A G protein in striatal neurons forms preassembled complexes with its downstream enzyme, adenylyl cyclase, which has implications for the pathophysiology of movement disorders.

In nematode worms, the length of the male refractory period–the time between matings–is regulated by multiple transmitters including dopamine, which both promotes ejaculation and reduces the activity of males post-copulation.

Differences in the kinetics of G protein activation can explain why only some receptors can activate potassium ion channels called GIRKs.

Despite employing diverse molecular mechanisms, many different cell signaling systems avoid losing information by transmitting it in a linear manner.

The availability of almost all articles from toll access journals in the Sci-Hub repository will disrupt scholarly publishing towards more open models.

Signals from two different membrane proteins are combined to modulate how strongly sensory neurons respond to mechanical force.

Harnessing female sex hormones may improve how all patients with melanoma respond to treatment.

Scientific abstracts have become less readable over the past 130 years, in part because recent texts include more general scientific jargon than older texts.
