Among the factors that predict fitness in wild baboons, dominance rank in males, but not in females, is the best predictor of epigenetic aging.

The helical bacterium Helicobacter pylori patterns cell wall synthesis using two distinct cytoskeletal proteins, CcmA and MreB, to achieve its characteristic shape.

Integration of clinical patient data, pathogen information and a multi-omic analysis of the gut microbiome reveals key determinants of disease in C. difficile-colonized patients.

The first postnatal week ends with the development of perisomatic innervation and with an abrupt switch in the representation of self-motion in the region CA1 of the mouse hippocampus.

GNOM controls both auxin transport and auxin signaling to coordinate tissue cell polarity during vein patterning in plants.

Phylogenomics of sea urchins clarifies their origins and diversification history, reveals surprising discrepancies with their rich fossil record, and serves as basis to explore the sensitivity of time calibration analysis.

SAC9 prevents the accumulation of PI(4,5)P₂ in intracellular compartments, thereby contributing to clathrin-mediated endocytosis at the plasma membrane and regulating the cortical localization of its protein partner SH3P2.

Contrary to the high absolute number of white-eyes in other parts of the world, the Indonesian archipelago is the center of phylogenetic diversity of this great speciator.

A new hominin species found in a South African cave is part of one of the most unusual hominin fossil assemblages on record.

Cells adapt to extracellular hypertonicities using regulatory volume increase (RVI), and TNFR1-mediated NFkB activation is indispensable for RVI, but the increased cytoplasmic macromolecular crowding can inhibit TNFR1 signaling and prevent RVI at severe hypertonicities.
