    Recursive self-embedded vocal motifs in wild orangutans

    Adriano R Lameira, Madeleine E Hardus ... Marco Gamba
    Wild male orangutans produce long calls composed of two hierarchical layers, wherein isochronous sub-pulses occur within isochronous pulses, indicating that recursive vocal combinatorics are not exclusive to language among hominids.

    Analysis of the PcrA-RNA polymerase complex reveals a helicase interaction motif and a role for PcrA/UvrD helicase in the suppression of R-loops

    Inigo Urrutia-Irazabal, James R Ault ... Mark S Dillingham
    RNA polymerase recruits the PcrA DNA helicase via a conserved interaction motif in order to remove R-loops and prevent conflicts with replication.

    A deleterious Nav1.1 mutation selectively impairs telencephalic inhibitory neurons derived from Dravet Syndrome patients

    Yishan Sun, Sergiu P Paşca ... Ricardo E Dolmetsch
    A human cellular model of a prototypical form of intractable childhood epilepsy supports selective impairment of inhibitory neurons as a key pathophysiological mechanism.

    Stress induced gene expression drives transient DNA methylation changes at adjacent repetitive elements

    David Secco, Chuang Wang ... Ryan Lister
    Phosphate starvation in rice induces widespread, but transient, modulation of DNA methylation near stress responsive genes that is independent from the RNA-directed DNA methylation pathway.

    Drosophila TRIM32 cooperates with glycolytic enzymes to promote cell growth

    Simranjot Bawa, David S Brooks ... Erika R Geisbrecht
    TRIM32-mediated glycolytic flux generates precursors that are utilized for biomass production in non-dividing muscle, brain and tumor cells, demonstrating a universal metabolic function for TRIM32 in cell growth.

    Moderate nucleotide diversity in the Atlantic herring is associated with a low mutation rate

    Chungang Feng, Mats Pettersson ... Leif Andersson
    The Atlantic herring has the lowest mutation rate yet estimated in a vertebrate species and this partially explains its moderate nucleotide diversity given the large population size.
