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 interesting study presents valuable information on how human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection disrupts the activity of the TEAD1 transcription factor, leading to widespread chromatin alterations.

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 ...

During rest and sleep, memory traces replay in the brain. The dialogue between brain regions during replay is thought to stabilize labile memory traces for long-term storage. However, because replay ...

This valuable study reports the first characterization of the CG14545 gene in Drosophila melanogaster, which the authors name "Sakura." Acting during germline stem cell fate and differentiation, ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

WNKs sense osmotic pressure by binding specific water molecules to the inactive dimeric configuration of WNK1 and WNK3, integrating signals with chloride inhibition as demonstrated by mutagenesis and ...
