The breast, despite its importance in sexual and affective touch, exhibits poor tactile localization and demonstrates a relationship between size and innervation density.

Altered tactile decision-making in autism reflects context-dependent weighting of sensory inputs and diminished integration of sensory history, enhancing low-salience discrimination while reducing category-based perceptual facilitation.

A comprehensive mutational scan of TYK2 identifies novel allosteric sites, elucidates functional drug-protein interactions, and links autoimmune disease protection to reduced TYK2 protein abundance.

A generic strategy for producing functional snake venom metalloproteinases opens the field to reproducible mechanistic studies and inhibitor discovery.

Cellular sensitivity to cell death stimuli depends on cell-size-dependent proteome changes - specifically, cell size can modulate ferroptosis susceptibility through changes in glutathione biosynthetic enzymes, ferritin, and cathepsin B concentrations.

Non-covalent targeting of KEAP1 by capsaicin provides a reversible and safe NRF2 agonist for treating oxidative damage.

Muscarinic cholinergic signaling links neural activity to organism‑wide transcriptional and proteostatic responses that protect against chronic oxidative stress.

Dynamic relocalization of MinD in Bacillus subtilis arises from membrane binding of monomers and dimers with membrane-triggered ATP hydrolysis, suggesting MinE-like activators are unnecessary for Min system dynamics.

Using macroevolution, species not strains, uncovered important diversity in how mycobacteria respond to and resist antibiotics, revealing novel resistance determinants.

Integrative structural analysis identifies the structural basis and key residues responsible for IDE conformational dynamics that control the unfolding and selective degradation of amyloid peptides.
