Adaptation of domesticated maize and its wild relative teosinte has been facilitated by the geographically widespread exchange of beneficial alleles between them.

In P3 editing, molecular interactions are sensed and converted directly into genome editing events, which may be useful for biological recording and synthetic molecular circuits deployed in living cells.

Functional subpopulations of β-cells emerge to control pulsative insulin secretion in the pancreatic islets of mice through calcium oscillations.

The light-modulated protein kinase CDK5 is important for phase shifts of the circadian clock, impacting phase delays through calcium influx and signaling pathways, crucial for adapting to jet lag.

Ezrin controls endo-lysosomal signaling by maintaining TSC inhibition through EGFR signaling, activating mTORC1, and inhibiting lysosomal function, unveiling a critical endosome–lysosome network essential for autophagy and cellular homeostasis.
