Identifying FMRP-bound mRNAs in hippocampal CA1 pyramidal neurons reveals cell-type specific regulation of autism-candidate and circadian mRNAs and FMRP-mediated control of memory across the circadian cycle.

The southern house mosquito senses the oviposition attractants skatole and indole with two receptor proteins sharing only 50% amino acid identity, and having the residues alanine-73 and leucine-74 in the skatole and indole receptors, respectively, control their specificity.

RORβ is a key layer 4 transcription factor orchestrating a critical juncture in barrel development where terminal differentiation and activity inputs are integrated to drive cellular organization in the cortex.

The major protein disulfide isomerase family member, PDIA1, is essential in beta cells of mice fed a high-fat diet to maintain glucose homeostasis, proinsulin maturation and organelle integrity.

Olfactory neurons of insects, once thought to express only a single type of olfactory receptor, exhibit widespread co-expression of receptors from multiple chemosensory gene families.

The chloroplast 2-cysteine peroxiredoxin is central player and missing link in the chloroplast thiol-disulfide redox regulatory network, and participates in oxidative inactivation of reductively activated enzymes in photosynthesis.

Cd59 and developmental inflammation are key players in myelinating glial cell development, highlighting the collaboration between glia and the innate immune system to ensure normal neural development.

A complex colour polymorphism which links colour with behavioural and life-history traits is associated with a single gene duplication in male wood tiger moths.

In mouse models of Rett syndrome, the impaired cell autonomous BDNF feed forward signaling pathway results in abnormalities in neurite outgrowth and synapse formation in excitatory neurons.

Shank3, a high confidence autism gene candidate, may be a key component of the mechanisms underlying sleep problems in autism.
