Ablation of olfactory projection neurons in adult mice triggers sprouting of the apical dendrite of remaining neurons towards multiple nearby glomeruli and disrupts the odor map.

Computational modeling combined with biophysical and cellular experiments reveal that rapid binding to incomplete, partial microtubule binding sites facilitates tracking of the end-binding protein EB1 with growing microtubule plus-ends.

GapR-seq enables the global mapping of positive supercoiling in bacteria and yeast, revealing positive supercoils downstream of highly expressed genes and, in yeast, associated with centromeres, pericentromeres, telomeres, replication origins, and R-loops.

Endothelial cells express a soluble isoform of the L1CAM cell adhesion molecule that is generated by the splicing factor NOVA2 and induces angiogenesis, with relevant implications for ovarian cancer vascularization.

Analysis of the action of WDR5 inhibitors in leukemia cells reveals decreased ribosome inventory, impaired protein synthesis, induction of nucleolar stress, and activation of p53 via alternative splicing of MDM4.

Mechanosensory isolation of C. elegans nematodes independently induces homeostatic structural changes in the dendritic tree and differential response to mechanical stimulation, both these structural and behavioral outcomes are mediated by degenerins and do not affect presynaptic calcium dynamics.

Prokaryotic TRADD-N and Death-like adaptor domains in diverse predicted apoptosis and immune systems from multicellular prokaryotes and metazoans indicate the common origin of key apoptosis mechanisms required for the stabilization of multicellularity.

The new insights into the activation mechanism of Parkin E3 ligase could be useful for designing small-molecule activators against Parkinson’s disease.
