Disparity of turbinal bones in placental mammals
The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 4, Page 749-777, April 2026.Abstract Turbinals are key bony elements of the mammalian nasal cavity, involved in heat and moisture conservation as well as olfaction. While turbinals are well known in some groups, their diversity is poorly understood at the scale of placental mammals, which span 21 orders.

The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 3, April 2026.We studied the effects of urban growth on wildlife near Parque Nacional Marino las Baulas, Costa Rica. Since 1991, buildings increased 1007%, mainly in the buffer zone. We identified eight native species extracting garbage from containers, with raccoons (Procyon lotor) comprising most detections (84%), and four other species being potential sea turtle ...

Functions of J‐domain proteins in mitochondrial protein biogenesis
Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract Mitochondrial biogenesis and functions depend on the import and assembly of more than 1000 proteins that are made as precursors on cytosolic ribosomes. The majority of these precursor proteins are transported from the ribosome to the translocase of the outer membrane (TOM complex), which constitutes the main entry site for mitochondrial ...

Unveiling nuclear localization signals in human arginine deiminase proteins
Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract Arginine iminohydrolases are a family of enzymes involved in the conversion of arginine to citrulline. There are five isoforms in humans (PADI1, 2, 3, 4, and 6). Some of them are observed experimentally in the cytoplasm and in the nucleus of the cell; for moving to the latter location, they must pass through the cell nuclear membrane by using ...

Leprosy Review, 2005 Wild nine-banded armadillos (Dasypus novemcinctus) in the south central United States are highly endemic natural hosts of Mycobacterium leprae. Surveys conducted over the last 30 years on more than 5000 animals confirm that the infection is present among armadillos in Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas.

Development of a reporter gene assay to identify control elements required for dosage compensation in Drosophila Melanogaster : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Genetics at Massey University [PDF]
, 1998 Dosage compensation (equalisation of X-linked gene products) occurs in Drosophila melanogaster by a two-fold transcriptional increase of X-linked gene expression in the male.

Seasonality as a structuring factor of the dung beetle community in burned neotropical savannas
Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 2, Page 336-345, April 2026.We tested the effects of fire, vegetation cover and seasonality on dung beetle communities, focusing on species richness, composition and co‐occurrence patterns in savannas. Fire did not affect species richness. However, seasonality was the dominant factor influencing species composition, followed by fire and vegetation cover.

Multi-view 3D retrieval using silhouette intersection and multi-scale contour representation [PDF]
, 2007 We describe in this paper two methods for 3D shape indexing and retrieval that we apply on two data collections of the SHREC - SHape Retrieval Contest 2007: Watertight models and 3D CAD models.
