Quantitative analysis of cell shape and the cytoskeleton in developmental biology
, 2020 Computational approaches that enable quantification of microscopy data have revolutionized the field of developmental biology. Due to its inherent complexity, elucidating mechanisms of development requires sophisticated analysis of the structure, shape ...

Nature Communications, 2021 Parasitoids exploit host bodies for reproduction, selecting for host defences. A new host defence is reported, in which adult Drosophila accelerate mating behaviour at the sight of certain parasitoid wasps, mediated by the upregulation of a nervous ...

Fsh stimulates Leydig cell Wnt5a production, enriching zebrafish type A spermatogonia [PDF]
, 2018 Follicle-stimulating hormone (Fsh) modulates vertebrate spermatogenesis by regulating somatic cell functions in the testis. We have found previously that zebrafish Fsh stimulated the differentiating proliferation of type A undifferentiated spermatogonia (

Nature Communications, 2017 Multiple mechanisms regulate Wnt/ß-catenin signalling. Zhanget al. describe a novel regulatory pathway and show that the activator of canonical Wnt signalling, Norrin, triggers endocytosis of its receptor Frizzled4 by promoting Frizzled4 ubiquitination.

Sugar sensation and mechanosensation in the egg-laying preference shift of Drosophila suzukii
eLife, 2022 The agricultural pest Drosophila suzukii differs from most other Drosophila species in that it lays eggs in ripe, rather than overripe, fruit. Previously, we showed that changes in bitter taste sensation accompanied this adaptation (Dweck et al., 2021 ...

XPO5 promotes primary miRNA processing independently of RanGTP
Nature Communications, 2020 XPO5 mediates nuclear export of miRNA hairpin precursors (pre-miRNAs) through a RanGTP-dependent binding. Here the authors employ HITS-CLIP and biochemical analysis and show that XPO5 binds and promotes nuclear processing of clustered pri-miRNAs, with ...

Self-repair ability of evolved self-assembling systems in cellular automata [PDF]
, 2014 Self-repairing systems are those that are able to reconfigure themselves following disruptions to bring them back into a defined normal state. In this paper we explore the self-repair ability of some cellular automata-like systems, which differ from ...

Non‐genetic diversity modulates population performance
Molecular Systems Biology, 2016 Biological functions are typically performed by groups of cells that express predominantly the same genes, yet display a continuum of phenotypes. While it is known how one genotype can generate such non‐genetic diversity, it remains unclear how different

Noise reduction as an emergent property of single-cell aging
Nature Communications, 2017 Gene expression is a noisy process, but it is not known how noise in gene expression changes during the aging of single cells. Here the authors show that noise decreases during normal aging, and provide support for aging-associated increases in chromatin
