    Effective dynamics of nucleosome configurations at the yeast PHO5 promoter

    Michael Roland Wolff, Andrea Schmid ... Ulrich Gerland
    The integration of multi-nucleosome configuration data with histone turnover and new chromatin accessibility data by systematically investigated 'regulated on-off-slide' models reveals promoter state transitions regulated by just one assembly process.

    Evidence for additive and synergistic action of mammalian enhancers during cell fate determination

    Jinmi Choi, Kseniia Lysakovskaia ... Patrick Cramer
    Temporal changes in genome-wide enhancer transcription activity during a transdifferentiation event reveal additive and synergistic enhancer cooperation.

    Constructing and optimizing 3D atlases from 2D data with application to the developing mouse brain

    David M Young, Siavash Fazel Darbandi ... Stephan J Sanders
    A computational tool developed to construct three-dimensional anatomical atlases from two-dimensional data generates volumetrically complete and aligned atlases for all stages of development in the Allen Developing Mouse Brain Atlas.

    Stochastic logistic models reproduce experimental time series of microbial communities

    Lana Descheemaeker, Sophie de Buyl
    Properties of various microbial communities time series, such as the noise color and neutrality, are captured by stochastic generalized Lotka-Volterra equations, even in the absence of interactions.

    Local genetic context shapes the function of a gene regulatory network

    Anna Nagy-Staron, Kathrin Tomasek ... Calin C Guet
    The phenotype of a gene regulatory network depends both qualitatively and quantitatively on the local genetic context of its individual components and cannot necessarily be predicted solely from network's topology.

    Alzheimer’s Disease: Exploring the origins of nucleation

    Katarzyna Marta Zoltowska, Lucía Chávez-Gutiérrez

    The genetic landscape for amyloid beta fibril nucleation accurately discriminates familial Alzheimer’s disease mutations

    Mireia Seuma, Andre J Faure ... Benedetta Bolognesi
    A massively parallel analysis of the effects of mutations on amyloid beta nucleation provide the first comprehensive atlas of how mutations alter the formation of amyloid fibrils.

    Sub-minute prediction of brain temperature based on sleep–wake state in the mouse

    Yaniv Sela, Marieke MB Hoekstra, Paul Franken
    The sleep–wake state sequence explains almost all of the variance in brain temperature in the mouse, and its detailed dynamics can be accurately predicted only using sleep–wake information.

    Repeated outbreaks drive the evolution of bacteriophage communication

    Hilje M Doekes, Glenn A Mulder, Rutger Hermsen
    Mathematical modelling suggests that the evolution of communication between bacterial viruses requires repeated outbreak events, and the model then predicts typical communication strategies.

    Identifying molecular features that are associated with biological function of intrinsically disordered protein regions

    Taraneh Zarin, Bob Strome ... Alan M Moses
    A statistical model systematically associates functions of intrinsically disordered regions with sequence-distributed molecular features such as charge, residue composition, or repeat content.
