    Rapid binding to protofilament edge sites facilitates tip tracking of EB1 at growing microtubule plus-ends

    Samuel J Gonzalez, Julia M Heckel ... Melissa K Gardner
    Computational modeling combined with biophysical and cellular experiments reveal that rapid binding to incomplete, partial microtubule binding sites facilitates tracking of the end-binding protein EB1 with growing microtubule plus-ends.

    KAT2-mediated acetylation switches the mode of PALB2 chromatin association to safeguard genome integrity

    Marjorie Fournier, Amélie Rodrigue ... Fumiko Esashi
    The lysine acetyltransferases KAT2A and KAT2B regulate the dynamic chromatin association of the tumour suppressor protein PALB2, protecting active genes and promoting DNA damage repair in a context-dependent manner.

    A simple and effective F0 knockout method for rapid screening of behaviour and other complex phenotypes

    François Kroll, Gareth T Powell ... Jason Rihel
    Zebrafish knockouts can be generated in a few hours directly from wild-type eggs and are suitable for studying continuous traits, including behaviour.

    Restraint of presynaptic protein levels by Wnd/DLK signaling mediates synaptic defects associated with the kinesin-3 motor Unc-104

    Jiaxing Li, Yao V Zhang ... Catherine A Collins
    Synaptic defects previously attributed to loss of kinesin function are found to be mediated by the Wnd/DLK axonal injury signaling pathway, which restrains the total levels of presynaptic proteins in response to their accumulation.

    Type 1 piliated uropathogenic Escherichia coli hijack the host immune response by binding to CD14

    Kathrin Tomasek, Alexander Leithner ... Michael Sixt
    By binding with their type 1 pili to the cell surface receptor CD14, pathogenic E. coli suppress the capacity of dendritic cells to activate T cells.

    The dynamic assembly of distinct RNA polymerase I complexes modulates rDNA transcription

    Eva Torreira, Jaime Alegrio Louro ... Carlos Fernández-Tornero
    Live-cell imaging, genetic analysis and electron cryomicroscopy identify structural motifs involved in the differential assembly of Pol I-Rrn3 complexes and Pol I homodimers in response to nutrient availability.

    Ear pinnae in a neotropical katydid (Orthoptera: Tettigoniidae) function as ultrasound guides for bat detection

    Christian A Pulver, Emine Celiker ... Fernando Montealegre-Z
    Located in the legs, the miniaturized katydid ears exhibit cuticular pinnae to only capture high-ultrasonic bat echolocation calls, but katydid also hear their own calls using alternative ear paths, which suggest that their ears operate in a colossal frequency range.

    The severity of microstrokes depends on local vascular topology and baseline perfusion

    Franca Schmid, Giulia Conti ... Bruno Weber
    The number of inflows and outflows at the occluded capillary governs the local flow reduction, and the different topological configurations are probably designed for distinct functional tasks.

    An in vitro stem cell model of human epiblast and yolk sac interaction

    Kirsty ML Mackinlay, Bailey AT Weatherbee ... Magdalena Zernicka-Goetz
    Human yolk sac-like cells, which share characteristics with the post-implantation human hypoblast, can model the interaction between the epiblast and hypoblast that occurs during early human development.

    Diversity and evolution of cerebellar folding in mammals

    Katja Heuer, Nicolas Traut ... Roberto Toro
    A computational neuroanatomy analysis of cerebellar and cerebral folding in 56 mammalian species reveals groups of highly variable 'diverse' phenotypes, and strongly conserved 'stable' phenotypes, providing new insights into the diversity, evolution, and influence of cortical folding on brain organisation.
