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.
Extracellular DNA degrades at markedly different rates across soils and sequences, substantially biasing estimates of prokaryotic abundance, diversity, and community composition.
Noradrenergic tone varies with arousal state, is inversely correlated with hippocampal ripple and sleep spindle oscillations, and differs according to ripple–spindle coupling, with potential implications for synaptic and systems consolidation.
Multimodal data-driven computational modeling reveals that realistic cortical connectivity can generate more macroscopic traveling waves than local or uniform connectivity in the mouse cortex.
Squidly enables efficient identification of enzyme catalytic residues by integrating functional hierarchies into a contrastive learning framework, requiring only protein sequences to produce scalable predictions across the known enzyme landscape.

Simultaneously knocking down both the insulin and IGF1 receptor in the kidney podocyte is highly detrimental, affecting spliceosome function and gene transcription.
Computational modeling and human pilot study present a mechanistic framework explaining the capacity for transcutaneous tibial nerve stimulation to induce excitatory or inhibitory effects based on electrical stimulation frequency alone.

Cryogenic electron microscopy of cellular extracts can visualize atomic details and discover new interactions between biological molecules, such as the interactions of the ribosome, the protein-making machinery, with essential proteins to regulate cellular functions.
Vocalizations of nonhuman primates, especially when acoustic and phylogenetic proximity is the highest, enhance human brain activity in the anterior temporal lobe.
