Babies at nursery shape each other’s microbiomes
The study of the gut microbiome of infants in nurseries revealed that peer-to-peer interaction during the first years of life is a prominent route of acquisition of microbial strain diversity. The impact of nursery-acquired microorganisms is comparable to that of microorganisms sourced, starting at birth, from family members.

Robust partitioning of cell contents by physical instabilities and biological clocks
In early embryos, the first cell divisions must be extremely rapid and precisely controlled to ensure successful development. This balance is found to arise from a tight coupling between the clock that drives the cell-division cycle and a physical instability in the cell skeleton. This coupling robustly partitions cell contents and drives development.

CSN5i-3 is an orthosteric molecular glue inhibitor of COP9 signalosome
An orthosteric CSN inhibitor gains nanomolar potency via a molecular-glue mechanism, stabilizing a CSN5–N8–inhibitor complex that confers substrate-dependent inhibition despite weak free-enzyme affinity.

Transmission of MPXV from fire-footed rope squirrels to sooty mangabeys
An outbreak of MPXV in sooty mangabeys in Côte d’Ivoire was linked to MPXV-infected fire-footed rope squirrels, providing direct evidence of interspecies transmission and indicating risk for zoonotic transmission of MPXV from both hosts.
