Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy as a Convenient Tool to Characterize Tethered Bilayer Membranes
In this paper, we describe the application of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) to characterize process of formation and properties of... -
Mechanisms of microtubule organization in differentiated animal cells
Microtubules are polarized cytoskeletal filaments that serve as tracks for intracellular transport and form a scaffold that positions organelles and...

Comparative proteome analysis identifies species-specific signature proteins in Aspergillus pathogens
AbstractAspergillus flavus and Aspergillus fumigatus are important human pathogens that can infect the lung and cornea. During infection, Aspergillus ...

Subunit Architecture and Atomic Structure of Voltage-Gated Ca2+ Channels
Voltage-gated calcium channels mediate calcium entry into cells in response to membrane depolarization. The high-voltage-activated Ca2+ channels that... -
Ribosomal RNA regulates chromosome clustering during mitosis
Noncoding RNAs are known to associate with mitotic chromosomes, but the identities and functions of chromosome-associated RNAs in mitosis remain...

NUA and ESD4 negatively regulate ABA signaling during seed germination
The phytohormone abscisic acid (ABA) plays important roles in plant growth, development and adaptative responses to abiotic stresses. SNF1-related...

Syntactic rules predict song type matching in a songbird
AbstractSong type matching has been hypothesized to be a graded signal of aggression; however, it is often the case that variation in matching...

Whisker spots on polar bears reveal increasing fluctuating asymmetry
Developmental instability resulting from environmental or genetic stress is often measured through fluctuating asymmetry, the minor, random...

Epithelial zonation along the mouse and human small intestine defines five discrete metabolic domains
A key aspect of nutrient absorption is the exquisite division of labour across the length of the small intestine, with individual nutrients taken up...

PhaseDancer: a novel targeted assembler of segmental duplications unravels the complexity of the human chromosome 2 fusion going from 48 to 46 chromosomes in hominin evolution
Resolving complex genomic regions rich in segmental duplications (SDs) is challenging due to the high error rate of long-read sequencing. Here, we...
