The paper shows that island isolation and genetic drift rapidly drive speciation in macaques, leading to genomic divergence, loss of diversity, and adaptive mutations.

This study shows that calpain cleaves TRPV1's carboxyl terminus, reducing its membrane localization and increasing resistance to tachyphylaxis during repeated capsaicin exposure.

This study shows that the Drosophila transcription factor broad regulates leg disc morphogenesis by controlling ECM remodeling, cell shape changes, and metabolic activity during metamorphosis.
