    A tug of war between filament treadmilling and myosin induced contractility generates actin rings

    Qin Ni, Kaustubh Wagh ... Garegin A Papoian
    Actin networks form clusters under myosin-induced contractility, while high actin filament treadmilling speed can reshape actin networks into ring-like structures with lower mechanical energy.

    Mesoscale cortex-wide neural dynamics predict self-initiated actions in mice several seconds prior to movement

    Catalin Mitelut, Yongxu Zhang ... Timothy H Murphy
    Mouse self-initiated behaviors can be identified seconds prior to action and have similar neuro-dynamical structure to neural dynamics underlying human voluntary actions supporting the use of mouse models in self-initiated and volitional action research.

    The individuality of shape asymmetries of the human cerebral cortex

    Yu-Chi Chen, Aurina Arnatkevičiūtė ... Kevin M Aquino
    Asymmetries between the shape of the left and right human cortex are highly unique to individuals, akin to a neuroanatomical fingerprint, related to cognitive function, and primarily driven by person-specific environmental influences.

    Deep mutational scanning and machine learning reveal structural and molecular rules governing allosteric hotspots in homologous proteins

    Megan Leander, Zhuang Liu ... Srivatsan Raman
    Deep mutational scanning of homologous proteins shows conservation in allosteric mechanisms but differences in molecular details within the protein family.

    Evolution of cell size control is canalized towards adders or sizers by cell cycle structure and selective pressures

    Felix Proulx-Giraldeau, Jan M Skotheim, Paul François
    An evolutionary algorithm is used to build gene networks implementing cell size control, and suggests multiple ways for evolution to first build sizers and turn them into adders depending on evolutionary constraints.
