Hornet-eating frog shows remarkable venom resistance

Hornet-eating frog shows remarkable venom resistance

A frog with an unexpectedly strong resistance to venom has been identified, and it routinely eats hornets despite the insects’ dangerous stingers. Researchers believe this species may become a useful model organism for exploring how animals develop tolerance to venom. For many people, even glimpsing a hornet’s stinger is enough to cause alarm. Yet certain […]

High-resolution mapping of the actin fusion focus reveals myosin V–dependent formin transport for aster formation

Many processes such as polarized growth and secretion require specific actin networks. In fungi, cell–cell fusion requires cell wall digestion mediated by local secretion of lytic enzymes. In Schizosaccharomyces pombe, the myosin V Myo52 transports enzyme-containing secretory vesicles on the actin fusion focus, an aster-like actin network assembled by the condensate-forming formin Fus1. The fusion […]

The hidden harm from salmon farming

In addition to parasites, pathogens, chemical residues, and other treatments can persist in cages. Fallow sites are expected to undergo complete removal of fish and nets to limit pathogen carryover. Campaigners, however, say the Aird site “continued functioning as a reservoir of disease and flesh-eating lice.” Read: The catch. Unsustainable Abigail Penny, executive director of […]
