    Structural basis of nucleic-acid recognition and double-strand unwinding by the essential neuronal protein Pur-alpha

    Janine Weber, Han Bao ... Dierk Niessing
    The crystal structure of Pur-alpha in complex with DNA reveals its molecular mechanisms of nucleic-acid binding and unwinding, allowing for a better understanding of its essential role in neurons.

    No relationship between frontal alpha asymmetry and depressive disorders in a multiverse analysis of five studies

    Aleksandra Kołodziej, Mikołaj Magnuski ... Aneta Brzezicka
    A multiverse approach consisting of 270 analyses on five independent studies fails to replicate the most common electrophysiological indicator of depression, which is asymmetry of alpha power in frontal regions.

    Cryo-EM structure of alpha-synuclein fibrils

    Ricardo Guerrero-Ferreira, Nicholas MI Taylor ... Henning Stahlberg
    The alpha-synuclein fibril structure reported here buries residues 50-57 at the interface between its two protofilaments, suggesting that familial Parkinson's disease associated mutations in these residues lead to a structure not compatible with the one presented here.

    Estrogen receptor alpha in the brain mediates tamoxifen-induced changes in physiology in mice

    Zhi Zhang, Jae Whan Park ... Stephanie M Correa
    Estrogen receptor alpha in the hypothalamus is required for the effects of chronic tamoxifen treament on gene expression, thermoregulation, bone, and movement in mice.

    Event-related modulation of alpha rhythm explains the auditory P300-evoked response in EEG

    Alina Studenova, Carina Forster ... Vadim Nikulin
    The decrease in alpha rhythm amplitude in the parietal regions after the presentation of a deviant auditory stimulus gives rise to a part of the P300-evoked response.

    Collagen polarization promotes epithelial elongation by stimulating locoregional cell proliferation

    Hiroko Katsuno-Kambe, Jessica L Teo ... Alpha S Yap
    Integrin- and ERK signaling stimulates mammary epithelial cell proliferation when extracellular collagen condenses, causing asymmetric growth of multicellular aggregates that is necessary for elongation during branching morphogenesis.

    Alpha/beta power decreases track the fidelity of stimulus-specific information

    Benjamin James Griffiths, Stephen D Mayhew ... Simon Hanslmayr
    Neural representations of stimulus-specific information increase in fidelity as the power of alpha/beta activity decreases, suggesting that alpha/beta power decreases reflect a domain-general mechanism that supports information representation.

    Distinct roles of forward and backward alpha-band waves in spatial visual attention

    Andrea Alamia, Lucie Terral ... Rufin VanRullen
    Covert visual attention modulates alpha-band traveling waves propagating from frontal to occipital regions in both hemispheres, yet it modulates waves propagating in the opposite direction (occipital to frontal) only in the presence of visual stimulation.

    Auditory cortical alpha/beta desynchronization prioritizes the representation of memory items during a retention period

    Nathan Weisz, Nadine Gabriele Kraft, Gianpaolo Demarchi
    Top-down mediated decreases of beta activity in auditory cortex prior to a predictable distractor in an auditory working memory task is associated with increased representation of to-be-memorized information.

    Stereospecific lasofoxifene derivatives reveal the interplay between estrogen receptor alpha stability and antagonistic activity in ESR1 mutant breast cancer cells

    David J Hosfield, Sandra Weber ... Sean W Fanning
    Effective antiestrogens engage a new structural interaction to improve therapeutic antagonism in hormone-resistant breast cancer cells expressing Y537S estrogen receptor alpha.
