Human Mutation - Yuehua Zhang, Liping Wei, and colleagues
Amplicon Resequencing Identified Parental Mosaicism for Approximately 10% of “de novo” SCN1A Mutations in Children with Dravet Syndrome. The majority of children with Dravet syndrome (DS) are caused b...
How to Undress an mRNP - Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay requires the RNA helicase Upf1, but as Jens Lykke-Andersen and colleagues explain, Upf1 does more than unwind RNA. It also strips off the mRNA's p...
Multitasking microRNA regulates metastasis - Understanding how a tumor switches from sustaining growth in just one part of the body to disseminating secondary tumors throughout the body, a process cal...
In this video, Josselyn and colleagues summarize their findings on how neurons are chosen (or allocated) to be part of a memory engram. For more information, see Yiu, Mercaldo et al., Neuron 83(3), ht...
Pancreatic Beta Cell Dedifferentiation as a Mechanism of Diabetic Beta Cell Failure
Domenico Accili challenges a prevalent view that pancreatic Beta cells undergo apoptosis in conditions that induce diabetes, suggesting instead that dedifferentiation is a major mechanism of Beta cell...
