The conformational state of a structural protein in bacteria can vary, depending on the concentration level of potassium ions or the nucleotide bound to it.

Differential agonist-induced phosphorylation of free fatty acid receptor 2 is shown in different tissues of transgenic mice engineered to express variant forms of the human ortholog of the receptor.

Based on two independent methods, mitochondria operate at temperatures up to 15°C hotter than ambient, adjusting their heat production so as to maintain temperature in face of physiological stresses.

Phylogenetic and biochemical analysis reveals crucial role of two substitutions in the α–crystallin domain for development of new functionality of IbpA chaperone after the loss of paralogous IbpB in Erwiniaceae.

In C. elegans, neuronic TRPA-1 senses bacterial accumulation by detecting indole production to up-regulate lysozyme genes via FOXO/DAF-16 in the intestine, thereby delaying microbial dysbiosis.

Open science and consensus antibody validation protocols can identify high-quality, renewable antibodies for the ~50% of the human proteome currently covered, enabling robust and reproducible biomedical research.

Six-transmembrane epithelial antigen of the prostate isoform 1 (STEAP1) can establish a physiologically relevant electron transfer chain and STEAP2 can transfer electrons via a diffusible FAD mechanism.
