The yeast nuclear endonuclease Rnt1 has a well-characterized role in the maturation of many ncRNA precursors. However, the scope and consequence of its function in mRNA degradation pathways is much ...

Complex traits are influenced by genes and the environment, but especially the latter is difficult to pin down. This important study uses C. elegans to demonstrate that non-genetic differences in gene ...

This manuscript introduces a useful protein-stability-based fitness model for simulating protein evolution and unifying non-neutral models of molecular evolution with phylogenetic models. The model is ...

Somatic hypermutation (SHM) of immunoglobulin variable (V) regions modulates antibody-antigen affinity is initiated by activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) on single-stranded DNA (ssDNA).

This study presents a valuable finding on how the locus coeruleus modulates the involvement of medial prefrontal cortex in set shifting using calcium imaging. The evidence supporting the claims was ...

Nearly half of sequencing data labeled as endometriosis lacks true disease representation, highlighting the urgent need for more diverse and accurate tissue sampling to advance research in this ...

Presynaptic NMDA receptors can shape timing-dependent long-term depression in a way that departs from their classic postsynaptic role.

This important study provides evidence for asymptomatic Bordetella pertussis carriage among mothers in a longitudinal cohort in Zambia, significantly advancing understanding of transmission dynamics.

Viral-mediated Oct4 overexpression induces direct conversion of wildtype mammalian Müller glia to bipolar neurons, and this process is synergistically enhanced by loss of Notch signaling.

The breakdown of glutamine is an important metabolic pathway for the health and survival of rod photoreceptors within the retina.

The authors confirm that telomeres in telomerase-positive cells terminate with 5'-ATC in a Pot1-dependent manner, and demonstrate that this principle holds true in telomerase-negative ALT cells as ...

This study presents a valuable meta-analysis that highlights low and highly variable breast cancer survival rates across Africa, emphasizing the pressing need for public health in Africa. The evidence ...
