Quorum Sensing Behavior in the Model Unicellular Eukaryote Chlamydomonas reinhardtii
Summary: Microbial communities display behavioral changes in response to variable environmental conditions. In some bacteria, motility increases as a function of cell density, allowing for population dispersal before the onset of nutrient scarcity ...

The Leishmania major BBSome subunit BBS1 is essential for parasite virulence in the mammalian host [PDF]
Bardet–Biedl syndrome (BBS) is a human genetic disorder with a spectrum of symptoms caused by primary cilium dysfunction. The disease is caused by mutations in one of at least 17 identified genes, of which seven encode subunits of the BBSome, a protein ...

Glutamate signaling mediates C. elegans behavioral plasticity to pathogens
Summary: In Caenorhabditis elegans, sensory neurons mediate behavioral response to pathogens. However, how C. elegans intergrades these sensory signals via downstream neuronal and molecular networks remains largely unknown. Here, we report that glutamate
