Disease associated mutations in tau encode for changes in aggregate structure conformation

This study shows that disease-associated tau mutations alter the structure of tau aggregates, revealing new insights into their pathological mechanisms.

Nonadaptive radiation of the gut microbiome in an adaptive radiation of Cyprinodon pupfishes with minor shifts for scale-eating

The paper compares gut microbiota of specialized and generalist Cyprinodon pupfishes, finding minor adaptive shifts in scale-eaters but overall phylogenetic conservation, suggesting nonadaptive microbiome divergence.
