BEEtag: A Low-Cost, Image-Based Tracking System for the Study of Animal Behavior and Locomotion

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2015
A fundamental challenge common to studies of animal movement, behavior, and ecology is the collection of high-quality datasets on spatial positions of animals as they change through space and time.

Residual tail twisting in ascidian larvae is stabilized by asymmetric myofibrils that resist bilateral symmetry restoration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...

Biophysical approaches for studying viral entry

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Viruses infect all living organisms and have been responsible for major epidemics and pandemics. Their ongoing evolutionary battle with host defenses creates a constant need for improved tools to study viral behavior. Advancing methods to probe viral attachment, fusion, and genome release deepen our understanding of how infections begin and support the

Animal Behavior Feed Apparatus

open access: yes
Electronic feed system for an animal. Most likely used to monitor behavior in an animal and instill a reward of food if the animal did the behavior required.

callsync: An R package for alignment and analysis of multi‐microphone animal recordings

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
To better understand how vocalisations are used during interactions of multiple individuals, studies are increasingly deploying on‐board devices with a microphone on each animal.

Power Up: Combining Behavior Monitoring Software with Business Intelligence Tools to Enhance Proactive Animal Welfare Reporting

open access: yes, 2022
SIMPLE SUMMARY: Monitoring animal behavior over time is important for zoos and aquariums seeking to continually evaluate animal welfare. Although new digital tools are making behavior monitoring more accessible, analyzing behavior data in a timely manner

Neural Circuit Mechanisms of Social Behavior

open access: yesNeuron, 2018
SUMMARY We live in a world that is largely socially constructed, and are constantly involved in and fundamentally influenced by a broad array of complex social interactions.

Septin 9 PB domains coordinate centrosome positioning and microtubule acetylation to control epithelial polarity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Septin 9 polybasic domains couple phosphoinositide‐rich membrane binding to centrosome positioning, Golgi organization, and microtubule acetylation to control epithelial polarity. Their loss disrupts this axis, causing centrosome mispositioning, Golgi fragmentation, reduced microtubule acetylation, and polarity inversion via upregulation of the ...

Fairly flexible: brown-tufted capuchins and a squirrel monkey adjust their motor responses in a foraging task [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ
Prior research on non-human primates has produced contradictory results regarding behavioral flexibility and habit formation. Most observational studies of wild primates show flexibility in foraging behavior, whereas experimental data suggest captive ...

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.
