Structural and biochemical analyses reveal how E. coli FtsEX accommodates EnvC asymmetry to regulate amidase activation during bacterial cell division.

Surprisingly, monitoring single bacteria expressing constitutive or flagellar genes reveals faster growth, a benefit driven by inherited, cost-free growth factors, whereas bulk measurements show an expected net fitness cost.

Identical pyramidal neuron synapses use distinct presynaptic calcium influx-transmitter release coupling architectures in prefrontal and primary somatosensory cortices, shaping synaptic properties to support area-specific cortical functions.

During the establishment of size-based dominance hierarchies in clown anemonefish, an individual's social context shapes its growth trajectory through coordinated changes in feeding behavior, aggressive behaviors, and gene expression.

Mosquito-pool Ct values reflect biologically meaningful variation in viral load, while integrating viral kinetics improves prevalence estimates and helps distinguish potentially infectious from non-infectious mosquitoes.

In insects, foxQ2 is part of the genetic code that specifies neurons contributing to the higher-order brain centers, including dopaminergic and other fast-acting neurons.

Planetary and habitat-specific environmental cues combine to induce rapid and extensive changes in chromatin state and gene expression necessary for larval settlement and metamorphosis in the marine sponge Amphimedon queenslandica.

GCN2 can be pharmacologically activated independently of GCN1, revealing flexibility in the mechanisms governing kinase activation.

Computational analyses of large datasets and molecular dissection reveal the promoter organisation of the osteoblast marker entpd5a and suggest novel regulators of osteogenesis.

Salinity does not alter nutrient resorption efficiency, which is instead shaped by phylogeographic history and latitude.
