Metabolic reprogramming underlies cavefish muscular endurance despite loss of muscle mass and contractility

L. Olsen, M. Levy, J. K. Medley, H. Hassan, R. Alexander, E. Wilcock, K. Yi, L. Florens, S. McKinney, R. Peuss, J. Persons, A. Kenzior, E. Maldonado, A. Gluesenkamp, E. Mager, , N. Rohner

This paper shows cavefish have reduced muscle mass and contractility but increased muscular endurance due to metabolic reprogramming involving glycogen utilization.

The Arabidopsis bZIP19 and bZIP23 transcription factors act as zinc-sensors to control plant zinc status

G. H. Lilay, D. Persson, P. H. Castro, F. Liao, R. Alexander, M. G. Aarts, A. G. Assuncao

This study identifies bZIP19 and bZIP23 as Zn-sensors in Arabidopsis that regulate Zn homeostasis by binding Zn2+ ions, leading to increased plant and seed Zn accumulation when Zn binding is disrupted.

Mechanics Of Flight Feathers: Effects Of Captivity?

S. Portugal, R. Nudds, J. Green, R. Alexander, P. Butler, R. Ker

The paper compares flight feather stiffness and size between wild and captive Barnacle Geese and feathers dropped versus regrown during moult, finding wild feathers are stiffer despite long-distance migration.
