This work will be of high interest to a broad swathe of scientists studying native macromolecules present at low concentrations in cells. Cryo-EM single-particle analyses typically require target ...
Spatial patterns in genetic diversity are shaped by individuals dispersing from their parents and larger-scale population movements. It has long been appreciated that these patterns of movement shape ...
The majority of highly polymorphic genes are related to immune functions and with over 100 alleles within a population, genes of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) are the most polymorphic ...
A new gene-editing tool enables precise study of the variable proteins that allow malaria parasites to stick to red blood cells and evade the immune system.
This manuscript provides fundamental studies to help us better understand the effects of mutations in the presenilin-1 (PSEN1) gene on proteolytic processing of the amyloid precursor protein (APP).
High mutational load tumors mitigate effects from protein-damaging mutations by up-regulating complexes that buffer against misfolding stress, revealing therapeutic vulnerabilities and suggesting ...
This study utilizes an elegant approach to examine valence encoding of the mesolimbic dopamine system. The findings are valuable, demonstrating differential responses of dopamine to the same taste ...
We can now collect cell-count data across whole animal brains quantifying recent neuronal activity, gene expression, or anatomical connectivity. This is a powerful approach since it is a multi-region ...
Mice can generate a cognitive map of an environment based on self-motion signals when there is a fixed association between their starting point and the location of their goal.
Given their non-migratory nature within the mineralized matrix, their unique dendrites are crucial for cell-to-cell communication in response to both intracellular and extracellular stimuli, such as ...
