Feathered feet of pigeons and chickens result from a partial molecular and morphological transformation of legs to a wing-like identity.

Gamma-band synchronization behavior in area V1 was predicted by weakly coupled oscillator principles.

When two signals increase transcription of the same gene, their combined effect tends to reflect either the sum of the individual increases or the product of the individual fold-changes.

The zebrafish lateral line utilizes multiple, genetically distinct, independently regulated progenitors to generate new hair cells during homeostasis and regeneration, and to maintain progenitor pools.

Channel activity is a novel regulatory mechanism for channel mobility in the plasma membrane.

Linking deep mutational scanning with engineered transcriptional reporters in human cell lines establishes a generalizable method for exploring pharmacogenomics, structure, and function across broad classes of drug receptors.

Biophysical analyses indicate that Munc18-1, Munc13-1, synaptotagmin-1 and complexin-1 maintain assembled trans-SNARE complexes in the presence of NSF-alphaSNAP, suggesting that they form part of the primed state of synaptic vesicles.

Homeostatic tissue maintenance can occur at locations distinct from the target sites of organ regeneration planarians.

A high throughput, full lifespan microscopic analysis reveals that fission yeast does not age but has a finite replicative lifespan.

New germline gene expression, knockout, and optogenetic tools reveal essential roles for Gα-GPR-1,2/Pins as a regulatable membrane anchor and LIN-5/NuMA as an activator of cortical dynein in mitotic spindle positioning.
