    Common activation mechanism of class A GPCRs

    Qingtong Zhou, Dehua Yang ... Suwen Zhao
    Contrary to previous findings, class A GPCRs share a common activation pathway that directly links ligand binding to G-protein activation, as revealed by novel quantitative analysis.

    Differences in topological progression profile among neurodegenerative diseases from imaging data

    Sara Garbarino, Marco Lorenzi ... Daniel C Alexander
    Computational-driven, imaging-based topological profiles of neurodegeneration differ substantially in different neurodegenerative conditions, suggesting distinct modes of dependence of the pathological spread on the underlying connectivity.

    Single-cell modeling of routine clinical blood tests reveals transient dynamics of human response to blood loss

    Anwesha Chaudhury, Geoff D Miller ... John M Higgins
    Unsteady state modeling of blood cell populations reveals that blood loss triggers a cellular clearance delay and a cellular production increase, and modeling provides earlier detection and individualized patient characterization.

    Meta-Research: Releasing a preprint is associated with more attention and citations for the peer-reviewed article

    Darwin Y Fu, Jacob J Hughey
    An analysis of more than 70,000 journal articles, including 5405 that were first released as a preprint on bioRxiv, shows that articles with a preprint received 49% more attention and 36% more citations than articles without one.

    Systematic genetic analysis of the MHC region reveals mechanistic underpinnings of HLA type associations with disease

    Matteo D'Antonio, Joaquin Reyna ... Kelly A Frazer
    Analysis of the major histocompatibility complex using whole genome sequencing and RNA-seq data from hundreds of individuals provides novel insights into mechanisms underlying associations of this interval with disease.

    Evolution of C4 photosynthesis predicted by constraint-based modelling

    Mary-Ann Blätke, Andrea Bräutigam
    Constraint-based modelling predicts C4 photosynthesis evolves under resource limitation from an ancestral ground state of C3 photosynthesis and attributes divergent metabolic routes in extant C4 subtypes to light.
