Connexin43 is the most ubiquitously expressed connexin in the human body, and the CO2-dependent opening of Connexin43 hemichannels implies that CO2 may influence many physiological processes.
A range of biophysical techniques is used in combination with computational analysis to understand whether glutamine-binding protein binds its ligand via the induced-fit or conformational selection mechanism.

A cognitive adaptation in Heliconius butterflies, accompanied by strikingly divergent changes in two principal insect integration centres, reveals that neural circuits can differ strongly in their propensity for evolutionary change.
A conserved kinase network links nutrient sensing to chromosome segregation and gene regulation by modulating cohesin dynamics through phosphorylation.
TrASPr+BOS enables accurate prediction and design of tissue-specific RNA splicing, even for tissues not trained on, uncovering unseen regulatory elements and guiding sequence edits that reshape splicing outcomes.
