    Incomplete inhibition of HIV infection results in more HIV infected lymph node cells by reducing cell death

    Laurelle Jackson, Jessica Hunter ... Alex Sigal
    Under conditions where the force of HIV infection per cell is high, partial attenuation of infection with inhibitors can increase the number of live infected cells and may paradoxically be beneficial for viral spread.

    Size uniformity of animal cells is actively maintained by a p38 MAPK-dependent regulation of G1-length

    Shixuan Liu, Miriam Bracha Ginzberg ... Ran Kafri
    The p38 MAPK pathway functions downstream of a cell-size-sensing process to coordinate cell size/growth with G1 progression in animal cells.

    Method for identification of condition-associated public antigen receptor sequences

    Mikhail V Pogorelyy, Anastasia A Minervina ... Aleksandra M Walczak
    Without using control cohorts, a statistical method identifies candidates for immune receptors associated with diseases from repertoire sequencing datasets.

    Individual crop loads provide local control for collective food intake in ant colonies

    Efrat Esther Greenwald, Lior Baltiansky, Ofer Feinerman
    Colony satiation level determines the unloading rate of laden foragers, which, in turn, rely on their own food load to adjust their foraging effort.

    Automated analysis of long-term grooming behavior in Drosophila using a k-nearest neighbors classifier

    Bing Qiao, Chiyuan Li ... Sheyum Syed
    Drosophila grooming is driven by two internal programs.

    The periaqueductal gray and Bayesian integration in placebo analgesia

    Arvina Grahl, Selim Onat, Christian Büchel
    Bayesian integration is able to predict placebo treatment outcomes by focusing especially on the influence of the precision of expectations.

    A dynamic mechanism for allosteric activation of Aurora kinase A by activation loop phosphorylation

    Emily F Ruff, Joseph M Muretta ... Nicholas M Levinson
    Phosphorylation of Aurora A does not trigger a population shift to the active state as previously thought, but instead switches the kinase on by tuning the structure and dynamics of a dynamically sampled subpopulation.

    Pi-Pi contacts are an overlooked protein feature relevant to phase separation

    Robert McCoy Vernon, Paul Andrew Chong ... Julie Deborah Forman-Kay
    Statistics on the frequencies of pi interactions in folded protein structures enable successful prediction of intrinsically disordered protein phase separation, with clear implications for a physical understanding of cellular organization.

    Antibiotic-induced population fluctuations and stochastic clearance of bacteria

    Jessica Coates, Bo Ryoung Park ... Minsu Kim
    The extinction of bacterial populations by antibiotics is stochastic and can be predicted only probabilistically, not deterministically.

    Global morphogenetic flow is accurately predicted by the spatial distribution of myosin motors

    Sebastian J Streichan, Matthew F Lefebvre ... Boris I Shraiman
    Epithelial tissue remodeling during Drosophila embryonic development is quantitatively described by a simple law relating myosin activity and cell flow.
