Large-scale microscopy combined with tissue clearing and expansion enables nanoscale imaging of centimeter scale specimens.

The mRNA metabolism passively shapes the levels of an mRNA modification called m6A within a steady-state cell and upon stress.

This is an important study that combines replications of findings and novel detailed MRI investigations to assess the impact of environmental enrichment and maternal behavior on mice brain structure ...

CD131 contributes to intestinal inflammation in ulcerative colitis, possibly by promoting the infiltration of macrophages, while targeting CD131 might potentially be a treatment remedy for ulcerative ...

Mutations in EGLN1, the gene encoding for hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) prolyl-4-hydroxylase 2 (PHD2), cause erythrocytosis and in rare cases the development of neuroendocrine tumors. In the presence ...

In this valuable study, Kumar et al., provide evidence suggesting that the p130Cas drives the formation of condensates that sprout from focal adhesions to cytoplasm and suppress translation. Pending ...

The tumor suppressor p53 is a transcription factor that controls the expression of hundreds of genes. Emerging evidence suggests that the p53-induced RNA-binding protein ZMAT3 is a key splicing ...

Based on several lines of interesting data, the authors conclude that FMRP, though associated with stalled ribosomes, does not determine the position on the mRNAs at which ribosomes stall. Although ...

Alignment and sequencing errors are a major concern in molecular evolution, and this valuable study represents a welcome improvement for genome-wide scans of positive selection. This new method seems ...

eLife is a non-profit organisation inspired by research funders and led by scientists. Our mission is to help scientists accelerate discovery by operating a platform for research communication that ...

Almost all cervical cancers are caused by human papillomaviruses (HPVs). In most cases, HPV DNA is integrated into the human genome. We found that tumor-specific, HPV-human DNA junctions are ...

Experiments with tools designed to detect DNA damage reveal unique and conserved features of telomeres in cancer cells.
