Cellular trafficking between organelles is typically assured by short motifs that contact carrier proteins to transport them to their destination. Ubiquitin E3 ligase RING finger protein 13 (RNF13), a regulator of proliferation, apoptosis, and protein trafficking, localizes to endolysosomal compartments through the binding of a dileucine motif to clathrin ...

The gut microbiota of group-living animals is strongly influenced by their social interactions, but it is unclear how it responds to social instability. We investigated whether social instability associated with the arrival of new males and challenges to the alpha male position could explain differences in the gut microbiota in adult female Colobus veller ...

Research on bilingualism has grown exponentially in recent years. However, the comprehension of speech in noise, given the ubiquity of both bilingualism and noisy environments, has seen only limited focus. Electroencephalogram (EEG) studies in monolinguals show an increase in alpha power when lis ...

Estrogens affect dopamine-dependent diseases/behavior and have rapid effects on dopamine release and receptor availability in the nucleus accumbens (NAc). Low levels of nuclear estrogen receptor (ER) a and ERß are seen in the NAc, which cannot account for the rapid effects of estrogens in this region. G-protein coupled ER 1 (GPER1) is observed at low leve ...

A stress induced calcium-binding protein, RD20/CLO3 interacts with the alpha subunit of the heterotrimeric G-protein complex in Arabidopsis and affects etiolation and leaf morphology. Heterotrimeric G proteins and calcium signaling have both been shown to play a role in the response to environmen ...

Simultaneous recording of electroencephalography (EEG) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is a very promising non-invasive neuroimaging technique. However, EEG data obtained from the simultaneous EEG-fMRI are strongly influenced by MRI-related artefacts, namely gradient artefacts (G ...

Interactions between interictal epileptiform discharges (IEDs) and distant cortical regions subserve potential effects on cognition of patients with focal epilepsy. We hypothesize that "healthy" brain areas at a distance from the epileptic focus may respond to the interference of IEDs by generating inhibitory alpha and beta oscillations. We predict that m ...

The conformational ensemble of intrinsically disordered proteins, such as a-synuclein, are responsible for their function and malfunction. Misfolding of a-synuclein can lead to neurodegenerative diseases, and the ability to study their conformations and those of other intrinsically disordered proteins under varying physiological conditions can be crucial ...
