Ectopic A-lattice seams destabilize microtubules [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Natural microtubules typically include one A-lattice seam within an otherwise helically symmetric B-lattice tube. It is currently unclear how A-lattice seams influence microtubule dynamic instability.

Why Do They Do What They Do? A Model That Describes and Connects the Drivers of Learning Assistant Facilitation Practices

open access: yesScience Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Learning assistants (LAs) help implement evidence‐based teaching in undergraduate active‐learning courses and support student learning through their facilitation. Here, we present a drivers‐of‐LA‐action model with empirical evidence that connects across the macro level of LA‐supported course design and the micro level of LA‐student ...

Social information about others' affective states in a human‐altered world

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Faced with anthropogenic change, animals now encounter challenges different from their evolutionary past. To cope with such challenges, animals may use social information about others' affective states to guide their decisions. Considering affective states of wild animals could have important implications for animal welfare and wildlife conservation ...

Revealing mammalian evolutionary relationships by comparative analysis of gene clusters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Many software tools for comparative analysis of genomic sequence data have been released in recent decades. Despite this, it remains challenging to determine evolutionary relationships in gene clusters due to their complex histories involving ...

Ontological polyglossia: the art of communicating in opacity* Polyglossie ontologique : l'art de communiquer dans l'opacité

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
What do communicating with a baby, with an animal, and with an ancestor have in common? In all three cases, people engage in opaque communication that is far from the standard psycholinguistic model of transparent interaction based on shared intentionality.

Investigation of marmoset hybrids (Cebuella pygmaea x Callithrix jacchus) and related Callitrichinae (Platyrrhini) by cross-species chromosome painting and comparative genomic hybridization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We report on the cytogenetics of twin offspring from an interspecies cross in marmosets (Callitrichinae, Platyrrhini), resulting from a pairing between a female Common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus, 2n = 46) and a male Pygmy marmoset (Cebuella pygmaea, 2n

The oestrous cycle of the brown lemur, Lemur fulvus [PDF]

open access: yesReproduction, 1978
Examination of vaginal smears and observations of the colour and tumescence of the genitalia and discharge of mucus of 9 brown lemurs indicated that the oestrous cycle lasted for 30 days and that cycles occurred between September and July. The timing of cycles of females housed in visual isolation differed from that of females able to see other lemurs,

Climatic–Anthropogenic Synergy Drives Escalating Minimum Area Requirements and Connectivity‐Protection Mismatch in a Karst‐Endemic Primate

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Climate change and anthropogenic activities drive antagonistic degradation of landscape connectivity for endangered François’ langur (1987–2024), causing 48.8% habitat loss, north‐south fragmentation, and centroid migration (1.2 km/yr). Despite protected areas buffering connectivity, static management fails dynamic priority habitats; we propose ...
