Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) is a popular tool in life sciences, for example
to detect protein-protein interactions and ligand binding, or to construct fluorescent
biosensors for metabolites or ions. Obtaining ...
Nuclear pore complexes embedded in the nuclear envelope regulate the bidirectional transport of macromolecules between the nucleus and the cytoplasm. Small molecules can rapidly move through the permeability barrier of the ...
Tau protein is classically considered as a neuronal microtubule-associated protein that stabilizes microtubules and supports the outgrowth of axons. The protein can modulate the transport of vesicles and organelles along ...
Activity-induced regulation of surface post-synaptic receptor number is a well-known mechanism
underlying synaptic plasticity, but the molecular machinery mediating this process is poorly
understood. In a screen of ...
Anxiety disorder is a debilitating condition that affects up to 10% of the adult population in the world. Mapping of brain activity in patients and in mouse models has shown that anxiety- related behavior is associated ...
