Corpses as Repositories of Information and Funerals as Information Centres: Why Natural Selection Favours the Bereaved

open access: yesEthology, EarlyView.
Corpses are repositories of information about the cause of death. The distress of the bereaved acts as an honest signal drawing conspecifics to the body, enabling them to learn quickly about the death, adapt their behaviour, and spread knowledge of threats across multiple social levels.

Human APOBEC3G suppresses homologous recombination and LIG4‐independent end joining in DNA double‐strand break repair

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Chromosomal DNA double‐strand breaks (DSBs) are repaired by homologous recombination and nonhomologous end joining (NHEJ). Recent work has additionally established theta‐mediated end‐joining (TMEJ) as a mechanism for DSB joining. Cells lacking NHEJ and TMEJ can repair DSBs in a homology‐dependent manner.

Sclerostin regulates bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) bioavailability through interactions with BMP complexes and fibrillin microfibrils

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Sclerostin (SOST) is a multifunctional extracellular modulator of BMP and Wnt signaling. SOST binds with high affinity to fibrillin‐1 and fibrillin‐2, localizing it to fibrillin microfibrils and regulating its extracellular bioavailability. Fibrillin‐bound SOST cannot engage BMP‐7 prodomain (PD) complexes, revealing a competitive mechanism that ...

Innate Immune Activation Is a Strong Suppressor of CCL22 and Impedes Regulatory T Cell–Dendritic Cell Interaction

open access: yesImmunology, EarlyView.
During homeostasis, CCL22 is secreted by dendritic cells (DC), which mediate contacts between regulatory T cells (Treg) and DC to maintain immune balance. Activation of innate immunity via microbes or pattern recognition receptor (PRR) agonists induces the secretion of several soluble factors (e.g., type I and II interferons, IL‐10), which mediate ...

Estimation of Genetic Parameters and Genetic Trends for Growth and Reproductive Traits in Mashona Cattle

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mashona cattle are an indigenous Sanga cattle breed from Zimbabwe, used for beef production and known for their mothering ability and adaptation to harsh tropical environments. Growth and reproductive traits are key determinants of efficiency in beef production.
