CryoROLE: describing large inter-domain rotation in single particle cryo-EM

Kavli Affiliate: Yifan Cheng | Authors: Chengmin Li, Wooyoung Choi, Hao Wu and Yifan Cheng | Summary: In single particle cryo-EM, analysis of continuous conformational heterogeneity has always been challenging. Both linear and deep learning-based methods treat conformational heterogeneity as perturbations to the consensus average conformation, limiting their capability in analyzing large protein motions. While […]

High-fidelity rare structural variant detection with HiFiRE3 reduced representation via restriction enzyme ends

Kavli Affiliate: Bjoern Schwer | Authors: Joseph A Stewart, Jeanmarie Mishler, Samreen Ahmed, Bjoern Schwer, Thomas W. Glover and Thomas E Wilson | Summary: High-fidelity detection of rare structural variants (SVs) remains challenging because library preparation and sequencing techniques generate artifactual junctions that obscure true single-molecule events. Here, we present HiFiRe3, an error-minimized sequencing framework […]

Striatal lateral inhibition regulates action selection in a mouse model of levodopa-induced dyskinesia

Kavli Affiliate: Alexandra Nelson | Authors: Emily L Twedell, Chloe J Bair-Marshall, Allison E Girasole, Lara K Scaria, Sadhana Sridhar and Alexandra B Nelson | Summary: Striatal medium spiny neurons (MSNs) integrate convergent cortical, thalamic, and dopaminergic inputs to shape motor output. In addition, MSNs form local inhibitory synaptic connections with one another. The function […]

Decoding Chronic Pain States from Distributed Intracranial Recordings

Kavli Affiliate: Edward Chang | Authors: Jeremy Saal, Ankit N. Khambhati, Edward F. Chang and Prasad Shirvalkar | Summary: Chronic pain engages distributed cortical and subcortical circuits, and large-scale intracranial recordings in humans offer a valuable opportunity to characterize its neural signatures. Here, we recorded multi-day stereoelectroencephalography (sEEG) from six participants with refractory chronic neuropathic […]
