Nuclear condensates play many important roles in chromatin functions, but how cells regulate their nucleation and growth within the complex nuclear environment is not well understood. Here, we report ...

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 ...

Astrocytic ER calcium release and gap junction communication exhibit circadian modulation driven by HERPUD1, highlighting the importance of astrocytic circadian rhythms in brain function.

Kokumi refers to the enhanced and more delicious state of food flavor. However, the underlying neuroscientific mechanisms remain largely unexplored. Our previous research demonstrated that ornithine ...

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 ...

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.

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 ...

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 ...

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.
