  • Although seaweed is a sustainable feed option for cattle, it’s not known if its cell wall polysaccharides are digested. Here authors show the seaweed Mazzaella japonica enriches for carrageenan-digesting bacteria in the lower gut of diverse ruminants.

  • Many RNA systems possess highly ordered 3-D structures that are essential to their function. Here the authors demonstrate that the long non-coding RNA Braveheart possesses a flexible but defined 3-D structure which is remodeled upon binding the protein CNBP.

  • Netrins are secreted guidance factors that promote axon outgrowth and orientation during nervous system development. Here the authors present structural and biological evidence that netrin-4 is not a guidance cue per se, but rather functions to modulate laminin-laminin interactions.

  • White-tailed deer are an important reservoir of SARS-CoV-2 in the USA and continued monitoring of the virus in deer populations is needed. In this genomic epidemiology study from Ohio, the authors show that the virus has been introduced multiple times to deer from humans, and that it has evolved faster in deer.

  • A collaborative study demonstrates that, compared with previous SARS-CoV-2 variants, B.1.1.529 isolates cause less infection and disease in mice and hamsters, in agreement with preliminary data from studies in humans.
