Conclusion: We characterize the homeodomain transcription factor EN1 as a molecular amplifier of TGFβ signaling in myofibroblast differentiation that coordinates cytoskeletal organization in a ...
The cytoskeleton of eukaryotic cells is made of filamentous proteins, and it provides mechanical support to the cell and its cytoplasmic constituents. All cytoskeletons consist of three major ...
This important study leverages the power of Drosophila genetics and sparsely-labeled neurons to propose a new model for neuronal injury signaling. The authors present convincing evidence to support ...
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 ...
Proteins are biopolymers of amino acids (polypeptides), joined by peptide bonds, that are generated by ribosomes. The amino acid sequence, encoded by its gene, determines a protein’s structure ...
