Assembly and Maintenance of Myofibrils in the Heart

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The assembly of actin and myosin to the paracrystalline arrangement of myofibrils in striated muscle, that is, heart and skeletal, has puzzled many a cell biologist. Different models, based on cultured cardiomyocytes, were proposed for the last 30 years to explain the sequence of events.

Assessing relative hazard, risk, and seasonal differences of wildlife‐aircraft collisions

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin
Wildlife collisions with aircraft have serious safety and economic implications. Strike risk models are used to assess the probability of an adverse event between wildlife and aircraft, providing information to guide wildlife management at airports.

Fixation Induces Mislocalization of Thin Filament Components in Caenorhabditis elegans Striated Muscle

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The simple nematode Caenorhabditis elegans has long served as a powerful genetic model system for studying muscle structure and function, with sarcomeres of the striated body wall muscle (BWM) that are considered largely homologous to those in vertebrates.

Oogenesis and germinal bed morphology of the brown anole (A. sagrei)

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The brown anole is a model species of the genus Anolis, a squamate (encompassing lizards and snakes) group widely studied in evolutionary, behavioral, and developmental biology. Full genome annotation, the establishment of gene editing techniques, and comprehensive description of reproductive tract morphology and embryogenesis in ...
