    Merging multi-omics with proteome integral solubility alteration unveils antibiotic mode of action

    Ritwik Maity, Xuepei Zhang ... Javier Sancho
    Like two peas in a pod but not exactly alike, similar molecules targeting the same bacterial protein behave differently, requiring systems biology and target deconvolution to gain better comprehension.

    Human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes to study inflammation-induced aberrant calcium transient

    Yuki Tatekoshi, Chunlei Chen ... Hossein Ardehali
    A calcium transient measurement system utilizing human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes reveals the detrimental impact of inflammatory cytokines on cardiomyocyte relaxation and displays the potential of drugs to reverse these defects.

    Antigenic drift and subtype interference shape A(H3N2) epidemic dynamics in the United States

    Amanda C Perofsky, John Huddleston ... Cécile Viboud
    Antigenic drift in influenza’s major surface proteins, hemagglutinin and neuraminidase, contributes to variability in epidemic magnitude across seasons but is less influential than subtype interference in shaping annual outbreaks.

    Rifampicin tolerance and growth fitness among isoniazid-resistant clinical Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates from a longitudinal study

    Srinivasan Vijay, Nguyen Le Hoai Bao ... Nguyen Thuy Thuong
    Isoniazid resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis is linked to higher rifampicin tolerance, necessitating evaluation and potential adjustment of treatment regimens to combat emerging multi-drug resistant variants.

    Machine learning approaches identify immunologic signatures of total and intact HIV DNA during long-term antiretroviral therapy

    Lesia Semenova, Yingfan Wang ... Edward P Browne
    Dimension reduction and machine learning tools were used to identify novel associations between the HIV reservoir and the immune systems of people with HIV.

    Recombinant origin and interspecies transmission of a HERV-K(HML-2)-related primate retrovirus with a novel RNA transport element

    Zachary H Williams, Alvaro Dafonte Imedio ... Welkin E Johnson
    The genetic 'fossil record' of a retroviral lineage over >25 million years of evolution reveals the profound consequences of an ancient recombination event on viral replication mechanisms and genome structure, and identifies an ancient interspecies viral transmission.

    Reversions mask the contribution of adaptive evolution in microbiomes

    Paul A Torrillo, Tami D Lieberman
    The timescale dependence of dN/dS in bacteria is better explained by adaptive than purifying dynamics, suggesting comparative genomics can underestimate past adaptation.
