Kavli Affiliate: Roderick MacKinnon | Authors: Gonzalo Pérez-Mitta, Yeliz Sezgin, Weiwei Wang and Roderick MacKinnon | Summary: Abstract Integral membrane proteins (IMPs) constitute a large fraction of organismal proteomes, playing fundamental roles in physiology and disease. Despite their importance, the mechanisms underlying dynamic features of IMPs, such as anomalous diffusion, protein-protein interactions, and protein clustering, […]

Kavli Affiliate: Sidney Strickland | Authors: Pradeep K Singh, Elisa Nicoloso Simoes-Pires, Zu-Lin Chen, Daniel Torrente, Marissa Calvano, Anurag Sharma, Sidney Strickland and Erin H Norris | Summary: Proteinaceous brain inclusions, neuroinflammation, and vascular dysfunction are common pathologies in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Vascular deficits include a compromised blood-brain barrier, which can lead to extravasation of […]

Kavli Affiliate: Alipasha Vaziri | Authors: Jason Manley, Jefferey Demas, Hyewon Kim, Francisca Martinez Traub and Alipasha Vaziri | Summary: The brain’s remarkable properties arise from collective activity of millions of neurons. Widespread application of dimensionality reduction to multi-neuron recordings implies that neural dynamics can be approximated by low-dimensional “latent” signals reflecting neural computations. However, […]

Although standard treatments with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) have achieved remarkable success in prolonging patient […]

Kavli Affiliate: Charles M. Rice | Authors: Zakary S. Singer, Jonathan Pabon, Hsinyen Huang, Charles M. Rice and Tal Danino | Summary: The ability of bacteria and viruses to selectively replicate in tumors has led to synthetic engineering of new microbial therapies. Here we design a cooperative strategy whereby S. typhimurium bacteria transcribe and deliver […]

Kavli Affiliate: Winrich Freiwald | Authors: Pablo Polosecki, Sara C Steenrod, Heiko Stemmann and Winrich A. Freiwald | Summary: Attention is a central cognitive capability whose focus is thought to be directed by a spatial map coding behavioral priority. Here we tested the three defining properties of priority map theory with electrophysiological recordings from two […]
