Cardiac 7-transmembrane-spanning domain receptor portfolios: diversify, diversify, diversify.
Enhanced signaling in myocytes by the G protein Gq has been implicated in cardiac hypertrophy and the transition to heart failure. alpha1-Adrenergic receptors (alpha1-ARs) are members of the 7-transmembrane-spanning domain (7-TM) receptor family and signal via interaction with Gq in the heart. The specific effects of a loss of alpha1-AR signaling in the heart are explored by O'Connell et al. in...
متن کاملBacteria diversify
Bacteria diversify nfectious bacteria often grow in their hosts as biofilms. Blaise Boles, Matthew Thoendel, and Pradeep Singh (University of Iowa, Iowa City, IA) now report that growth in biofilms causes Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteria to diversify. The resultant diverse populations are probably more able to cope with changing environmental conditions, providing a bacterial correlate of the re...
متن کاملELKS1 helps neuronal synapses diversify
Study reveals how neurons vary the properties of individual synapses by recruiting different Munc13 proteins to presynaptic active zones.
متن کاملSpeciation: Don't Fly and Diversify?
Loss of flight in Japanese carrion beetles is correlated with greater population subdivision and higher speciation rate. This reveals the complex relationship of trait evolution with dispersal power, range size and diversification.
متن کاملThe Gustatory System of Lampreys
The present is a review of the gustatory system of lampreys, which are representative of the earliest vertebrates. They are the oldest extant vertebrates that possess taste buds. Because of the phylogenetic position of lampreys, the study of their gustatory system will provide important information to help understand the early evolution of this system in vertebrates. The taste buds of larval la...
