Sequential expression of two transcription factors that bind to five- and ten-base female-specific cis-acting elements, respectively, promotes differentiation of Plasmodium female gametocytes.

Disulfide-bridged fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2) dimerization at the inner plasma membrane leaflet produces the building block for higher FGF2 oligomers that drive FGF2 membrane translocation into the extracellular space.

Computational analyses and biochemical measurements redefine the mechanisms by which pyrin-only-proteins specifically target and regulate the assembly of inflammasomes.

Mitochondrial RNAs attach to chromatin and regulate nuclear transcription in endothelial stress response.

Native mass spectrometry reveals the thermodynamic basis for high-affinity lipid binding to the ABC transporter MsbA.

Engineering new intrabodies allows to develop selective and non-interfering tools for the visualization of endogenous PSD-95 with advanced imaging techniques.

Purkinje cell inputs onto cerebellar nuclei (CbN) neurons have highly variable strengths, which allow them to influence CbN firing in a graded manner, with the largest individual inputs effectively regulating both the rate and spike timing of CbN neuron firing.

Theoretical explanation and a novel mechanism are given for the observation that viscosity of embryonic non-confluent tissue shows glass-like behavior till a critical cell density and saturates at higher densities.

There is a significant disadvantage to receive a major grant (i.e., R01) for K99/R00 awardees that are women, those at lower funded institutions, and those with lower career mobility.

The binding of transcription factors to mesoscale chromatin fibers leads to microdomains whose features are dependent on the linker DNA length, linker histone density, and tail acetylation levels.
