    Behavioural pharmacology predicts disrupted signalling pathways and candidate therapeutics from zebrafish mutants of Alzheimer’s disease risk genes

    François Kroll, Joshua Donnelly ... Jason Rihel
    Predictive pharmacology based on behavioural fingerprinting can identify druggable pathways that are altered or renormalized in zebrafish larvae that harbor mutations in early and late-onset Alzheimer's disease risk genes.

    Mapping kinase domain resistance mechanisms for the MET receptor tyrosine kinase via deep mutational scanning

    Gabriella O Estevam, Edmond Linossi ... James S Fraser
    A deep mutational scan of MET kinase domain variants reveals resistance and sensitizing mutations for 11 inhibitors, providing a mutation-specific reference for precision therapies and drug development.

    fmo-4 promotes longevity and stress resistance via ER to mitochondria calcium regulation in C. elegans

    Angela M Tuckowski, Safa Beydoun ... Scott F Leiser
    fmo-4 slows aging downstream of dietary restriction and mTOR and regulates calcium-mediated signaling in the hypodermis.

    Specific presynaptic functions require distinct Drosophila Cav2 splice isoforms

    Christopher Bell, Lukas Kilo ... Stefanie Ryglewski
    Mutually exclusive splicing of two exon pairs of the only Drosophila Cav2 homolog cacophony mediates functional diversity of Cav2 channels in Drosophila.

    T3SS translocon induces pyroptosis by direct interaction with NLRC4/NAIP inflammasome

    Yan Zhao, Hanshuo Zhu ... Li Sun
    T3SS translocon induces NLRC4-mediated cell death via a conserved C-terminal region shared by many T3SS-positive bacterial pathogens.

    Late killing of Plasmodium berghei sporozoites in the liver by an anti-circumsporozoite protein antibody

    Manuela C Aguirre-Botero, Olga Pacios ... Rogerio Amino
    A late-neutralizing monoclonal antibody targeting the major surface antigen of plasmodial sporozoites impairs the fitness of intracellular parasites, offering mechanistic insights to guide the development of potent anti-malaria antibodies.

    Sleep need driven oscillation of glutamate synaptic phenotype

    Kaspar E Vogt, Ashwinikumar Kulkarni ... Robert W Greene
    Sleep's role to down-scale glutamate, excitatory, frontal cortical synapses is extended to include an up-scaling of metaplastic LTP potential, in recovery from prolonged waking induced saturation of this LTP potential.

    Quantification of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium population dynamics in murine infection using a highly diverse barcoded library

    Julia A Hotinger, Ian W Campbell ... Matthew K Waldor
    Microbial lineage tracing during murine systemic infection with Salmonella uncovered the bottlenecks that restrict colonization and the hidden routes of interorgan dissemination that drive heterogeneity in infection outcomes.

    The population genetics of convergent adaptation in maize and teosinte is not locally restricted

    Silas Tittes, Anne Lorant ... Jeffrey Ross-Ibarra
    Adaptation of domesticated maize and its wild relative teosinte has been facilitated by the geographically widespread exchange of beneficial alleles between them.

    From histology to macroscale function in the human amygdala

    Hans Auer, Donna Gift Cabalo ... Jessica Royer
    A data-driven exploration of amygdala microstructure captures this region's subnuclear structure and dissociates its cortical functional connectivity profiles.
