The origin and structural evolution of de novo genes in Drosophila

Posted by klaurent Rockefeller

Kavli Affiliate: Li Zhao | Authors: Junhui Peng and Li Zhao | Summary: Although previously thought to be unlikely, recent studies have shown that de novo gene origination from previously non-genic sequences is a common mechanism for gene innovation in many species and taxa. These young genes provide a unique set of candidates to study […]

Upgraded waveform model of eccentric binary black hole based on effective-one-body-numerical-relativity for spin-aligned binary black holes

Posted by klaurent Peking

Kavli Affiliate: Lijing Shao | First 5 Authors: Xiaolin Liu, Zhoujian Cao, Lijing Shao, , | Summary: Effective one body numerical relativity waveform models for spin aligned binary black holes (SEOBNR) are based on the effective one body theoretical framework and numerical relativity simulation results. SEOBNR models have evolved through version 1 to version 4. […]

An engineered biosensor enables dynamic aspartate measurements in living cells

Posted by klaurent UCSD / Salk

Kavli Affiliate: Timothy Brown | Authors: Kristian Davidsen, Jonathan S Marvin, Abhi Aggarwal, Timothy A Brown and Lucas B Sullivan | Summary: Intracellular levels of the amino acid aspartate are responsive to changes in metabolism in mammalian cells and can correspondingly alter cell function, highlighting the need for robust tools to measure aspartate abundance. However, […]

Population encoding of stimulus features along the visual hierarchy

Posted by klaurent UCSF

Kavli Affiliate: Michael Stryker | Authors: Luciano Dyballa, Andra M Rudzite, Mahmood S Hoseini, Mishek Thapa, Michael P Stryker, Greg D Field and Steven W Zucker | Summary: The retina and primary visual cortex (V1) both exhibit diverse neural populations sensitive to diverse visual features. Yet it remains unclear how neural populations in each area […]

An observational upper limit on the rate of gamma-ray bursts with neutron star-black hole merger progenitors

Posted by klaurent MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Salvatore Vitale | First 5 Authors: Sylvia Biscoveanu, Eric Burns, Philippe Landry, Salvatore Vitale, | Summary: Compact-object binary mergers consisting of one neutron star and one black hole (NSBHs) have long been considered promising progenitors for gamma-ray bursts, whose central engine remains poorly understood. Using gravitational-wave constraints on the population-level NSBH mass and […]

Optical Identification of the Shortest-Period Spider Pulsar System M71E

Posted by klaurent Peking

Kavli Affiliate: Subo Dong | First 5 Authors: Zhuokai Liu, Subo Dong, , , | Summary: M71E is a spider pulsar (i.e., a millisecond pulsar with a tight binary companion) with the shortest known orbital period of P=53.3 min discovered by Pan et al. (2023). Their favored evolutionary model suggests that it bridges between two […]
