    Sweepstakes reproductive success via pervasive and recurrent selective sweeps

    Einar Árnason, Jere Koskela ... Bjarki Eldon
    Selective sweepstakes from pervasive positive selection, rather than demographic changes or random sweepstakes reproduction, is the primary determinant of reproductive skew and genetic diversity in the highly prolific Atlantic cod.
    1. Neuroscience

    DNL343 is an investigational CNS penetrant eukaryotic initiation factor 2B activator that prevents and reverses the effects of neurodegeneration caused by the integrated stress response

    Ernie Yulyaningsih, Jung H Suh ... Pascal E Sanchez
    DNL343, a brain-penetrant integrated stress response inhibitor, reduces neurodegeneration in mouse models and identifies biomarker candidates for assessing treatment responses in clinical settings.

    Target protein identification in live cells and organisms with a non-diffusive proximity tagging system

    Yingjie Sun, Changheng Li ... Youngnam N Jin
    Pup-On-target for Small molecule Target Identification Technology, POST-IT, is a revolutionary tool for accurately identifying protein targets of bioactive molecules in living cells and organisms, successfully identifying SEPHS2 and VPS37C as targets for dasatinib and hydroxychloroquine, respectively.

    The Candida albicans virulence factor candidalysin polymerizes in solution to form membrane pores and damage epithelial cells

    Charles M Russell, Katherine G Schaefer ... Francisco N Barrera
    The molecular mechanism that candidalysin uses to perforate membranes is unraveled, which opens the door to the rational design of inhibitors against candidiasis.

    Spreading of a mycobacterial cell-surface lipid into host epithelial membranes promotes infectivity

    CJ Cambier, Steven M Banik ... Carolyn R Bertozzi
    Applying bioorthogonal chemistry to the zebrafish/Mycobacterium marinum model of tuberculosis reveals that the virulence lipid PDIM must spread into epithelial cells in order for mycobacteria to establish infection.

    N-chlorination mediates protective and immunomodulatory effects of oxidized human plasma proteins

    Agnes Ulfig, Anton V Schulz ... Lars I Leichert
    N-chlorination, a reversible, oxidative modification, turns plasma proteins into holdase-like chaperones, potent activators of immune cells and pro-survival factors for phagocytic immune cells.
