This interesting study focuses on a previously reported positive correlation between translational efficiency and protein noise. This is unexpected as typically noise is inversely related to ...

This work presents a valuable finding on how the interplay between transcription factors SOX2 and OCT4 establishes the pluripotency network in early mouse embryos. Despite the high quality of the data ...

This valuable study on strategies used by Pseudomonas to subvert hots immunity identifies a new immune evasion strategy. The study presents solid evidence on the cleavage of VgrG2B by Caspase 11 and ...

Calcineurin fine tunes the balance between proliferation and differentiation of Notch-responsive progenitors in the pancreatic ducts to enable beta cell regeneration in zebrafish.

This valuable report describes the changing antiviral activity of IFIT1 across mammals and in response to distinct viruses, likely as a result of past arms races. One of the main strengths of the ...

This valuable study reports on a novel role of PD-1 in early T cell differentiation, showing that PD-1 stimulation impairs Th2 differentiation more effectively than that of Th1, with implications for ...

This is an important piece of work that sheds light on our understanding of early lung development. There is solid evidence that there is a key new role for Svep1, which may be acting via FGF9. A more ...

Early-career researchers in the Global South have to overcome obstacles that are not found in high-income countries, but in Morocco at least, the future is looking brighter than the past.

This study demonstrates that plant and fruit volatiles can be organized according to a low-dimensional hyperbolic map, and that within this map exist trajectories that correspond to important ...

The advent of large-scale sequencing in both development and disease has identified large numbers of candidate genes that may be linked to important phenotypes. Validating the function of these ...

The fusion of two genes on chromosome 12 – NAB2 and STAT6 – has been found in a rare form of cancer, known as a solitary fibrous tumor, which can form in almost any part of the body ( Thway et al., ...
