Assembly and budding of a virus from a membrane microdomain
Assembly and Budding of a Virus from a Membrane Microdomain - Viruses have an outer protein shell (called a capsid) that surrounds the viral nucleic acid. Enveloped viruses, such as HIV, have an addit...
This video is of the model furrow formation, which captures the lengthening and shortening dynamics that are observed in vivo. The color bar shows the forces that are active in the model furrow....
Establishing Motor Neuron Topology - Locomotion depends on the establishment of specific connections between motor neurons and muscle. In this video abstract, Jeremy Dasen and colleagues take you on a...
Takaki Komiyama and colleagues used chronic two-photon calcium imaging to explore how wakefulness and experience shape odor representations in the mouse olfactory bulb. Their observations reveal the d...
Orbitofrontal Cortex: Prediction and Evaluation of Behavioral Outcomes
Orbitofrontal Cortex: Prediction and Evaluation of Behavioral Outcomes - The orbitofrontal cortex has long been associated with concepts like impulsivity, self-control, and emotion regulation. Here we...
John McCutcheon and colleagues show that, in some cicada species, a three-way symbiosis involving one insect and two bacterial symbionts has resulted in a four-way assemblage through an unusual bacter...
De Novo Coding Variants Are Strongly Associated With Tourette Disorder
De Novo Coding Variants Are Strongly Associated With Tourette Disorder. New research led by UC San Francisco scientists Jeremy Willsey and Matthew State has identified four likely risk genes with mult...
Jin et al. present HEMNMA method that allows more extensive analyses of gradual conformational changes in large macromolecular complexes from electron microscopy images. The featured movie captures an...
Dopamine: Motivation, Salience and Learning - A Genetic Perspective
Decision making is impacted by risk. Masaaki Ogawa and colleagues in the laboratory of Geoffrey Schoenbaum find that activity of risk-responsive neurons in the orbitofrontal cortex track salience bett...
Getting Paid What You're Worth. Evelyn Murphy speaks about “How to get paid what you’re worth” at the Cell Press/AWIS LabLinks meeting on The Gender of Science and the Science of Gender held on Thursd...
Cascade Defense Tactics/Cell, Oct. 29, 2015 (Vol. 163, Issue 4) - CRISPR defends bacteria against viral invasion by recognizing the viral DNA sequence. What if virus mutates the sequence? The paper by...
