We describe the functional anatomy of masticatory muscles in nine opossums, finding a generalized anatomical pattern with differences related to skull morphology. Variation in quantitative myological data and estimated bite force was mostly related to size, and the increase in bite force supports dietary diversification associated with size increase ...

Reduced Adult Neurogenesis in Humans Results From a Tradeoff Rather Than Direct Negative Selection
Embryonic radial glia (RG) generate neurons, glial cells, and later adult neural stem cells, which sustain adult neurogenesis (top, left to right). Human‐specific genetic modifications (blue arrow), selected to boost early RG neurogenic activity, may lead to premature RG exhaustion and reduced adult neurogenesis in the human brain (bottom).

Recently, Singh et al. studied the influence of reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation by the ETC on mitochondrial morphology in baker's yeast. Their findings highlight evolutionary constraints, important trade‐offs using different metabolic substrates, and connections with points of entry into the ETC, ROS production, the FADH2/NADH ratio concept ...

ABSTRACT Yeasts belonging to the genus Rhodotorula are capable of synthesizing carotenoids, such as β‐carotene, γ‐carotene, torulene, torularodine, and astaxanthin. These carotenoids have been shown to offer health benefits to humans, such as immune system strengthening and a reduced risk of chronic degenerative diseases.

Beyond Histones: Unveiling the Functional Roles of Protein Acetylation in Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes
ABSTRACT Lysine acetylation plays a crucial role in cellular processes and is found across various evolutionary organisms. Recent advancements in proteomic techniques revealed the presence of acetylation in thousands of non‐histone proteins. Here, we conducted extensive meta‐analysis of 48 acetylomes spanning diverse organisms, including archaea ...

Mechanochemical and Aging‐Based SN2 Method to Access CO2‐Responsive, High‐Amine‐Loading Chitosan
We report a green, scalable mechanochemical SN2 method to synthesize CO2‐responsive chitosan with a record‐high amine loading (DS up to 1.67). This one‐pot process functionalizes both amine and alcohol groups using minimal reagents and energy. The resulting biopolymer exhibits reversible pH and osmotic pressure changes upon CO2 exposure, offering a ...

The lower Eocene Alveolina Limestone records the global early Eocene transgression, but is equally affected by tectonic movements of the Montsec active thrust located in its hangingwall. Tectonic movements and the early Eocene transgression facilitated a detrital provenance shift in the southern Pyrenean foreland from a southern provenance in the ...
