Nonlinearity and Temporal Dependence [PDF]
Nonlinearities in the drift and diffusion coefficients influence temporal dependence in scalar diffusion models. We study this link using two notions of temporal dependence: beta-mixing and rho-mixing.

Evolution of flower color pattern through selection on regulatory small RNAs [PDF]
Small RNAs (sRNAs) regulate genes in plants and animals. Here, we show that population-wide differences in color patterns in snapdragon flowers are caused by an inverted duplication that generates sRNAs.

Assessing Host-Virus Codivergence for Close Relatives of Merkel Cell Polyomavirus Infecting African Great Apes [PDF]
It has long been hypothesized that polyomaviruses (PyV; family Polyomaviridae) codiverged with their animal hosts. In contrast, recent analyses suggested that codivergence may only marginally influence the evolution of PyV.

Large scale variation in the rate of germ-line de novo mutation, base composition, divergence and diversity in humans [PDF]
It has long been suspected that the rate of mutation varies across the human genome at a large scale based on the divergence between humans and other species.

A microscopy-based screen employing multiplex genome sequencing identifies cargo-specific requirements for dynein velocity [PDF]
The timely delivery of membranous organelles and macromolecules to specific locations within the majority of eukaryotic cells depends on microtubule-based transport.

Illuminating the Function of the Orphan Transporter, SLC22A10 in Humans and Other Primates [PDF]
SLC22A10 is classified as an orphan transporter with unknown substrates and function. Here we describe the discovery of the substrate specificity and functional characteristics of SLC22A10.

Functional dissection of two amino acid substitutions unique to the human FOXP2 protein [PDF]
The transcription factor forkhead box P2 (FOXP2) is involved in the development of language and speech in humans. Two amino acid substitutions (T303N, N325S) occurred in the human FOXP2 after the divergence from the chimpanzee lineage.

Resurrecting the Dead (Molecules) [PDF]
Biological molecules, like organisms themselves, are subject to genetic drift and may even become “extinct”. Molecules that are no longer extant in living systems are of high interest for several reasons including insight into how existing life forms ...
