Juvenile and adult metabolism are constrained from evolving independently from each other even in a species that lacks developmental continuity between juvenile and adult organs.

Pleiotropy of adaptive clones isolated from diverse experimental environment.

Clonal development, but not aggregation, promotes the transition of Darwinian individuality from cells to groups, emphasizing the fundamental role of initial multicellular life cycles in the evolution of multicellularity.

A computational approach examines the roles of splicing factors and their association with evolutionary change in splicing.

Recent findings about the possible intercellular signalling role of glutamate, GABA, and melatonin might help to establish hypotheses concerning the evolutionary factors that caused intercellular organisms to use specific molecules in intercellular signalling.

Investigation of regulatory network topology reveals latent design principles of multistable phenotypic landscape.

Cryo-electron microscopy reveals previously undescribed structural features of choanoflagellate flagella and provides new insights into flagellar evolution.

β-catenin, a key effector of the Wnt signaling pathway, is transported into the nucleus via a direct interaction between its PY-NLS and TNPO1 offering new potential targets for cancer therapeutics.

Mechanochemical coupling between interfacial force and biosurfactant kinetics can coordinate large-scale material transport in primitive life forms, suggesting a new principle to engineer self-organized microbial communities.

A new bacterium isolated from an underground stream shows a novel multicellularity by self-organizing its filamentous cells like a liquid crystal and accommodating daughter cells in a sequential manner, which would be a new extant model of prokaryotic multicellularity.
