Research Articles published by eLife are full-length studies that present important breakthroughs across the life sciences and biomedicine. There is no maximum length and no limits on the number of display items.
Whole-cell recordings paired with a network model show that post-inhibitory rebound excitation in premotor neurons couples intrinsic excitability to the temporal structure of learned birdsong.
The viral type 2 internal ribosome entry site uses a unique mechanism to hijack the host ribosomal machinery by interacting with initiator tRNA and 40S head.
Rather than exerting a uniform influence, arousal modulates the connectome through a structured, low-dimensional community architecture characterized by discrete topological patterns and intrinsic hemispheric asymmetries.
Human midbrain organoids provide a foundation for the development of patient-specific preclinical models to support personalized therapeutic approaches and enable evaluation of disease mechanisms and therapeutic strategies in human context.

The IFT172 C-terminus bridges IFT-A and IFT-B complexes through mutually exclusive interactions with IFT140 and IFT144, and harbors a U-box-like domain linking intraflagellar transport to ubiquitin-dependent ciliary signaling.
Queuing theory links multiplicity of infection (MOI) to force of infection (FOI), enabling the estimation of transmission intensity for falciparum malaria (and other infectious diseases) from sparsely sampled surveys.

Coregulator TR-FRET profiling reveals ligand-specific LXR signaling signatures that can guide the therapeutic design of ABCA1-inducing LXR agonists with attenuated risk of hepatic lipogenesis.
