    Styxl2 regulates de novo sarcomere assembly by binding to non-muscle myosin IIs and promoting their degradation

    Xianwei Chen, Yanfeng Li ... Zhenguo Wu
    Styxl2, a sarcomeric muscle-specific pseudophosphatase in vertebrates, functions in sarcomere assembly by promoting protein degradation of non-muscle myosin IIs.

    Multimodal analysis of methylomics and fragmentomics in plasma cell-free DNA for multi-cancer early detection and localization

    Van Thien Chi Nguyen, Trong Hieu Nguyen ... Le Son Tran
    SPOT-MAS (screening for the presence of tumor by methylation and size) is an affordable and effective multi-cancer early detection test analyzing multiple features of circulating tumor DNA.

    Putting the theory into ‘burstlet theory’ with a biophysical model of burstlets and bursts in the respiratory preBötzinger complex

    Ryan S Phillips, Jonathan E Rubin
    A calcium-based mechanism of neural recruitment offers a biophysical framework that unifies recent findings on respiratory rhythm generation and pattern formation by the circuitry within the brainstem.

    Pupal behavior emerges from unstructured muscle activity in response to neuromodulation in Drosophila

    Amicia D Elliott, Adama Berndt ... Benjamin H White
    The elementary units of a fruit fly behavioral sequence are described at single-muscle resolution and shown to exhibit variability that is subject to neuromodulatory regulation.

    Predicting mutational routes to new adaptive phenotypes

    Peter A Lind, Eric Libby ... Paul B Rainey
    A combination of genetics, experimental evolution and mathematical modelling defines information necessary to predict the outcome of short-term adaptive evolution.

    Short-term synaptic dynamics control the activity phase of neurons in an oscillatory network

    Diana Martinez, Haroon Anwar ... Farzan Nadim
    The phase of a neuron in an oscillatory network can remain independent of network frequency when synaptic input strength and peak phase are adjusted in a frequency-dependent manner.

    Exploration of CTCF post-translation modifications uncovers Serine-224 phosphorylation by PLK1 at pericentric regions during the G2/M transition

    Brian C Del Rosario, Andrea J Kriz ... Jeannie T Lee
    The chromosome architectural protein, CTCF, is phosphorylated at Ser224 in a cell-cycle-dependent manner and abrogation of phosphorylation leads to a cell growth defect.

    Cooperation between a hierarchical set of recruitment sites targets the X chromosome for dosage compensation

    Sarah Elizabeth Albritton, Anna-Lena Kranz ... Sevinc Ercan
    Gene regulatory elements can target a chromatin regulatory complex to a single chromosome in the genome through hierarchical specification and long distance cooperation.

    Extensive cargo identification reveals distinct biological roles of the 12 importin pathways

    Makoto Kimura, Yuriko Morinaka ... Naoko Imamoto
    Transport-based high-throughput identification of cargo proteins specific to all 12 human importin-β family nuclear import receptors revealed biological processes that the cargo cohorts of each receptor are involved in.
