Frontiers in Immunology, 2012 The VH replacement process is a RAG-mediated secondary recombination in which the variable region of a rearranged VHDJH is replaced by a different germline VH gene. In almost all human and mouse VH genes, two sequence features appear to be crucial for VH

A fluid-to-solid jamming transition underlies vertebrate body axis elongation
Nature, 2018 Just as in clay moulding or glass blowing, physically sculpting biological structures requires the constituent material to locally flow like a fluid while maintaining overall mechanical integrity like a solid.

Norepinephrine and octopamine: linking stress and immune function across phyla [PDF]
Invertebrate Survival Journal, 2008 In species from three widely divergent phyla (Arthropoda, Mollusca and Chordata) tyrosine derivatives (norepinephrine or octopamine) mediate a response to acute stress.

Functions of Vertebrate Ferlins [PDF]
Cells, 2020 Ferlins are multiple-C2-domain proteins involved in Ca2+-triggered membrane dynamics within the secretory, endocytic and lysosomal pathways. In bony vertebrates there are six ferlin genes encoding, in humans, dysferlin, otoferlin, myoferlin, Fer1L5 and 6 and the long noncoding RNA Fer1L4.

An investigation into the use of road drainage structures by wildlife in Maryland, USA
Human-Wildlife Interactions, 2017 Culverts have been installed beneath roadways for drainage or to contain existing streams; however, most of them have not been installed to facilitate the passage of wildlife.

A brief history of galectin evolution
Frontiers in Immunology, 2023 Galectins are a family of carbohydrate-binding proteins found in vertebrates in great abundance and diversity in terms of both structure and ligand-binding properties as well as physiological function.

Evolution of thymopoietic microenvironments [PDF]
Open Biology, 2021 In vertebrates, the development of lymphocytes from undifferentiated haematopoietic precursors takes place in so-called primary lymphoid organs, such as the thymus.

Seminars in Cell & Developmental Biology, 2018 A renowned neuroscientist, now retired from Cambridge University, once told me that he had been a graduate student in North America when he first came across the term “habenula”. For him and his course mates, the habenula provided a source of humor. Nobody knew what it did, but the word sounded unusual and provoked a lot of laughter.
