The phase of cortical activity, measured in the gray matter, is organized at multiple spatial scales, with the largest scales explaining most variance in phase at a given temporal frequency.
A system to enrich yeast in metaphase of mitosis, meiosis I, or meiosis II reveals reduced spindle assembly checkpoint robustness in meiosis I and distinct kinetochore composition and phosphorylation states.
Detecting replay during longer time periods (e.g. resting state or sleep) with temporally delayed linear modeling (TDLM) requires biologically implausible event densities, and purely synthetic simulations substantially overestimate the method's sensitivity.
A genetic toolkit establishes Drosophila as a tractable metazoan system for systematic interrogation of conserved biological functions of the ancient polymer polyphosphate.
Structural characterization of the CTLH-CRA domain-mediated pairing in the CTLH ubiquitin ligase complex enables rational engineering of interfaces with altered binding specificity.
Direct survival benefits in larger groups rather than kin-selected indirect fitness primarily drive the evolution of division of labor in cooperatively breeding vertebrates, particularly under harsh environmental conditions.
