Adenine base editors (ABEs) are CRISPR effectors that introduce A-T to G-C transitions in the genome using a nucleotide deaminase fused to a Cas protein. ABEs have been evolved to have very high editing efficiency, but off-target editing effects comp...
Place and time cells are widely thought to provide complementary representations of spatial location and elapsed time in the hippocampus. Recent experiments reported CA1 neurons whose place and time fields shift systematically with running speed, sug...
Background. The emergence of donor-specific antibodies (DSA) against HLA-DQ reduces graft survival and limits future transplant options. Current practice predicts DSA development from HLA antigen mismatches or unique eplet counts (HLAMatchmaker), but...
Human DNA replicates according to a precise schedule: certain regions are replicated early, while others replicate later in the cell cycle. The DNA sequence and the epigenome are both indicative for replication timing (RT), their relative contributio...
Cells sense and integrate extracellular cues through intracellular signaling networks that reshape transcription factor activity to dictate cellular responses. Signaling activity is difficult to decipher: it is non-linear, and it contains extensive f...
Large-scale brain mapping increasingly relies on integrating histological imaging datasets within standardized anatomical reference frameworks. To accomplish this, registration techniques are used to align imaging datasets between different modalitie...
Gene-therapy design depends on identifying regulatory sequences that drive the right level, timing, and cell-type specificity of expression. Regulatory DNA models offer a way to prioritize such sequences computationally before committing candidates t...
Generative artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a powerful framework for drug discovery, yet most current approaches follow one-drug-one-gene target-based paradigms that struggle to capture the complexity and heterogeneity of chronic and syste...
Spike-timing-dependent plasticity (STDP) and dopamine (DA) are fundamental to reward-based learning and memory formation. A widely used DA-modulated STDP model explains how neural networks associate stimuli with delayed dopaminergic rewards through a...
Microbiomes are information-rich biological systems, yet most computational analyses still reduce communities to cohort-specific abundance tables. Here we introduce MGM2, a multimodal foundation model pretrained on 1,821,291 MicrobeAtlas samples and ...
