Pick one, but be quick : 5' splice sites and the problems of too many choices by Roca, Xavier, Krainer, Adrian R., Eperon, Ian C.

“…Splice site selection is fundamental to pre-mRNA splicing and the expansion of genomic coding potential. 5′ Splice sites (5′ss) are the critical elements at the 5′ end of introns and are extremely diverse, as thousands of different sequences act as bona fide 5′ss in the human transcriptome. …”

Binding of TCR multimers and a TCR-like antibody with distinct fine-specificities is dependent on the surface density of HLA complexes by Low, Jianrong L., Gehring, Adam J., Kranz, David M., Grotenbreg, Gijsbert M., Yau, Yin Hoe, Shochat, Susana Geifman, Bertoletti, Antonio, Naidoo, Anneta, Yeo, Gladys, Ho, Zi Zong

“…In line with this, we report the construction of a soluble tetrameric form of an αβ T cell receptor (TCR) specific for the HBV epitope Env183–191 restricted by HLA-A*02:01, and compare its avidity and fine-specificity with a TCR-like monoclonal antibody generated against the same HLA target. …”

Reactivating and reorganizing activity-silent working memory: two distinct mechanisms underlying pinging the brain by Yang, C, He, X, Cai, Y

“…Recent studies have proposed that visual information in working memory (WM) can be maintained in an activity-silent state and reactivated by task-irrelevant high-contrast visual impulses (“ping”). Although pinging the brain has become a popular tool for exploring activity-silent WM, its underlying mechanisms remain unclear. …”
