Patients with Parkinson's disease can be trained to self-suppress beta bursts in subthalamic nucleus, which was accompanied by quicker reaction times when prompted to move but increased tremor.
Structures of the human ataxia-telangiectasia mutated (ATM) kinase alone and bound to the C-terminus of Nbs1 show the mechanisms underlying ATM autoinhibition and binding by a portion of the Mre11-Rad50-Nbs1 (MRN) activating complex.

A circuit involving Tacr1-expressing neurons in the spinal cord and the parabrachial nucleus controls how mice respond to a wide range of persistently painful stimuli.
Microtubule attachment fundamentally modifies kinesin's behavior by triggering a ‘clamshell’ opening of the nucleotide cleft, subsequently reversed by ATP binding, that couples to cargo translocation.
The viscous hydraulics of contracting endoplasmic reticulum networks challenge common solute transport theories, suggesting the contraction of peripheral sheets as a plausible driving mechanism.
