Studying the fecal microbiota of wild baboons helps provide new insight into the factors that influence biological aging.

Multiplexed assays of variant effect are an increasingly important tool in genetic research and including more context specificity in their design would aid interpretation and discovery.

This important study by Bi and colleagues employed a clever genetics screen to uncover the role of the GidB rRNA methylase in translation fidelity, under certain conditions, in Mycobacterium smegmatis ...

This fundamental study combines Global Positioning System tracking and the analysis of social interactions among feral pigs, to provide insights into the likelihood of disease transmission based on ...

A subset of cells in the brain coordinate bladder muscle and sphincter function to precisely control urination, according to new research.

This limits the wide impact of this study but can be used as a starting point to examine sex- and age differences in the transcriptome due to alternative splicing. Complex diseases often exhibit ...

This variability may be part of a bet-hedging strategy, where populations express a range of phenotypes to ensure survival in unpredictable environments. In addition phenotypic variability between ...

This study provides valuable insights into the differential impact of intrinsic and synaptic conductances on circuit robustness, emphasizing intrinsic plasticity as a crucial but often overlooked ...

This work presents a valuable exploration of AI-assisted protein engineering, particularly in designing a VHH antibody with enhanced resistance and stability to extreme environments. However, the ...

This compelling study is a splendid advance in approximately doubling the number of sequenced chiton genomes, providing what appears to be among the best genome annotations for chiton genomes ...

This valuable study proposes a novel rapid-entry mechanism of S. aureus that involves the rapid release of calcium from lysosomes. The strength of the paper lies in a very interesting hypothesis; what ...
