From junk to function — How weak selection in eukaryotes builds new parts and drives genomic complexity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
How do genomes gain new functional parts? In eukaryotes, which tend to evolve under weak selection, much of the genome is junk. Palazzo and Qiu borrow the logic of Markov chains to show how non‐functional DNA becomes functional through the appearance of intermediate states, which arise due to epistasis, buffering, and biochemical messiness, allowing ...

Soft motions encoded by the fold and mediated by conserved hinge sites drive V‐ATPase allosteric machinery and autoinhibition

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Vacuolar H+‐ATPase (V‐ATPase) is a multisubunit rotary proton pump that acidifies intracellular compartments. Using elastic network models, we identified conserved hinge residues that govern its large‐scale functional motions. We show that intrinsically encoded ‘soft modes’ drive critical functional transitions, including rotary catalysis and ...

What can functional transcranial Doppler ultrasonography reveal about the cerebral lateralization of writing

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Which brain hemisphere controls writing? This review synthesizes all five functional transcranial Doppler studies of writing (handwriting and typing) published to date in adults and children. Right‐handers show left‐hemispheric dominance for the linguistic component of writing (written word generation), whereas findings for left‐handers remain ...
