Scientists reprogram ant behavior using brain molecules

From the bright lights of cities that don’t sleep — where people hustle and bustle through the night to keep subways, servers, and supply chains alive — to the whisper-dark understory of tropical forests where ants hum in syncopated lines, the planet’s most intricate societies hinge on round-the-clock cooperation and finely tuned roles. Within Atta […]

Mammals didn’t walk upright until late—here’s what fossils reveal

For over a century, scientists have puzzled over a fundamental mystery in our evolutionary history: how did mammals go from sprawling like lizards to striding like cats and dogs? This transition — from a sprawled stance (like a lizard) to an upright (parasagittal) posture — marked a pivotal moment in mammal evolution. While the earliest […]

A coordinated kinase and phosphatase network regulates Stu2 recruitment to yeast kinetochores

Cells coordinate diverse events at anaphase onset, including separase activation, cohesin cleavage, chromosome separation, and spindle reorganization. Regulation of the XMAP215 family member and microtubule polymerase, Stu2, at the metaphase-anaphase transition determines a redistribution from kinetochores to spindle microtubules. We show that cells modulate Stu2 kinetochore-microtubule localization by Polo-like kinase1/Cdc5-mediated phosphorylation of T866, near the […]

Skull study shows Chicago’s rodents are rapidly evolving

In general, evolution is a long, slow process of tiny changes passed down over generations, resulting in new adaptations and even new species over thousands or millions of years. But when living things are faced with dramatic shifts in the world around them, they sometimes rapidly adapt to better survive. Scientists recently found an example […]
