    Human ORC/MCM density is low in active genes and correlates with replication time but does not delimit initiation zones

    Nina Kirstein, Alexander Buschle ... Aloys Schepers
    Replication origins are established throughout the genome with the exception of transcribed genes, and the local chromatin composition likely modulates the density of ORC and MCM as well as origin activation.

    The infection-tolerant white-footed deermouse tempers interferon responses to endotoxin in comparison to the mouse and rat

    Ana Milovic, Jonathan V Duong, Alan G Barbour
    Comparing the white-footed deermouse with mice and rats in an inflammation model reveals a means for the observed infection tolerance in this key animal reservoir for several human diseases.

    Mild myelin disruption elicits early alteration in behavior and proliferation in the subventricular zone

    Elizabeth A Gould, Nicolas Busquet ... Wendy B Macklin
    Mild myelin disruption leads to early axonal pathology, a novel pathological response in neural stem cells, regionally increased oligodendrocytes and altered behavior.

    Oscillatory hyperactivity and hyperconnectivity in young APOE-ɛ4 carriers and hypoconnectivity in Alzheimer’s disease

    Loes Koelewijn, Thomas M Lancaster ... Krish Singh
    Electrophysiology pinpoints brain function abnormalities in young people genetically at risk of developing Alzheimer's disease much later in life, supporting theories of initial hyperconnectivity driving eventual profound disconnection.

    Conserved noncoding transcription and core promoter regulatory code in early Drosophila development

    Philippe J Batut, Thomas R Gingeras
    Gene expression timing during Drosophila development is specified by multiple classes of RNA polymerase II core promoters, and the embryonic transcriptome includes thousands of evolutionarily conserved long noncoding RNAs.

    Early dysfunction and progressive degeneration of the subthalamic nucleus in mouse models of Huntington's disease

    Jeremy F Atherton, Eileen L McIver ... Mark D Bevan
    In mouse models of Huntington's disease, the subthalamic nucleus, which suppresses movements, also exhibits impaired glutamate homeostasis, NMDA receptor-dependent mitochondrial oxidant stress, firing disruption, and 30% neuronal loss.

    A dynamic mechanism for allosteric activation of Aurora kinase A by activation loop phosphorylation

    Emily F Ruff, Joseph M Muretta ... Nicholas M Levinson
    Phosphorylation of Aurora A does not trigger a population shift to the active state as previously thought, but instead switches the kinase on by tuning the structure and dynamics of a dynamically sampled subpopulation.

    MeCP2 in cholinergic interneurons of nucleus accumbens regulates fear learning

    Ying Zhang, Yi Zhu ... Xiao-Ming Li
    Robust fear learning deficits and decreased tonic activity of NAc cholinergic interneurons caused by depletion of MeCP2 could be attributed to an elevation in α2-containing GABAA receptors.

    Mir221/222 drive synovial hyperplasia and arthritis by targeting cell cycle inhibitors and chromatin remodeling components

    Fani Roumelioti, Christos Tzaferis ... George Kollias
    A novel in vivo role for miRNAs Mir221/222 in arthritogenic synovial fibroblasts and progression of arthritis is presented.
