Article Abstract

A growing community is constructing a next-generation file format (NGFF) for bioimaging to overcome problems of scalability and heterogeneity. Organized by the Open Microscopy Environment (OME), individuals and institutes across diverse modalities facing these problems have designed a format specification process (OME-NGFF) to address these needs. This paper brings together a wide range of those community members to describe the cloud-optimized format itself -- OME-Zarr -- along with tools and data resources available today to increase FAIR access and remove barriers in the scientific process. The current momentum offers an opportunity to unify a key component of the bioimaging domain -- the file format that underlies so many personal, institutional, and global data management and analysis tasks.

Agonist-induced interaction of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) with β-arrestins (βarrs) is a critical mechanism that regulates the spatiotemporal pattern of receptor localization and signaling. While the underlying mechanism governing GPCR-βarr interaction is primarily conserved and involves receptor activation and phosphorylation, there are several examples of receptor-specific fine-tuning of βarr-mediated functional outcomes. Considering the key contribution of conformational plasticity of βarrs in driving receptor-specific functional responses, it is important to develop novel sensors capable of reporting distinct βarr conformations in cellular context.

Summary: MOLEonline is an interactive, web-based tool designed to detect and analyse channels (pores and tunnels) within protein structures. The latest version of MOLEonline addresses the limitations of its predecessor by integrating the Mol* viewer for visualisation and offering a streamlined, fully interactive user experience. The new features include colouring tunnels in the 3D viewer based on their physicochemical properties.

The ImageJ plugin CiliaQ developed by Hansen and colleagues (Hansen et al., 2021) provides for sophisticated analysis of ciliary parameters in three-dimensional space. However, midbodies and other non-ciliary structures can contaminate the output and require significant effort to remove.

Background: Hypertension is a major risk factor for cardiovascular (CV) health in Native Americans (NAs), contributing to disparities in mortality, hospitalizations, and complications that include stroke and kidney diseases. However, despite the benefits of lifestyle modifications for CV health, systemic and cultural barriers hinder their adoption. To promote self-care behaviors, interventions must be culturally tailored and sustainable.

Background: Genomic variations, including single-nucleotide polymorphisms, small insertions and deletions, and structural variations, are crucial for understanding evolution and disease. However, comprehensive simulation tools for benchmarking genomic analysis methods are lacking. Existing simulators do not accurately represent the nonuniform distribution and length patterns of structural variations in human genomes, and simulating complex structural variations remains challenging.
