Maternally deposited Piwi-piRNA complexes co-transcriptionally repress transposable elements that transiently become active in somatic cells of the developing Drosophila embryo.
Filamin, by recruiting a signaling complex to the postsynapse, orchestrates the correct formation and growth of postsynaptic membranes and localization of glutamate receptor subunits.
Experiments showed that uniformly white sclera, one distinguishing feature of human eyes, facilitates gaze perception across species, suggesting that this eye feature evolved for conspecific communication in humans.
Fibro-adipogenic progenitors in skeletal muscle contribute to the neuromuscular pathogenesis of spinal muscular atrophy, and depletion of SMN in chondrocytes reduces local IGF sigaling in growth plate.
A method for the genetic manipulation of enteroendocrine cells reveals how different intestinal cell types control food intake and drive post-ingestive learning.
The SP1/KLF transcription factor Huckebein controls endoreplication in the Drosophila salivary gland, ensuring proper morphogenesis during organ formation.
