    Gq activity- and β-arrestin-1 scaffolding-mediated ADGRG2/CFTR coupling are required for male fertility

    Dao-Lai Zhang, Yu-Jing Sun ... Jin-Peng Sun
    ADGRG2, an orphan GPCR, when coupled to CFTR via a regional Gq signaling on the apical membrane, acts to regulate efferent duct fluid reabsorption making it essential for male fertility.

    Feeding state-dependent regulation of developmental plasticity via CaMKI and neuroendocrine signaling

    Scott J Neal, Asuka Takeishi ... Piali Sengupta
    CaMKI and neuroendocrine signaling integrate information about food status to regulate a developmental decision in C. elegans.

    Targeting light-gated chloride channels to neuronal somatodendritic domain reduces their excitatory effect in the axon

    Jessica E Messier, Hongmei Chen ... Mingshan Xue
    A high axonal chloride concentration explains why activation of light-gated chloride channels causes neurotransmitter release, and a novel hybrid somatodendritic targeting motif ameliorates this phenomenon and improves their inhibitory function.

    ON selectivity in the Drosophila visual system is a multisynaptic process involving both glutamatergic and GABAergic inhibition

    Sebastian Molina-Obando, Juan Felipe Vargas-Fique ... Marion Silies
    A fundamental visual computation, the establishment of ON selectivity, is established across distributed circuits, allowing for more robust and flexible coding than suggested by core circuit motifs.

    Somatostatin-expressing parafacial neurons are CO2/H+ sensitive and regulate baseline breathing

    Colin M Cleary, Brenda M Milla ... Daniel K Mulkey
    Cellular and chemogenetic approaches identify a novel mode of chemotransduction involving regulation of basal breathing by CO2/H+-dependent disinhibition.

    CNGA3 acts as a cold sensor in hypothalamic neurons

    Viktor V Feketa, Yury A Nikolaev ... Elena O Gracheva
    CNGA3 is a cold-potentiated ion channel that confers cold sensitivity to mouse hypothalamic neurons, whereas CNGA3 from hibernating ground squirrels is cold-insensitive.

    Identification of TMEM206 proteins as pore of PAORAC/ASOR acid-sensitive chloride channels

    Florian Ullrich, Sandy Blin ... Thomas J Jentsch
    TMEM206 proteins are identified as constituting the pore of the widely expressed acid-activated chloride channel PAORAC/ASOR, which is important in acid toxicity.

    The computation of directional selectivity in the Drosophila OFF motion pathway

    Eyal Gruntman, Sandro Romani, Michael B Reiser
    ON and OFF visual motion is computed with the same algorithm despite differences in circuit architecture.
