    Role of N343 glycosylation on the SARS-CoV-2 S RBD structure and co-receptor binding across variants of concern

    Callum M Ives, Linh Nguyen ... Elisa Fadda
    Viral evolution can lead to mutations that render specific glycosylation sites dispensable for folding and for supporting the protein's function, allowing changes in the shield, and in the immunogenic profile.

    A non-linear system patterns Rab5 GTPase on the membrane

    Alice Cezanne, Janelle Lauer ... Marino Zerial
    Both protein-protein and protein-lipid interactions are essential for Rab5 symmetry breaking at the early endosome.

    Point of View: Predictive regulation and human design

    Peter Sterling
    Why does the human regulatory system, which evolution tuned for small satisfactions, now constantly demand 'more'?

    Olfactory receptor neurons generate multiple response motifs, increasing coding space dimensionality

    Brian Kim, Seth Haney ... Mark A Stopfer
    The odor-elicited responses of olfactory receptor neurons consist of a discrete set of four spike pattern motifs, each with distinct adaptation properties, together amplifying distinctions between similar and temporally complex chemical inputs such as odor plumes.

    Structural determinants of voltage-gating properties in calcium channels

    Monica L Fernández-Quintero, Yousra El Ghaleb ... Bernhard E Flucher
    Structure modeling, site-directed mutagenesis, and current recordings revealed the mechanism by which stabilization of voltage sensors in the resting and activated states determines the gating properties of the CaV1.1 calcium channel.

    Cutting Edge: Collaboration gets the most out of software

    Andrew Morin, Ben Eisenbraun ... Piotr Sliz
    By centralizing many of the tasks associated with the upkeep of scientific software, SBGrid allows researchers to spend more of their time on research.

    Discriminating neural ensemble patterns through dendritic computations in randomly connected feedforward networks

    Bhanu Priya Somashekar, Upinder Singh Bhalla
    In feedforward networks with random connectivity, connection motifs underlying the detection of short clusters and activity sequences are likely to converge on a subset of postsynaptic neurons purely by chance.

    Science Forum: Wikidata as a knowledge graph for the life sciences

    Andra Waagmeester, Gregory Stupp ... Andrew I Su
    Wikidata is continuously-updated resource that could improve the efficiency and accuracy of research in many areas of the life and biomedical sciences.

    Stochastic parabolic growth promotes coexistence and a relaxed error threshold in RNA-like replicator populations

    Mátyás Paczkó, Eörs Szathmáry, András Szilágyi
    An individual-based model framework of sub-exponentially growing replicator systems suggests that parabolic dynamics could have been able to maintain genetic diversity and circumvent the error threshold problem during early evolution.
