    Action of CMG with strand-specific DNA blocks supports an internal unwinding mode for the eukaryotic replicative helicase

    Lance Langston, Mike O’Donnell
    The CMG complex, the replicative helicase in eukaryotes, uses a different mechanism from bacterial and viral helicases by engaging both strands of parental DNA with substantial force and unwinding the duplex within the central channel of CMG.

    A tissue-specific, Gata6-driven transcriptional program instructs remodeling of the mature arterial tree

    Marta Losa, Victor Latorre ... Nicoletta Bobola
    The transcription factor GATA6 selects the embryonic vessels that will be reorganized into the major thoracic arteries by promoting local differentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells.

    Nutritional control of body size through FoxO-Ultraspiracle mediated ecdysone biosynthesis

    Takashi Koyama, Marisa A Rodrigues ... Christen K Mirth
    In Drosophila melanogaster, nutrition controls body size by acting through the Forkhead Box class O (FoxO)/Ultraspiracle complex to regulate nutrition-sensitive ecdysone biosynthesis, thereby controlling the switch to stop growth.

    β-Carotene accelerates the resolution of atherosclerosis in mice

    Ivan Pinos, Johana Coronel ... Jaume Amengual
    Vitamin A formation from β-carotene promotes an anti-inflammatory environment and remodeling of atherosclerotic lesions during the healing of atherosclerosis.

    The influence of task outcome on implicit motor learning

    Hyosub E Kim, Darius E Parvin, Richard B Ivry
    During a sensorimotor perturbation, task outcome may serve as a gain on implicit adaptation or provide a distinct error signal for a second, independent implicit learning process.

    Cohabiting family members share microbiota with one another and with their dogs

    Se Jin Song, Christian Lauber ... Rob Knight
    Research on humans and dogs reveals that the communities of microorganisms found on the skin, on the tongue and in the intestine are affected differently by age and cohabitation.

    FOXP2 confers oncogenic effects in prostate cancer

    Xiaoquan Zhu, Chao Chen ... Yanyang Zhao
    FOXP2, encoding a forkhead-box transcription factor regarded as vital to proper development of human speech, was revealed to have an oncogenic potential and activate MET signaling in prostate cancer.

    DMRT1 is a testis-determining gene in rabbits and is also essential for female fertility

    Emilie Dujardin, Marjolaine André ... Maëlle Pannetier
    The absence of DMRT1 induces a male-to-female sex reversal in XY rabbits and complete infertility in both sexes.

    Mapping and analysis of Caenorhabditis elegans transcription factor sequence specificities

    Kamesh Narasimhan, Samuel A Lambert ... Timothy R Hughes
    Protein binding microarrays highlight the diversification of DNA-binding motifs for the nuclear hormone receptor and C2H2 zinc finger transcription factor families, and reveal unexpected diversity in motifs for the T-box and DM families.
