    Cells use molecular working memory to navigate in changing chemoattractant fields

    Akhilesh Nandan, Abhishek Das ... Aneta Koseska
    Combined experimental and theoretical analysis identifies a molecular mechanism akin to working memory that enables single cells to perform complex navigation tasks in changing growth factor fields, beyond simple stimulus-response associations.

    The biphasic and age-dependent impact of klotho on hallmarks of aging and skeletal muscle function

    Zachary Clemens, Sruthi Sivakumar ... Fabrisia Ambrosio
    Transcriptomic analysis using a novel information-based network entropy approach provides mechanistic insights into the ability of Klotho to successfully ameliorate age-related sarcopenia in old mice, but not oldest-old mice.

    Brain age has limited utility as a biomarker for capturing fluid cognition in older individuals

    Alina Tetereva, Narun Pat
    When used to capture fluid cognition, Brain Age likely fails to add substantially more information over and above chronological age and could miss up to around one-third of the variation.

    Large-scale characterization of drug mechanism of action using proteome-wide thermal shift assays

    Jonathan G Van Vranken, Jiaming Li ... Devin K Schweppe
    An approachable framework for the scalable implementation of proteome-wide thermal shift assays to assess drug mechanisms of action.

    Embryo polarity in moth flies and mosquitoes relies on distinct old genes with localized transcript isoforms

    Yoseop Yoon, Jeff Klomp ... Urs Schmidt-Ott
    Isoform-specific transcript localization underlies the evolutionary diversity of anterior axis determinants in embryos of dipteran insects.

    Disease consequences of higher adiposity uncoupled from its adverse metabolic effects using Mendelian randomisation

    Susan Martin, Jessica Tyrrell ... Hanieh Yaghootkar
    Using genetics, it is possible to uncouple higher adiposity from its adverse metabolic effects and show that some obesity-associated conditions may benefit from treating the metabolic effects alone, whilst others may benefit more from weight loss.

    Recurrent evolution of high virulence in isolated populations of a DNA virus

    Tom Hill, Robert L Unckless
    The same host–virus interactions can evolve multiple times in nature, due to the high effective mutation rate of viruses, and provide interesting systems of study.

    Determining the effects of paternal obesity on sperm chromatin at histone H3 lysine 4 tri-methylation in relation to the placental transcriptome and cellular composition

    Anne-Sophie Pepin, Patrycja A Jazwiec ... Sarah Kimmins
    Epigenomic and transcriptomic analysis reveals that paternal obesity influences sperm histone H3 lysine 4 tri-methylation enrichment and placenta gene expression, which in turn negatively impact its development and function in a manner that may contribute to metabolic disease in offspring.

    Formin-2 drives polymerisation of actin filaments enabling segregation of apicoplasts and cytokinesis in Plasmodium falciparum

    Johannes Felix Stortz, Mario Del Rosario ... Sujaan Das
    Formin-2 controls spatiotemporal polymerisation of actin filaments, a common mechanism used by apicomplexans for effective segregation of essential chloroplast-like organelles called apicoplasts, and additionally for daughter formation in Plasmodium falciparum.
