    Extinction risk and conservation of the world’s sharks and rays

    Nicholas K Dulvy, Sarah L Fowler ... William T White
    One-quarter of the Chondrichthyes have an elevated risk of extinction, mainly as a result of overfishing.

    Nuclear genetic regulation of the human mitochondrial transcriptome

    Aminah T Ali, Lena Boehme ... Alan Hodgkinson
    Common nuclear genetic variants are associated with fundamental biological processes occurring in human mitochondria and potentially point to novel roles for nuclear genes in transcriptional regulation of the mitochondrial genome.

    HIV-1 DNA predicts disease progression and post-treatment virological control

    James P Williams, Jacob Hurst ... John Frater
    Measuring HIV-1 DNA levels at the time of stopping antiretroviral therapy (when initiated during primary infection) predicts clinical progression and the time taken for plasma viraemia to become detectable.

    SOXF factors regulate murine satellite cell self-renewal and function through inhibition of β-catenin activity

    Sonia Alonso-Martin, Frédéric Auradé ... Frédéric Relaix
    A set of ex vivo and in vivo experiments, including genetic ablation and regeneration studies, identify a key regulatory function of SOXF factors in muscle stem cells in mice.

    Quantification of the pace of biological aging in humans through a blood test, the DunedinPoAm DNA methylation algorithm

    Daniel W Belsky, Avshalom Caspi ... Terrie E Moffitt
    Methylation pace of aging is a novel measure requiring only a blood sample that clinical-trial and observational studies can use to test if treatments modify how fast participants are aging.

    High social status males experience accelerated epigenetic aging in wild baboons

    Jordan A Anderson, Rachel A Johnston ... Jenny Tung
    Among the factors that predict fitness in wild baboons, dominance rank in males, but not in females, is the best predictor of epigenetic aging.

    Algal-fungal symbiosis leads to photosynthetic mycelium

    Zhi-Yan Du, Krzysztof Zienkiewicz ... Gregory M Bonito
    The capacity for symbiosis between photosynthetic microalgae and early diverging lineages fungi was demonstrated with microscopy and stable isotope exchange of carbon and nitrogen.
    1. Neuroscience

    Oligodendrocyte-encoded Kir4.1 function is required for axonal integrity

    Lucas Schirmer, Wiebke Möbius ... David H Rowitch
    Ultrastructural and loss-of-function experiments show that oligodendrocyte-encoded Kir4.1 is located near active axonal structures, including within myelin inner tongue, and has critical functions to promote axonal activity and preserve integrity.
    1. Neuroscience

    Circuits that encode and guide alcohol-associated preference

    Kristin M Scaplen, Mustafa Talay ... Karla R Kaun
    Alcohol modifies dopaminergic microcircuits required for acquisition and expression of sensory memories in Drosophila resulting in a shift in behavioral response from malleable to inflexible.

    Structural basis of Ca2+-dependent activation and lipid transport by a TMEM16 scramblase

    Maria E Falzone, Jan Rheinberger ... Alessio Accardi
    Structures of a TMEM16 phospholipid scramblase reveal that its Ca2+-dependent activation entails global conformational changes and how these rearrangements affect the membrane to enable transbilayer lipid transfer.
