Piezo1 activity within keratinocytes slows healing of wounded skin via dynamic channel enrichment at regions of the wound edge, causing localized retraction and thus hindering keratinocyte migration during wound healing.
By controlling the SUMOylation of the protein CAR-1, the aging-regulating pathways downstream of the Insulin/IGF signaling cascade and of the germ cells of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans are integrated.
Incidental experiences can lead to lasting category knowledge, demonstrating that humans forage for information to acquire and consolidate new knowledge even when learning is not strictly necessary for success on an ongoing task.

Multiple axonal guidance receptors control the local and selective translation of mRNAs by binding to ribosomes, specific mRNAs and RNA-binding proteins.

A combination of single-cell analysis, genomics, and simulations shows that a glutamine-rich low-complexity sequence in the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex senses transient intracellular acidification as a signal for cells to switch their global transcriptional program.

A fluoroquinolone resistant variant of Salmonella Typhi has emerged that is likely to be widespread in the Indian subcontinent; therefore fluoroquinolones should not be recommended for empirical typhoid fever therapy in this setting.

In cooperatively breeding Damaraland mole-rats, transitioning to 'queen' results in extensive gene regulatory and morphological remodeling, but also costs to skeletal integrity that scale with reproductive investment.
Carriage of MDR S. Typhi H58 sublineages that also cause acute disease provides understanding of the transmission dynamics of typhoid fever and maintenance of local pathogen populations in Kenya children.
The LINE-1 retrotransposon protein, ORF1p, forms a condensate on RNA that is essential for retrotransposition, and may explain cis-preference through a co-translational assembly mechanism.
