    Structural insights into the recruitment of viral type 2 IRES to ribosomal preinitiation complex for protein synthesis

    Deepakash Das, Tanweer Hussain
    The viral type 2 internal ribosome entry site uses a unique mechanism to hijack the host ribosomal machinery by interacting with initiator tRNA and 40S head.

    Controlling the synchronization and symmetry breaking of coupled bacterial pili on active biofilm carpets

    Baha Altın, Enes Talha Günay ... Askin Kocabas
    Active biofilm carpets generate Mexican-wave-like synchronized dynamics and topological defects through nonreciprocal pili interactions.

    Mycobacterium tuberculosis partitions the Krebs cycle under iron starvation

    Agnese Serafini, Acely Garza-Garcia ... Riccardo Manganelli
    Mycobacterium tuberculosis rewires central carbon metabolism to circumvent iron-dependent metabolic routes during iron starvation.

    Intrinsic properties link a network model to zebra finch song

    Nelson D Medina, Dan Margoliash
    Whole-cell recordings paired with a network model show that post-inhibitory rebound excitation in premotor neurons couples intrinsic excitability to the temporal structure of learned birdsong.

    Systematic characterisation of site-specific proline hydroxylation using hydrophilic interaction chromatography and mass spectrometry

    Hao Jiang, Jimena Druker ... Angus I Lamond
    A robust workflow for the identification of proline hydroxylation sites in proteins was established, using hydrophilic interaction chromatography enrichment and LC-MS/MS together with refining and filtering parameters during data analysis.

    PHD1-dependent hydroxylation of RepoMan (CDCA2) on P604 modulates the control of mitotic progression

    Jimena Druker, Hao Jiang ... Angus I Lamond
    Proline hydroxylation of RepoMan (CDCA2) at P604 by PHD1 is shown to be important for mitotic progression and regulating interaction with PP2A regulatory subunit B56 gamma.

    Arousal modulates functional connectivity through structured and hemispherically asymmetric community architecture during wakefulness

    Xiangyu Kong, Siyu Li, Gaolang Gong
    Rather than exerting a uniform influence, arousal modulates the connectome through a structured, low-dimensional community architecture characterized by discrete topological patterns and intrinsic hemispheric asymmetries.

    Verbal Episodic Processing in Newborns

    Emma Visibelli, Ana Fló ... Silvia Benavides-Varela
    Speaker identity is a distinguishing feature at birth and highlights the episodic nature of humans’ first-stored verbal memories.

    Intraflagellar transport protein IFT172 contains a C-terminal ubiquitin-binding U-box-like domain involved in ciliary signaling

    Nevin K Zacharia, Stefanie Kuhns ... Esben Lorentzen
    The IFT172 C-terminus bridges IFT-A and IFT-B complexes through mutually exclusive interactions with IFT140 and IFT144, and harbors a U-box-like domain linking intraflagellar transport to ubiquitin-dependent ciliary signaling.

    From multiplicity of infection to force of infection in sparsely sampled high-transmission Plasmodium falciparum populations

    Qi Zhan, Kathryn E Tiedje ... Mercedes Pascual
    Queuing theory links multiplicity of infection (MOI) to force of infection (FOI), enabling the estimation of transmission intensity for falciparum malaria (and other infectious diseases) from sparsely sampled surveys.
