Vitamin C supports the differentiation of antibody-secreting cells by remodeling the DNA methylome to enhance STAT3 DNA binding.

Ciliogenesis requires a gap junction protein (GJA1) mediated ciliary vesicle deposition and CP110 removal.

The age-dependent shift of prefrontal excitation-inhibition (E-I) ratio toward inhibition causes sparser and decorrelated activity, while its impairment might relate to neurodevelopmental disorders.

Tracking proteins in live cells is challenging due to technical limitations and biological complexity, but approaches based in Bayesian nonparametrics stand a decent chance at recovering a target protein's dynamic profile from noisy data.

A viral heliorhodopsin from Emiliania huxleyi virus 202 (V2HeR3) is a light-activated proton transporter, which has the potential to depolarize the host cells by light, possibly to overcome the host defense mechanisms or to prevent superinfection.

Structural, functional, and genetic analyses reveal how kinesin-4 motor KLP-12 precisely modulates the curvature of the microtubule plus-end to inhibit the microtubule dynamics for achieving the proper length control of axons.

A deep learning-based image classification pipeline unleashes automated division counting and replicative lifespan analyses of single cells growing in microfluidic cellular traps.

Comparing the relative similarity of cellular molecules to alternate templates allows classification of related complexes in the cell using fewer particles than needed for 3D classification and is more practicable for low abundance complexes.

Local ATP production by the plasma membrane-associated glycolytic enzyme pyruvate kinase is essential for the nutrient-dependent closure of the ATP-sensitive potassium channels that initiate insulin release from pancreatic β-cells.

Systematic analysis of behavioral maturation in the Caenorhabditis elegans embryo reveals a stereotyped developmental progression, including rhythmic behavioral quiescence elicited by a sleep-promoting neuron (RIS) releasing somnogenic peptides (FLP-11).
