Coronavirus circulation and cross-species transmission in European bats: a new paradigm in betacoronaviruses

This study identifies coronavirus diversity and transmission dynamics in European bats, revealing new host associations and ecological factors facilitating cross-species transmission.

Revised evolutionary relationships within Brachycera and the early origin of bicoid in flies

The paper uses genomic data from 186 dipteran species to show bicoid exists in non-cyclorrhaphan flies and originated in the common ancestor of Bombyliidae, Asiloidea, and Eremoneura.

Exploring functional conservation in silico: a new machine learning approach to RNA-editing

The paper introduces a machine learning approach to assess RNA-editing functional conservation using random forest and biLSTM networks, predicting editing events and analyzing conservation across species.

Deficiency of the ywhaz gene, involved in neurodevelopmental disorders, alters brain activity and behaviour in zebrafish

This study shows that ywhaz gene deficiency in zebrafish affects brain activity and behavior, with altered neuronal connectivity and monoamine levels.

Analysis of Fox genes in Schmidtea mediterranea reveals new families and a conserved role of Smed-foxO in controlling cell death.

This study identifies and characterizes Fox genes in Schmidtea mediterranea, revealing new families and a conserved role of Smed-foxO in cell death regulation.
