Ultimate paths of least resistance: Intrinsically disordered links as developmental resets in regulatory protein networks

Alexander V. Badyaev, Carmen Sánchez Moreno, Cody A. Lee…·Renée A. Duckworth

This study shows intrinsically disordered proteins act as reset mechanisms in regulatory networks, enabling developmental transitions by integrating physical and genetic processes.

Amerind ancestry predicts the impact of FADS genetic variation on omega-3 PUFA deficiency, cardiometabolic and inflammatory risk in Hispanic populations

Chaojie Yang, Brian Hallmark, Jin Choul Chai…·Ani W Manichaikul

The paper shows Amerind ancestry is linked to lower LC-PUFA levels and increased cardiometabolic risk in Hispanic populations due to FADS genetic variation.
