Targeted recruitment of protein kinase A subunits enables distinctive regulation of the functional expression of a potassium channel depending on whether the enzyme is targeted to a pore-forming or auxiliary subunit.
A near-linear relationship between electrical stimulus duration and resultant joint torque in stick insects has been unveiled, enhancing control strategies in biohybrid robotics.
By leveraging quantitative environmental DNA metabarcoding and ecological network analysis, influential organisms in rice fields are identified, thereby revealing potential avenues for environmentally friendly agricultural practices.
Meiosis-specific cohesin complexes differing in their kleisin subunit display different chromosome binding dynamics and perform specialised functions in sister chromatid cohesion, chromosome axis organisation, and double-strand break repair.
