Heterozygosity at a conserved candidate sex determination locus is associated with female development in the clonal raider ant

Kavli Affiliate: Daniel Kronauer | Authors: Kip D Lacy, Jina Lee, Kathryn Rozen-Gagnon, Wei Wang, Thomas S Carroll and Daniel J C Kronauer | Summary: Sex determination is a developmental switch that triggers sex-specific developmental programs. This switch is “flipped” by the expression of genes that promote male- or female-specific development. Many lineages have evolved […]

Whole-brain neural substrates of behavioral variability in the larval zebrafish

Kavli Affiliate: Alipasha Vaziri | Authors: Jason Manley and Alipasha Vaziri | Summary: Animals engaged in naturalistic behavior can exhibit a large degree of behavioral variability even under sensory invariant conditions. Such behavioral variability can include not only variations of the same behavior, but also variability across qualitatively different behaviors driven by divergent cognitive states, […]

Opto-CLIP reveals dynamic FMRP regulation of mRNAs upon CA1 neuronal activation

Kavli Affiliate: Robert B. Darnell and Nathaniel Heintz | Authors: Ruth A Singer, Veronika Rajchin, Kwanghoon Park, Nathaniel Heintz and Robert B Darnell | Summary: Neuronal diversity and function are intricately linked to the dynamic regulation of RNA metabolism, including splicing, localization, and translation. Electrophysiologic studies of synaptic plasticity, models for learning and memory, are […]

Mitochondria transported by Kinesin 3 prevent localized calcium spiking to inhibit caspase-dependent specialized cell death

Kavli Affiliate: Shai Shaham | Authors: Rashna Sharmin, Aladin Elkhalil, Sara Pena, Pranya Gaddipati, Ginger Clark, Pavak K Shah, Mark W Pellegrino, Shai Shaham and Piya Ghose | Summary: Polarized cells (such as neurons), defined by distinct compartments are, like many cell types, subject to developmental elimination, as in neurite pruning. The molecular mechanism behind […]

C. elegans LET-381/FoxF and DMD-4/DMRT control development of the mesodermal HMC endothelial cell

Kavli Affiliate: Shai Shaham | Authors: Nikolaos Stefanakis, Jasmine Xi, Jessica Jiang and Shai Shaham | Summary: Endothelial cells form the inner layer of blood vessels and play key roles in circulatory system development and function. A variety of endothelial cell types have been described through gene expression and transcriptome studies; nonetheless, the transcriptional programs […]

Gene regulatory networks and essential transcription factors for de novo originated genes

Kavli Affiliate: Li Zhao | Authors: Junhui Peng, Bing-Jun Wang, Nicolas Svetec and Li Zhao | Summary: The regulation of gene expression is crucial for the functional integration of evolutionarily young genes, particularly those that emerge de novo. However, the regulatory programs governing the expression of de novo genes remain unknown. To address this, we […]
