ABSTRACT Aim Identifying interactors in sensorimotor processing and neurotransmission remains a current challenge for understanding neural information processing and brain function. Methods To evaluate the role of p11 in sensorimotor processing and excitatory synaptic neurotransmission, neuron‐specific lentivirus‐directed p11 silencing, small ...

Beyond Inflammation: Why Understanding the Brain Matters in Inflammatory Arthritis
Persistent pain remains a major challenge in inflammatory arthritis, even when joint inflammation is well controlled. Pain and associated symptoms such as fatigue cannot be explained by peripheral inflammation alone but reflect altered central pain processing. These changes may arise through “top‐down” mechanisms, reflecting pre‐existing dysfunction in

Structural basis of product recognition by Mycobacterium tuberculosis fatty acid synthase
Abstract Microbial iterative fatty acid synthases (FAS) are versatile multienzymes under scrutiny for their potential as anti‐infectious targets and their biotechnological applications. They produce saturated fatty acids with defined chain length and release them as coenzyme A‐conjugates.

Increasing agrin function antagonizes muscle atrophy and motor impairment in spinal muscular atrophy [PDF]
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a pediatric genetic disease, characterized by motor neuron (MN) death, leading to progressive muscle weakness, respiratory failure, and, in the most severe cases, to death. Abnormalities at the neuromuscular junction (NMJ)

Use of RNA secondary structure for evolutionary relationships : investigating RNase P and RNase MRP : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Genetics at Massey University, New Zealand [PDF]
Bioinformatics is applied here to examine whether RNA secondary structure data can reflect distant evolutionary relationships. This is important when there is little confidence in sequence data such as when looking at the evolution of RNase MRP (MRP ...
