Distal renal tubular acidosis induced by some SLC4A1 variants is characterized by cytosolic pH alkalization, reduced ATP synthesis and defective autophagy degradative flux.
Visible light engages a non-visual, bZIP-dependent transcriptional pathway in peripheral tissues that communicates with the nervous system to shape behavioral plasticity and memory, enabling optogenetic-like gene control without photoreceptors.
Cyp17a2 enhances antiviral responses in male zebrafish by stabilizing STING through TRIM11-mediated K33-linked polyubiquitination, boosting IFN production.
The RNA-binding protein BICC1 can act as a genetic disease modifier for kidney cyst formation, potentially explaining the high variability of disease onset and severity in autosomal-dominant polycystic kidney disease patients.
