As always on Friday, there are new article published in the community journals - PLoS Pathogens, PLoS Computational Biology and PLoS Genetics. Here are few of my picks:

Growth of H5N1 Influenza A Viruses in the Upper Respiratory Tracts of Mice

A Single Mutation in the PB1-F2 of H5N1 (HK/97) and 1918 Influenza A Viruses Contributes to Increased Virulence

Universally Sloppy Parameter Sensitivities in Systems Biology Models

Ancient Exaptation of a CORE-SINE Retroposon into a Highly Conserved Mammalian Neuronal Enhancer of the Proopiomelanocortin Gene

Mythbuster Adam Savage sets the yawning in motion in Mythbusters attempts to start a yawning epidemic across the globe Did watching that video make you yawn?…
Second Light: Herschel and Hubble together
Just a few weeks ago, the Herschel Telescope was launched into space and successfully deployed. Herschel is larger than the Hubble Space Telescope, but instead of measuring visible light, it measures far-infrared light. This means that, when you look at any object in the Universe, the Hubble Space Telescope sees (mostly) visible light, or light between 400 and 700 nanometers. What gives off…
