Structural characterization of the CTLH-CRA domain-mediated pairing in the CTLH ubiquitin ligase complex enables rational engineering of interfaces with altered binding specificity.
A genetic toolkit establishes Drosophila as a tractable metazoan system for systematic interrogation of conserved biological functions of the ancient polymer polyphosphate.
Analysis of scRNA-seq data from primate embryoid bodies highlights the value of cross-species comparisons for identifying and characterizing cell types, as marker genes can evolve fast.
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.
Elucidation of the Hox code defining forelimb positioning provides novel insights into lateral plate mesoderm patterning and the integration of vertebrate column structure and limb positioning.
