Captivated by Kinesin

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Few proteins have inspired as much curiosity as kinesin. Since its discovery 40 years ago, kinesin has become one of the best understood molecular machines in biology, yet it continues to reveal new questions about how cells organize and move their contents.

Cyclaulus in the Peruvian Coastal Desert (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae)

The Florida Entomologist, 1976
The mesostenine genus Cyclaulus, previously known only from east Andean cloud forests between northwest Argentina and Colombia, is reported for the first time from the Peruvian Coastal Desert. Cyclaulus eremia n. sp. is described from Samne, Peru, and the Valle de Lluta in northernmost Chile.

Exploring wave propagation behaviors in rock: A grain‐based perspective on mineral structures

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study investigates wave propagation in rock at the grain scale using a grain‐based model, revealing that mineral elastic modulus significantly influences wave attenuation while grain size and distribution have limited effects. A novel peak particle velocity attenuation prediction model is proposed and validated for grain‐scale wave propagation ...

Ideal climatic conditions for condensation of atmospheric moisture on the plants’ surface

Hortus Botanicus, 2015
The value of the observed phenomenon of condensation of atmospheric moisture by cooling the plant leaves and shoots to a temperature below the dew point is largely determined by climatic parameters.

Embryonic development of the Mediterranean starfish Hacelia attenuata

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Starfish play essential ecological roles as predators and ecosystem regulators; however, detailed developmental descriptions exist for only a handful of species, none of which are from the Mediterranean Sea. Results In this study, we provide the first full account of the development of the Mediterranean starfish Hacelia attenuata ...

A shining starlet: Nematostella vectensis as a model for developmental, regenerative, and comparative biology

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract The sea anemone, Nematostella vectensis, has been used as a model organism in developmental biology studies for many years. This estuarine species has the notable capacity to regenerate its full body plan from small pieces throughout life. Nematostella have been described as having a great degree of cellular plasticity.
