    Molecular dynamics of the matrisome across sea anemone life history

    Bruno Gideon Bergheim, Alison G Cole ... Suat Özbek
    Integrated proteomic and single-cell transcriptomic analyses define the Nematostella vectensis matrisome and reveal conserved extracellular matrix functions driving life cycle transitions in this non-bilaterian model.

    Cancer–immune coevolution dictated by antigenic mutation accumulation

    Long Wang, Christo Morison, Weini Huang
    Genetic information in cancer cells reveals the strength of cancer–immune interactions in an individual-based stochastic model, which captures explicit interactions between cancer and effector cells.

    Viral genome sequence datasets display pervasive evidence of strand-specific substitution biases that are best described using non-reversible nucleotide substitution models

    Rita Sianga-Mete, Penelope Hartnady ... Darren P Martin
    Non-reversible nucleotide substitution models best describe strand-specific nucleotide substitution biases of viral genomes.

    Adaptations in wing morphology rather than wingbeat kinematics enable flight in small hoverfly species

    Camille Le Roy, Nina Tervelde ... Florian T Muijres
    Small hoverflies compensate for size-related flight challenges through evolutionary changes in wing shape rather than altered wingbeat kinematics.

    Forecasting protein evolution by integrating birth-death population models with structurally constrained substitution models

    David Ferreiro, Luis Daniel González-Vázquez ... Miguel Arenas
    Forecasting protein evolution in terms of folding stability using state-of-the-art population genetics and substitution models is feasible in rugged fitness landscapes, whereas forecasting exact amino acid sequences remains more challenging.

    Fast evolutionary turnover and overlapping variances of sex-biased gene expression patterns defy a simple binary sex classification of somatic tissues

    Chen Xie, Sven Künzel, Diethard Tautz
    Sex-biased gene expression in the body organs evolves rapidly, supporting a mosaic model of maleness and femaleness across tissues and thus challenging binary views of sex characteristics in mammals.
