For decades, the biology of the intestinal stem cells was considered analogous to that of well-studied hematopoietic stem ...

The necrosome is the key macromolecular signaling platform initiating necroptosis, i.e., a RIPK1/RIPK3-dependent program of cell death with an important role in the control of inflammation in ...

Genome‐, transcriptome‐ and proteome‐wide measurements provide insights into how biological systems are regulated. However, fundamental aspects relating to which human proteins exist, where they are ...

During PINK1- and Parkin-mediated mitophagy, autophagy adaptors are recruited to damaged mitochondria to promote their selective degradation. Autophagy adaptors such as optineurin (OPTN) and NDP52 ...

The recent scandal surrounding Facebook and Cambridge Analytica 5 shows that these aspects of security and privacy are often not taken into account. Cambridge Analytica, a British consulting firm, was ...

Multiple sequence alignments are fundamental to many sequence analysis methods. Most alignments are computed using the progressive alignment heuristic. These methods are starting to become a ...

The protein expression profile of ACE2, suggested as host receptor for SARS‐CoV‐2, is assessed in various human organs. Notably, limited ACE2 expression is observed in the respiratory system both on ...

Gpx4 and TRF are PPARα target genes involved in ferroptosis regulation. Loss of PPARα aggravates iron overload‐induced ferroptosis in vivo, while activation of PPARα is sufficient to largely alleviate ...

Only about 5 years after the first preclinical proof of concept for gene therapy of otoferlin-related auditory synaptopathy (Al-Moyed et al, 2018; Akil et al, 2019), preliminary reports from several ...

Human microproteins encoded by long non‐coding RNAs (lncRNA) have been increasingly discovered, however, complete functional characterization of these emerging proteins is scattered. Here, we show ...
