The Platypus

open access: yesPapers and proceedings of the Royal Society of Tasmania, 1878
The majority of our indigenous mammals are gradually but surely becoming extinct, and, therefore, observations on their habits of life, though possibly of but trivial interest now, will in a few generations, be eagerly sought for and be as valuable then as a few authentic notes on the manners and customs of the Dodo or the Moa would now be to us.

From transporter to motor: Evolutionary and structural insights into the emergence of prestin's area‐motor activity in mammals

open access: yesProtein Science, Volume 35, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Prestin, a member of the SLC26A family, is essential for the electromotility of mammalian outer hair cells, converting voltage changes into mechanical work. In contrast, nonmammalian orthologues function as anion transporters. To investigate the molecular and structural basis of this functional divergence, we performed ancestral sequence ...

Using DNA metabarcoding as a novel approach for analysis of platypus diet

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Platypuses (Ornithorhynchus anatinus) forage for macroinvertebrate prey exclusively in freshwater habitats. Because food material in their faeces is well digested and mostly unidentifiable, previous dietary studies have relied on cheek pouch assessments ...

Microscale Templating of Functional Particles Using Self‐Limiting Electrospray Deposition

open access: yesSmall, Volume 22, Issue 25, 4 May 2026.
Self‐limiting electrospray deposition (SLED) uses trapped charge in a growing film to redirect incoming material and produce highly targeted and uniform sprays. Here, nanoparticles are added to sprays to functionalize pre‐patterned electrodes and other devices.

A Comparative Genomic Survey Provides Novel Insights into Molecular Evolution of l-Aromatic Amino Acid Decarboxylase in Vertebrates

open access: yesMolecules, 2018
Melatonin is a pleiotropic molecule with various important physiological roles in vertebrates. l-aromatic amino acid decarboxylase (AAAD) is the second enzyme for melatonin synthesis.

Nanopore Electroporation: A New Delivery Method Within the Field of Epigenetic Editing

open access: yesSmall, Volume 22, Issue 28, 18 May 2026.
Nanopore‐mediated electroporation was used to deliver a CRISPRi system to clonal β‐cells. This enabled targeted downregulation of insulin expression while maintaining high cell viability. ABSTRACT Epigenetic modifications influence gene expression and contribute to type 2 diabetes (T2D), but establishing causality requires targeted modulation of ...
