Biology Rewrite Longitudinal profiling of low-abundance strains in microbiomes with The ability to detect and quantify microbiota over time from shotgun metagenomic data has a plethora of clinical, basic science and public health applications. Given these applications, and the observation that pathogens and other taxa of interest can reside at low relative abundance, there is a critical need for algorithms that accurately profile low-abundance microbial […] Written by Bioengineer May 6, 2025May 6, 2025 Saving Bookmark this article Bookmarked
Biology MTMR regulates KRAS function by controlling plasma membrane levels of phospholipids KRAS, a small GTPase involved in cell proliferation and differentiation, frequently gains activating mutations in human cancers. For KRAS to function, it must bind the plasma membrane (PM) via interactions between its membrane anchor and phosphatidylserine (PtdSer). Therefore, depleting PM PtdSer abrogates KRAS PM binding and activity. From a genome-wide siRNA screen to identify genes […] Written by Admin May 5, 2025May 5, 2025 Saving Bookmark this article Bookmarked
Biology Rising Anal Cancer Rates Most Pronounced Among Older White and Hispanic In recent years, the landscape of anal cancer incidence in the United States has revealed surprising and concerning trends, with new research uncovering a notable rise among older women, particularly within white and Hispanic populations. This finding challenges longstanding assumptions about the demographics traditionally considered at highest risk for this rare but serious malignancy, prompting […] Written by Bioengineer May 3, 2025May 3, 2025 Saving Bookmark this article Bookmarked
Biology A cortical pool of LIN-5 (NuMA) controls cytokinetic furrow formation and cytokinesis completion In animal cells, cleavage furrow formation is controlled by localized activation of the GTPase RhoA at the equatorial membrane using cues transmitted from the spindle. Here, we explore the function of LIN-5, a well-studied protein known for its role in aster separation and spindle positioning in cleavage furrow formation. We show that the cortical pool […] Written by Admin May 1, 2025May 1, 2025 Saving Bookmark this article Bookmarked
Biology Lanthanide–Nickel Complexes with Ligand-Free Ni2− Anion In a groundbreaking development at the crossroads of inorganic chemistry and materials science, researchers have unveiled a novel class of lanthanide–nickel molecular intermetallic complexes that push the boundaries of traditional transition metal chemistry. Central to this discovery is the stabilization of a notoriously elusive species: a ligand-free nickel anion bearing a formal negative oxidation state […] Written by Bioengineer April 29, 2025April 29, 2025 Saving Bookmark this article Bookmarked
Biology A multifunction murine Col4a1 allele reveals potential gene therapy parameters for Gould syndrome Basement membranes (BMs) are specialized extracellular matrix (ECM) structures essential for organ morphogenesis, architecture, and function. BM composition and properties vary between tissues, developmental stages, and disease states, and there is only a rudimentary understanding of BM dynamics.
