  Evaluation Summary:

  Here authors present a robust, high-throughput and genome-wide strategy to identify genes that influence protein localization in individual subcellular compartments. The results profile subsets of genes that are involved in localization of tail-anchored proteins to mitochondrial and endoplasmic reticulum membranes and identify several unexpected regulators. This new tool is adaptable to studying various types of protein trafficking processes to shed light on their molecular mechanisms.

Humans optimally anticipate and compensate for an uneven step during walking

1. Osman Darici

• Curated by eLife

  Evaluation Summary:

  This study provides experimental evidence supporting an energy optimality principle for walking over uneven terrain. Using a simple rimless wheel model of human walking, the authors previously predicted speed fluctuations to emerge when a step up or down when energy is minimized over the entire walking path. New experimental evidence provides evidence that both anticipatory and reactive adjustments used by the nervous system follow the predictions of an energy minimization principle. The predictive power of an energy-minimization principle during transient, non-steady state behavior is notable. Certain issues regarding the generalizability of the results to variable step lengths and timing, alternative optimality criteria, and limitations of the modeling assumptions should be clarified.
