    Phagocytic ‘teeth’ and myosin-II ‘jaw’ power target constriction during phagocytosis

    Daan Vorselen, Sarah R Barger ... Mira Krendel
    During ingestion of antibody-coated targets, phagocytes probe and deform the target via Arp2/3-dependent protrusions and myosin-dependent constriction during cup closure.

    Systematic identification of cis-regulatory variants that cause gene expression differences in a yeast cross

    Kaushik Renganaath, Rockie Chong ... Frank W Albert
    Yeast promoters can harbor multiple natural DNA variants that influence gene expression, interact genetically, evolve under negative selection, alter transcription factor motifs, and remain challenging to predict.
