Conserved molecular recognition by an intrinsically disordered region in the absence of sequence conservation

The paper investigates how sequence variation in intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) can still encode functional specificity in RNA binding, using coronavirus nucleocapsid proteins as a model.

Roost selection by male northern long-eared bats (Myotis septentrionalis) in a managed fire-adapted forest

The paper identifies factors influencing roost site selection by male northern long-eared bats in a managed forest, finding that larger, more decayed trees and dense canopy cover are preferred.
