Diel and eddy driven changes in microbial gene expression and biogeochemistry in the oceanic chlorophyll maximum

Tracking oceanic microbial populations in situ over time is challenging. Here, the authors use autonomous underwater vehicles to show how microbes at the deep chlorophyll maximum respond to diel cycles and isopycnal uplift by a cyclonic eddy.

Genetic modifiers of APOE-ε4-associated cognitive decline

The APOE-ε4 allele is the strongest genetic risk factor for late-onset Alzheimer’s disease, but it is not deterministic. Here, the authors show that common genetic variation changes how APOE-ε4 influences cognition.

Pyrogenic carbon contribution to tropical savanna soil carbon storage

This study shows that fire-derived pyrogenic carbon constitutes a substantial share of soil carbon in African savannas, with clay-rich soils in drier regions storing the most, highlighting fire’s key role in shaping the savanna carbon cycle at regional scales.

Evolutionary history of ponerine ants highlights how the timing of dispersal events shapes modern biodiversity

The diversity of ponerine ants varies widely across the globe. This study finds that the origin and early colonization in Gondwana’s tropical regions mainly shaped this distribution, while differences in diversification and dispersal have balanced regional diversity over time.

Structure of amyloid-β (20-34) with Alzheimer’s-associated isomerization at Asp23 reveals a distinct protofilament interface

In patients with sporadic Alzheimer’s disease part of the Asp23 residues are isomerized to L-isoaspartate (L-isoAsp23). Here the authors present the MicroED structures of wild-type and L-isoAsp23 Aβ 20–34 amyloid fibrils that both form tightly packed cores and self-associate through two distinct interfaces with one of these interfaces being strengthened by the isoaspartyl modification.

Limits to reproduction and seed size-number trade-offs that shape forest dominance and future recovery

The relationships that control seed production in trees are key to understand evolutionary pressures that have shaped forests. A global synthesis of fecundity data reveals that while seed production is not constrained by a strict size-number trade-off, it is influenced by taxonomy and nutrient allocation.

Mapping neuroanatomy is a foundational goal of connectomics, and the gold standard method is electron microscopy as light microscopy lacks nanoscale resolution. Here the authors develop a strategy using multicolor genetic labeling (Brainbow) and expansion microscopy to map putative synaptic connections using light microscopy.

Rare coding variants in PLCG2, ABI3, and TREM2 implicate microglial-mediated innate immunity in Alzheimer's disease

Sven van der Lee, Julie Williams, Gerard Schellenberg and colleagues identify rare coding variants in PLCG2, ABI3 and TREM2 associated with Alzheimer's disease. These genes are highly expressed in microglia and provide additional evidence that the microglia-mediated immune response contributes to the development of Alzheimer's disease.

The authors detected associations with exonic deletions in established breast cancer susceptibility genes and suggestive associations for a number of non-coding CNVs.
