Synaptotagmin-7 acts synergistically with synaptotagmin-1 by placing vesicles close to the plasma membrane within reach of the SNARE/Munc13-complex, supporting their priming and setting the stage for fast and slow fusion.

In Drosophila, the planar cell polarity protein Flamingo is required by winners to maintain their status during cell competition in multiple models as they compete to occupy excessive territory within wildtype tissues.
Diversified genetic and transcriptional changes in parallel evolved Escherichia coli populations for improved growth revealed that the evolution complementing genome reduction was like all roads leading to Rome.
