    Epistasis facilitates functional evolution in an ancient transcription factor

    Brian PH Metzger, Yeonwoo Park ... Joseph W Thornton
    A complete mutational scan of a protein-DNA interface shows that pairwise epistatic interactions among amino acids determine a transcription factor's specificity for DNA and facilitate the evolution of new functions.

    Association mapping from sequencing reads using k-mers

    Atif Rahman, Ingileif Hallgrímsdóttir ... Lior Pachter
    Associations can be mapped using k-mer frequencies in sequencing reads without prior sequencing of a reference genome enabling detection of associations to variants of multiple types and outside of the reference.

    Science Forum: Consensus-based guidance for conducting and reporting multi-analyst studies

    Balazs Aczel, Barnabas Szaszi ... Eric-Jan Wagenmakers
    Using multiple analysts to independently analyze the same dataset has the potential to explore and strengthen the robustness of results and conclusions in basic and applied research.

    New tools for automated high-resolution cryo-EM structure determination in RELION-3

    Jasenko Zivanov, Takanori Nakane ... Sjors HW Scheres
    RELION-3 calculates single-particle reconstructions to higher resolution and with less user-interactions than previously available versions.

    Protein sequences bound to mineral surfaces persist into deep time

    Beatrice Demarchi, Shaun Hall ... Matthew J Collins
    A chemically unstable ostrich eggshell peptide survives for at least 3.8 million years at the equator, stabilized by strong mineral interactions.

    Effects of lifelong testosterone exposure on health and disease using Mendelian randomization

    Pedrum Mohammadi-Shemirani, Michael Chong ... Guillaume Paré
    Long-term increased testosterone improved body composition and bone density, but lowered HDL and raised risks of hypertension, androgenic alopecia, prostate cancer, and spinal stenosis in males.

    Global constraints within the developmental program of the Drosophila wing

    Vasyl Alba, James E Carthew ... Madhav Mani
    A novel mathematical strategy for the integrated analysis of adult body structures quantifies the degree and nature of developmental robustness and its evolutionary implications.

    Cerebellar re-encoding of self-generated head movements

    Guillaume P Dugué, Matthieu Tihy ... Clément Léna
    The cerebellum encodes self-generated head rotations in a head posture-dependent manner, providing in particular a representation of how the head rotates about axes referenced relative to gravity.

    Rapid, Reference-Free human genotype imputation with denoising autoencoders

    Raquel Dias, Doug Evans ... Ali Torkamani
    A new autoencoder-based genotype imputation method shows superior accuracy across human genomes of diverse ancestry and across the allele-frequency spectrum, while delivering significantly faster inference run times relative to standard imputation tools.

    Novel protein markers of androgen activity in humans: proteomic study of plasma from young chemically castrated men

    Aleksander Giwercman, K Barbara Sahlin ... Johan Malm
    Three new protein markers of testosterone action identified by us, may prove to be valuable as clinical tools in identifying men with testosterone deficiency and in monitoring androgen replacement therapy.
