The first genomic view of beetle luciferase evolution indicates evolutionary independence of luciferase between fireflies and click-beetles, and provide valuable datasets which will accelerate the discovery of new biotechnological tools.

An outer membrane vesicle pulse-chase assay demonstrates that the Acinetobacter baumannii Mla system is a retrograde lipid transporter.

Bidirectional promoter activity, which is inherent to the promoters of selection cassettes used for genome editing, causes divergent transcription that can disrupt expression of genes neighboring cassette insertion sites, causing potent off-target effects.

An analysis of 31,873 clinical trials shows that adequate statistical power was most often present in trials with a male first author and a female last author.

Metabolic supplementation attenuates age-dependent declines in regeneration.

Pyro-sequencing of two genes involved in bacterial secondary metabolism provides new insights into the rich reservoir of biologically active small molecules found in environmental bacteria.

Biased research interest in proteins and aggregation of interactions from multiple studies can explain why node degree distributions in protein-protein interaction networks follow a power law.

Simultaneous optogenetic stimulation and calcium imaging in V1 of behaving macaques reveals that low-power optostimulation can substitute a visual mask and significantly reduce perceptual and neural detection sensitivities.

Neural representations of stimulus-specific information increase in fidelity as the power of alpha/beta activity decreases, suggesting that alpha/beta power decreases reflect a domain-general mechanism that supports information representation.

Genetic analyses provide evidence that adiposity influences vitamin D levels at different timepoints over the lifecourse, suggesting that associations previously reported between vitamin D deficiency and disease by conventional epidemiological studies may have been prone to confounding.
