    Fast turnover of genome transcription across evolutionary time exposes entire non-coding DNA to de novo gene emergence

    Rafik Neme, Diethard Tautz
    Deep sequencing of transcriptomes from closely related taxa shows that the whole genome can become subject to evolutionary testing within a short time frame via de novo evolution of genes.

    Inflammatory osteolysis is regulated by site-specific ISGylation of the scaffold protein NEMO

    Naga Suresh Adapala, Gaurav Swarnkar ... Yousef Abu-Amer
    Site-specific modification of NEMO facilitates RANKL signal specificity in myeloid progenitors and serves as a potential target to modulate inflammatory osteolysis through ISG15-dependent autophagy.

    How HIV-1 Nef hijacks the AP-2 clathrin adaptor to downregulate CD4

    Xuefeng Ren, Sang Yoon Park ... James H Hurley
    The structure of the Nef:AP-2 complex has been determined and used as the basis of a model that explains how HIV-1 Nef downregulates the CD4 receptor from the surface of the infected cells.

    Comparative genomics reveals insight into the evolutionary origin of massively scrambled genomes

    Yi Feng, Rafik Neme ... Laura F Landweber
    The comparison of three ciliate species that share complex pathways for natural genome editing allows capture of intermediate states in the acquisition of scrambled genes and elucidating a pathway for the origin and evolution of extremely rearranged chromosomes.

    Nemo-like kinase is a novel regulator of spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy

    Tiffany W Todd, Hiroshi Kokubu ... Janghoo Lim
    Nemo-like kinase is a key protein promoting the pathogenesis of spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy.

    The genome sequence of the colonial chordate, Botryllus schlosseri

    Ayelet Voskoboynik, Norma F Neff ... Stephen R Quake
    The Botryllus schlosseri genome yields insights into the evolution of hematopoiesis.

    Ageing compromises mouse thymus function and remodels epithelial cell differentiation

    Jeanette Baran-Gale, Michael D Morgan ... Georg A Holländer
    Thymus ageing is characterised by both compositional and transcriptional shifts amongst epithelial cells that perturb their differentiation, contribute to organ atrophy and ultimately impair immune function.

    Optogenetics and electron tomography for structure-function analysis of cochlear ribbon synapses

    Rituparna Chakrabarti, Lina María Jaime Tobón ... Carolin Wichmann
    Ultrastructural analysis of optogenetically stimulated inner hair cell ribbon synapses reveals normally sized synaptic vesicles and enhanced vesicle docking at the active zone membrane.
  1. Research: Gender bias in scholarly peer review

    Markus Helmer, Manuel Schottdorf ... Demian Battaglia
    Gender-bias in peer reviewing might persist even when gender-equity is reached because both male and female editors operate with a same-gender preference whose characteristics differ by editor-gender.

    Mannose receptor is an HIV restriction factor counteracted by Vpr in macrophages

    Jay Lubow, Maria C Virgilio ... Kathleen L Collins
    Interactions between HIV-1 Env and human mannose receptor enhance HIV entry but restrict viral egress and spread in the absence of Vpr.
