    Voluntary and involuntary contributions to perceptually guided saccadic choices resolved with millisecond precision

    Emilio Salinas, Benjamin R Steinberg ... Terrence R Stanford
    Looking away from a salient visual stimulus pits the reflexive urge to look toward it against the voluntary intention not to, and this conflict is resolved within tens of milliseconds.

    Spectral signature and behavioral consequence of spontaneous shifts of pupil-linked arousal in human

    Ella Podvalny, Leana E King, Biyu J He
    Fluctuations of spectral power in large-scale cortical networks shape behavior in a perceptual decision-making task through arousal-linked and arousal-independent mechanisms.

    Temporal context and latent state inference in the hippocampal splitter signal

    Éléonore Duvelle, Roddy M Grieves, Matthijs AA van der Meer
    A synthesis of 20+ years of experimental studies on 'splitter cells' in the hippocampus reveals that signature properties of (1) temporal context models and (2) latent state inference are both needed to account for the data.

    A visual pathway for skylight polarization processing in Drosophila

    Ben J Hardcastle, Jaison J Omoto ... Mark A Frye
    Circuit tracing and in vivo calcium imaging reveals neurons conveying polarized light information from photoreceptors to the central brain, transforming patterns in the sky into a directional cue for navigation.

    Endogenous hydrogen peroxide positively regulates secretion of a gut-derived peptide in neuroendocrine potentiation of the oxidative stress response in Caenorhabditis elegans

    Qi Jia, Drew Young ... Derek Sieburth
    Stress-regulated secretion of an intestinal peptide positively regulates the antioxidant response by promoting neuropeptide release from the nervous system, defining a gut-to-brain-to-gut endocrine axis in the oxidative stress response.

    Target DNA bending by the Mu transpososome promotes careful transposition and prevents its reversal

    James R Fuller, Phoebe A Rice
    Biochemical data demonstrate that the conformation of the target site DNA can dramatically modulate the kinetics and directionality of the otherwise isoenergetic transposition reaction of DDE transposases.

    Evolution of sexual conflict in scorpionflies

    Agnieszka Soszyńska-Maj, Ewa Krzemińska ... Wiesław Krzemiński
    The fossil record of abdominal modifications in male scorpionflies documents a relatively late evolution of oppressive behaviour toward a female during mating and suggest degree of sexual coercion greater in Eocene than in any other known scorpionfly, extinct or extant.

    Intronic enhancer region governs transcript-specific Bdnf expression in rodent neurons

    Jürgen Tuvikene, Eli-Eelika Esvald ... Tõnis Timmusk
    An evolutionarily conserved neuron-specific and stimulus-dependent enhancer region downstream of the Bdnf exon III regulates the expression of Bdnf transcripts starting from the upstream 5' exons.

    Nuclear pore heterogeneity influences HIV-1 infection and the antiviral activity of MX2

    Melissa Kane, Stephanie V Rebensburg ... Paul D Bieniasz
    Comprehensive investigation reveals the variability and importance of the nuclear pore complex in HIV-1 infection and the activity of the antiretroviral protein, MX2.
