Modulation of amyloid assembly by chaperone-like proteins Soluble proteins have an inherent propensity to undergo altered protein folding, forming cross-B sheet-rich structures called amyloids. Amyloid fibrils have gained significant attention … Read More
Discovery and characterization of a novel family of PIEZO channel auxiliary subunits PIEZO channels are critical cellular sensors of mechanical forces. Native PIEZO1 channels can display nonuniform subcellular localization and exhibit … Read More
Symmetry breaking and self-organization of a body axis from mouse embryonic stem cells Abstract: During development, the embryo must break symmetry to form body axes and patterned tissue structures. Recent … Read More
