Basal ganglia components have distinct computational roles in decision-making dynamics under conflict and uncertainty. by Nadja R Ging-Jehli, James F Cavanagh, Minkyu Ahn, David J Segar, Wael F Asaad, Michael J Frank

“…Conversely, rapid declines in GPe theta during low conflict conditions were related to rapidly collapsing boundaries and expedited choices, with additional complementary decision bound adjustments during high uncertainty situations. Finally, GPi theta effects were uniform across conditions, with increases in theta associated with a prolongation of decision bound collapses. …”

Pseudovibriamides from Pseudovibrio marine sponge bacteria promote flagellar motility via transcriptional modulation by Yitao Dai, Vitor Lourenzon, Laura P. Ióca, Dua Al-Smadi, Lydia Arnold, Ian McIntire, Roberto G. S. Berlinck, Alessandra S. Eustáquio

“…The data gathered suggest that pseudovibriamides A and B have opposite roles in modulating a subset of genes, with pseudovibriamide B having a primary effect in gene activation, and pseudovibriamide A on inhibition. Finally, we observed many differentially expressed genes (up to 29% of the total gene number) indicating that pseudovibriamides have a global effect on transcription that goes beyond motility.IMPORTANCEMarine sponges are found throughout the oceans from tropical coral reefs to polar sea floors, playing crucial roles in marine ecosystems. …”
