ... Louise van der Weerd
    The causal link between capillary amyloid‑β accumulation in the brain and cerebrovascular dysfunction, previously established in the Tg‑SwDI mouse model, is to be mitigated and remains to be fully uncovered.

    Concerted modification of nucleotides at functional centers of the ribosome revealed by single-molecule RNA modification profiling

    Andrew D Bailey, Jason Talkish ... Manuel Ares
    A method enabling identification of more than 100 RNA modifications in single ribosomal RNA molecules uncovers new classes of modified ribosomes.

    Building accurate sequence-to-affinity models from high-throughput in vitro protein-DNA binding data using FeatureREDUCE

    Todd R Riley, Allan Lazarovici ... Harmen J Bussemaker
    A biophysically principled algorithm can build quantitative models of protein-DNA binding specificity of unprecedented accuracy from a leading type of high-throughput in vitro binding data.

    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.
