    SARS-CoV-2 requires cholesterol for viral entry and pathological syncytia formation

    David W Sanders, Chanelle C Jumper ... Clifford P Brangwynne
    A high-throughput microscopy screen for drugs that modulate SARS-CoV-2 spike-mediated membrane fusion identifies an essential role for cholesterol in both virus entry and syncytia formation.

    Emergence of planar cell polarity from the interplay of local interactions and global gradients

    Divyoj Singh, Sriram Ramaswamy ... Mohd Suhail Rizvi
    A minimal mathematical model can explain the emergence of planar cell polarity in epithelial tissues using only three free parameters, namely the rate of protein binding to cell membrane, the intracellular protein concentration, and the steepness of tissue-level gradients.

    Evolution of the complex transcription network controlling biofilm formation in Candida species

    Eugenio Mancera, Isabel Nocedal ... Alexander D Johnson
    The transcription networks controlling biofilm formation in Candida species exhibit 'structural' similarities, but show gradual substitutions of transcription regulators and frequent changes in target genes.

    Price equation captures the role of drug interactions and collateral effects in the evolution of multidrug resistance

    Erida Gjini, Kevin B Wood
    A simple mathematical model reveals that antibiotic interactions and collateral effects of evolution are inseparable drivers of multidrug resistance linked by the well-known Price equation from evolutionary theory.

    Small RNAs from mitochondrial genome recombination sites are incorporated into T. gondii mitoribosomes

    Sabrina Tetzlaff, Arne Hillebrand ... Christian Schmitz-Linneweber
    Sequences at mitochondrial genome recombination sites are dually used as mRNAs and as rRNAs in actively translating mitoribosomes of T. gondii.

    Notch signaling restricts FGF pathway activation in parapineal cells to promote their collective migration

    Lu Wei, Amir Al Oustah ... Myriam Roussigné
    Notch signaling controls the collective migration of parapineal cells through its capacity to restrict FGF pathway activation to a few leading cells.

    Microsecond interaural time difference discrimination restored by cochlear implants after neonatal deafness

    Nicole Rosskothen-Kuhl, Alexa N Buck ... Jan WH Schnupp
    Early deaf human CI users are often insensitive to sub-millisecond interaural time differences (ITDs); however, with synchronized CIs, early deafened rats learned to lateralize small ITDs near 50 µs.

    Binding affinity landscapes constrain the evolution of broadly neutralizing anti-influenza antibodies

    Angela M Phillips, Katherine R Lawrence ... Michael M Desai
    CR9114, one of the most broadly neutralizing anti-influenza antibodies characterized to date, acquires affinity to divergent HA subtypes sequentially, due to higher order interactions between the nested sets of mutations required for binding each distinct subtype.

    Sequence structure organizes items in varied latent states of working memory neural network

    Qiaoli Huang, Huihui Zhang, Huan Luo
    Items at different positions of a sequence are maintained in distinct latent states of working memory system and are reactivated in reverse order over time, which is further related to recency effect in memory behavior.

    Resource-rational account of sequential effects in human prediction

    Arthur Prat-Carrabin, Florent Meyniel, Rava Azeredo da Silveira
    A proposed model of optimal inference under cognitive costs accounts for human sequential effects, including subtle patterns of attractive and repulsive influence of past observations, in a binary prediction task across a wide range of stimulus conditions.
