In Vivo Cytoskeletal AMPA Receptor Transport Imaging in C. elegans
ABSTRACT Long‐distance intracellular transport of ionotropic glutamate receptors (iGluRs) is essential for proper excitatory synaptic function underlying learning and memory. Many neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative conditions have abnormal iGluR transport and trafficking, leading to an intense interest in the mechanisms and factors regulating these

Benchmarking of Fluorescent Proteins in Trichoderma reesei Using Flow Cytometry
ABSTRACT Fungi are the subject of extensive research due to their significant impact on human life. However, the development of tools based on fluorescent proteins has been slow in these species. Trichoderma reesei, a filamentous fungus known for its high secretion capability, shows great potential for producing heterologous proteins.

Abstract Background Integrin is an αβ heterodimeric receptor to the extracellular matrix; its binding to the matrix recruits focal adhesions to two NPxY motifs, the tyrosine phosphorylation sites in the cytoplasmic domain. Studies found that replacing tyrosines (Y) with phenylalanines (F) in the motif of β1 integrin displayed little developmental or ...

Abstract Background Elp1, a subunit of the Elongator complex, is essential for tRNA modification and neuronal development. Mutations in ELP1 underlie familial dysautonomia (FD), a disorder marked by sensory and autonomic neuropathy. While loss of Elp1 disrupts trigeminal ganglion formation and survival, the downstream molecular consequences remain ...

Synonymous codon usage defines functional gene families
Background The degeneracy of the genetic code is increasingly recognized for roles in regulating translation rate, protein folding, and cell response. However, the functional genomics of codon usage patterns remains poorly defined.

Abstract Background Developmental control of jaw size is crucial to prevent birth defects and facilitate evolutionary adaptation. We have shown that jaw size is established by neural crest mesenchyme (NCM), which are progenitor cells that migrate into the mandibular primordia and produce the jaws.

Oligogenic inheritance in epilepsy: A systematic exome‐wide analysis
Abstract Objective Genetic factors contribute to the majority of epilepsies, but the exact genetic cause remains unknown in most patients. Incomplete penetrance and variable expressivity are frequent, and recent studies showed a burden of deleterious variants in epilepsy genes, suggesting a role for oligogenic inheritance.

Abstract Objective Stiripentol and fenfluramine are approved treatments for Dravet syndrome (DS), but real‐world data comparing their effectiveness and combined use remain limited. Our study aims to explore associations between treatment with stiripentol, fenfluramine, and their combination and clinical outcomes in patients with DS.
