Transitions from Centrosomal to Non-centrosomal Microtubule Organization During Cellular Polarization
Cellular polarization involves significant remodeling and decentralization of the nucleus-associated centrosome to focal points at the apical and... -
Genome-Scale CRISPR Screening for Regulators of Cell Fate Transitions
Knockout CRISPR screening enables the unbiased discovery of genes with a functional role in almost any cellular or molecular process of interest. The... -
Shifts in soil microbial stoichiometry and metabolic quotient provide evidence for a critical tip** point at 1% soil organic carbon in an agricultural post-mining chronosequence
Soil microbial C:N:P stoichiometry and microbial maintenance respiration (i.e. metabolic quotient, qCO 2 ) were monitored along a nutrient gradient in...
