    Description

    Studying the physiological impact of transcranial ultrasound in rodent brains may offer an important preclinical model for human scale magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound methods. Therefore, this study found a versatile bidirectional hybrid fluorescence-ultrasound system with a fiberscope-based wide-field fluorescence imaging. This dataset contains functional connectivity data. The functional...

    Description

    VcINDY is a sodium-dependent dicarboxylate transporter that imports tricarboxylic acid cycle intermediates across the inner membrane of Vibrio cholerae. This study used a combination of structure determination by single-particle cryo-electron microscopy, substrate-binding affinity measurements by intrinsic tryptophan fluorescence quenching, and position accessibility quantification by site-directed...

    Description

    Glutathione (GSH) and its precursor, N-acetylcysteine (NAC), are common thiol antioxidants, which are among the most popular dietary supplements. However, the long-term effects of GSH or NAC on healthy animals have not been properly studied. This study examined the effects of prolonged supplementation and chronic restriction of GSH and NAC on Caenorhabditis elegans physiology and lifespan. For RNA...

    Description

    Long interspersed element-1 (LINE-1) is an autonomously active retrotransposon in the human genome. The LINE-1 mRNA encodes two proteins, ORF1p and ORF2p, which are essential for retrotransposition. This study showed that electrostatic interactions and trimer conformational dynamics together tune the properties of ORF1p assemblies to allow for efficient LINE-1 ribonucleoprotein complex formation in...
