Regulatory T cell suppress cytotoxic T cells in autoimmunity and cancer by taking up IL-2.

Human herpesvirus 6B can transition between telomere-integrated and free viral forms, and frequent telomere-loop-driven partial or complete viral genome excision events create mosaicism in germline carriers of inherited chromosomally integrated HHV-6B.

Ancient proteomes from tiny shell ornaments were successfully characterised for the first time, showing the unexpected use of mother-of-pearl from local riverine molluscs in both coastal and inland prehistoric sites.

A new method to infer the spatial history of genetic ancestors from a sequence of trees along a recombining genome.

Adolescent brain development involves dopamine axon growth and a coincident change in UNC5c receptor expression, both of which are responsive, in unison, to an environmental signal.

Quantitative analyses of multi-dimensional microscopy datasets with a new Fiji/ImageJ plugin for cell tracking reveal the lineage restrictions and morphogenetic cellular behaviors underlying embryonic limb outgrowth in the direct developing crustacean Parhyale hawaiensis.

Gene flow analysis reveals that the genomes of most sub-Saharan populations are the result of recent historical admixture events.

For analyzing time-dependent patch-clamp or patch-clamp fluorometry data of ion channels in terms of Markovian models, the superiority of Bayesian filtering with respect to traditional deterministic approaches is demonstrated enabling more reliable quantification of the parameters.

When two signals increase transcription of the same gene, their combined effect tends to reflect either the sum of the individual increases or the product of the individual fold-changes.

A novel methodology, using diversity search AI algorithms, for exploring the space of possible behaviors of gene regulatory networks, from the perspective of generic problem-solving agents navigating their environment.
