    The Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex pangenome is small and shaped by sub-lineage-specific regions of difference

    Mahboobeh Behruznia, Maximillian Marin ... Conor J Meehan
    The accessory genome of Mycobacterium tuberculosis is small, but differences in gene content are found both between and within lineages.

    Spatial integration of sensory input and motor output in Pseudomonas aeruginosa chemotaxis through colocalized distribution

    Zhengyu Wu, Maojin Tian ... Junhua Yuan
    In Pseudomonas aeruginosa, the chemoreceptor cluster and flagellar motor colocalize at the same cell pole through FlhF anchoring, preventing cross-pathway signaling interference between chemotaxis and c-di-GMP regulation.

    The long noncoding RNA lnc-FANCI-2 intrinsically restricts RAS signaling in human papillomavirus type 16-infected cervical cancer cells

    Haibin Liu, Lulu Yu ... Zhi-Ming Zheng
    A newly discovered long noncoding RNA lnc-FANCI-2 suppresses RAS signaling to modulate Akt and Erk1/2 phosphorylation in high-risk HPV cervical cancer, consequently regulating HPV carcinogenesis.

    Temporal dynamics of viral fitness and the adaptive immune response in HCV infection

    Melanie Rose Walker, Preston Leung ... Rowena A Bull
    Early immune pressure and co-occurring mutations drive changes in hepatitis C virus fitness and evolution, revealing key dynamics in the establishment of chronic infection.

    Multi-omics investigation of spontaneous T2DM macaque emphasizes gut microbiota could up-regulate the absorption of excess palmitic acid in the T2DM progression

    Xu Liu, Yuchen Xie ... Jing Li
    Gut dysbiosis and specific microbiota composition promoted the absorption of excess palmitic acid in the ileum, driving its accumulation in the serum.

    Innate immunity and training to subvert original antigenic sin by the humoral immune response

    Faez Amokrane Nait Mohamed, Daniel Lingwood
    It is proposed that innate immune cells are positioned to activate the naïve B cell repertoire and rational application of training stimuli could enforce this, offsetting original antigenic sin, wherein recall of ‘off-target’ B cell memory can obscure vaccine effectiveness.
