    Drastic changes in conformational dynamics of the antiterminator M2-1 regulate transcription efficiency in Pneumovirinae

    Cedric Leyrat, Max Renner ... Jonathan M Grimes
    A combination of X-ray crystallography, molecular dynamics and small angle X-ray scattering shows that the transcription antiterminator M2-1 is a structurally dynamic homotetramer that undergoes large concerted conformational changes upon binding its target RNA.

    Evolutionary dynamics of incubation periods

    Bertrand Ottino-Loffler, Jacob G Scott, Steven H Strogatz
    Evolutionary graph theory solves the longstanding puzzle of why diverse infectious diseases and cancers show similar (approximately lognormal) distributions of their incubation periods.

    MicroRNA-218 instructs proper assembly of hippocampal networks

    Seth R Taylor, Mariko Kobayashi ... Giordano Lippi
    MicroRNA-218 is required in both excitatory and inhibitory neurons of the developing hippocampus to regulate intrinsic and network excitability.

    Accelerated viral dynamics in bat cell lines, with implications for zoonotic emergence

    Cara E Brook, Mike Boots ... Anieke van Leeuwen
    Bats' uniquely robust innate antiviral immune defenses select for faster transmitting viruses likely to generate extreme virulence upon spillover to secondary hosts with immune systems divergent from those of bat.

    Synaptic connectivity to L2/3 of primary visual cortex measured by two-photon optogenetic stimulation

    Travis A Hage, Alice Bosma-Moody ... Gabe J Murphy
    A combination of multicellular recording and optogenetic photostimulation was used to deeply characterize the spatial profiles and effective strengths of intralaminar and translaminar synaptic connections from genetically defined neuronal populations in the visual cortex of adult mouse.

    Transcriptional correlates of malaria in RTS,S/AS01-vaccinated African children: a matched case–control study

    Gemma Moncunill, Jason Carnes ... Raphael Gottardo
    Prevaccination levels of transcriptional modules related to monocytes, dendritic cells, and other immune categories correlate with clinical malaria risk in RTS,S/AS01E-vaccinated African children, suggesting that certain monocyte subsets may inhibit RTS,S/AS01E-induced protective responses.

    Primate malarias as a model for cross-species parasite transmission

    Marina Voinson, Charles L Nunn, Amy Goldberg
    Ecological and evolutionary perspectives are critical to understand, predict, prevent, and treat malaria parasites that may spread to humans from our close primate relatives.

    Integrating genomic and epidemiologic data to accelerate progress toward schistosomiasis elimination

    Andrea J Lund, Kristen J Wade ... Elizabeth J Carlton
    Genomic approaches can be integrated with epidemiological and ecological studies to provide high-resolution answers to open questions about schistosomiasis transmission dynamics, offering a level of precision that is actionable, such that schistosomiasis-control programming can be tailored to regional contexts.

    Evidence of human infection by a new mammarenavirus endemic to Southeastern Asia

    Kim R Blasdell, Veasna Duong ... Philippe Buchy
    New mammarenaviruses have been identified from rodents in Cambodia and Thailand, and the Cardamones variant of Wēnzhōu virus has been found in Cambodian patients presenting with fever and respiratory symptoms.
