    A species-level timeline of mammal evolution integrating phylogenomic data

    High-throughput sequencing projects generate genome-scale sequence data for species-level phylogenies13. However, state-of-the-art Bayesian methods for inferring timetrees are computationally limited to small da...

    Bayesian Phylogenomic Dating

    The development of divergence-time estimation methods has been an active area of research since the early 1960s, when the molecular clock was first postulated by Zuckerkandl and Pauling. Thanks to technologica...

    The bile salt glycocholate induces global changes in gene and protein expression and activates virulence in enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli

    Pathogenic bacteria use specific host factors to modulate virulence and stress responses during infection. We found previously that the host factor bile and the bile component glyco-conjugated cholate (NaGCH, ...
