Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...

ON TAIL INDEX ESTIMATION FOR DEPENDENT, HETEROGENEOUS DATA [PDF]
In this paper we analyze the asymptotic properties of the popular distribution tail index estimator by Hill (1975) for dependent, heterogeneous processes. We develop new extremal dependence measures that characterize a massive array of linear, nonlinear, and conditional volatility processes with long or short memory. We prove that the Hill estimator is

Septin 9 polybasic domains couple phosphoinositide‐rich membrane binding to centrosome positioning, Golgi organization, and microtubule acetylation to control epithelial polarity. Their loss disrupts this axis, causing centrosome mispositioning, Golgi fragmentation, reduced microtubule acetylation, and polarity inversion via upregulation of the ...

Tail posture and motion in relation to natural behaviour in juvenile and adult pigs
The tail of pigs has been suggested as a welfare indicator as it can provide insight into a pig’s behavioural and emotional states. Tail posture and motion have so far mainly been studied in the context of tail biting behaviour. The aim of this study was

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration
Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Tail risk analysis of the S&P/OIC COMCEC 50 index
The S&P/OIC COMCEC 50 Sharia index is a joint index created by the organization of the Islamic conference (OIC) member states' stock exchanges forum and S&P indices. It is a Sharia-compliant benchmark of the 50 leading companies from OIC-members.

On the stationary tail index of iterated random Lipschitz functions [PDF]
Let Ψ,Ψ1,Ψ2,… be a sequence of i.i.d. random Lipschitz maps from a complete separable metric space (X,d) with unbounded metric d to itself and let Xn=Ψn∘⋯∘Ψ1(X0) for n=1,2,… be the associated Markov chain of forward iterations with initial value X0 which

Phosphoinositides and inositol phosphates as molecular glues
Inositol phosphates (IPs) and phosphoinositides (PIPs) regulate diverse eukaryotic processes. Beyond recruiting signaling proteins or acting as structural cofactors, recent studies suggest they mediate protein–protein interactions as natural molecular glues.

Robust Estimations for the Tail Index of Weibull-Type Distribution
Based on suitable left-truncated or censored data, two flexible classes of M-estimations of Weibull tail coefficient are proposed with two additional parameters bounding the impact of extreme contamination.
