    Tissue-specific modifier alleles determine Mertk loss-of-function traits

    Yemsratch T Akalu, Maria E Mercau ... Sourav Ghosh
    Current understanding of Mertk biology, such as in retinal degeneration and tumor immunity, is redefined by gene knockout in C57BL/6 mice.

    Electrocorticography is superior to subthalamic local field potentials for movement decoding in Parkinson’s disease

    Timon Merk, Victoria Peterson ... Wolf-Julian Neumann
    Advanced machine learning based brain signal decoding of grip-force as a proxy for movement vigor shows Parkinson's disease related performance reduction, suggestive of a loss of cortical vigor encoding in the absence of dopamine.

    A molecular mechanism for the generation of ligand-dependent differential outputs by the epidermal growth factor receptor

    Yongjian Huang, Jana Ognjenovic ... John Kuriyan
    Cryo-EM analysis of full-length human epidermal growth factor receptor provides a molecular explanation for how ligand-induced differential effect in the ligand-binding extracellular module tunes the transmembrane signaling mediated by epidermal growth factor receptor.

    Malaria parasites use a soluble RhopH complex for erythrocyte invasion and an integral form for nutrient uptake

    Marc A Schureck, Joseph E Darling ... Sanjay A Desai
    A high-resolution structure reveals how the RhopH complex traffics within Plasmodium-infected human erythrocytes to serve divergent, essential functions.

    The Shu complex prevents mutagenesis and cytotoxicity of single-strand specific alkylation lesions

    Braulio Bonilla, Alexander J Brown ... Kara A Bernstein
    The Shu complex enables lesion bypass of specific alkylation-induced DNA damage including abasic sites and 3-methyl-cytosine.

    Homo-oligomerization of the human adenosine A2A receptor is driven by the intrinsically disordered C-terminus

    Khanh Dinh Quoc Nguyen, Michael Vigers ... Songi Han
    The C-terminus of A2A receptor drives oligomer formation via an intricate network of disulfide bonds, hydrogen bonds, electrostatic interactions, and hydrophobic interactions, all of which are enhanced by depletion interactions.

    ACK1 and BRK non-receptor tyrosine kinase deficiencies are associated with familial systemic lupus and involved in efferocytosis

    Stephanie Guillet, Tomi Lazarov ... Frédéric Geissmann
    Loss-of-function variants of human ACK1 and BRK kinase underlie systemic lupus erythematosus in young patients from multiplex families and disrupt the anti-inflammatory response of macrophages to apoptotic cells.

    Differential TAM receptor–ligand–phospholipid interactions delimit differential TAM bioactivities

    Erin D Lew, Jennifer Oh ... Greg Lemke
    Signaling by TAM receptor tyrosine kinases requires the coincident engagement of a TAM ligand with both its receptor and the phospholipid phosphatidylserine.

    Thymic macrophages consist of two populations with distinct localization and origin

    Tyng-An Zhou, Hsuan-Po Hsu ... Ivan L Dzhagalov
    Thymic macrophages are unique phagocytes with antigen-presenting abilities that comprise a Timd4+ subset of embryonic origin located in the cortex and a Cx3cr1+ subset derived from adult hematopoietic stem cells residing in the medulla.
