The paper demonstrates that baseline-normalized metrics are essential for accurately interpreting fear memory in mice, showing that conventional freezing scores confound locomotor activity.

This study identifies an extracellular K+ binding site in Cys-loop receptors that modulates pore conformations and Cl- conductance, with similar mechanisms observed in a human glycine receptor variant.

This paper characterizes a blue-sensitive, Gi/o-biased, and bistable ciliary opsin from a fan worm and explores its spectral and signaling properties through mutagenesis.

This study identifies key residues in APETx1 and hERG that mediate inhibition by stabilizing the resting state of the hERG channel.

This study identifies SLO potassium channels and CNG-3 as regulators of temperature preference transition timing in C. elegans thermotaxis behavior.
