How we measure 'reads'
A 'read' is counted each time someone views a publication summary (such as the title, abstract, and list of authors), clicks on a figure, or views or downloads the full-text. Learn more

The surge in interest in individual differences has coincided with the latest replication crisis centered around brain-wide association studies of brain-behavior correlations. Yet the reliability of the measures we use in cognitive neuroscience, a crucial component of this brain-behavior relationship, is often assumed but not directly tested. Here,...
We asked young scientists to write a rule that all principal investigators (PIs) should be required to follow to improve the experience of young scientists in their lab. Read a selection of their suggestions below. Follow NextGen Voices on Twitter with hashtag #NextGenSci. —Jennifer Sills

Nucleolin is a multifunctional RNA Binding Protein (RBP) with diverse subcellular localizations, including the nucleolus in all eukaryotic cells, the plasma membrane in tumor cells, and the axon in neurons. Here we show that the glycine arginine rich (GAR) domain of nucleolin drives subcellular localization via protein-protein interactions with a k...
Multiconfiguration pair-density functional (MC-PDFT) theory provides an economical way to calculate the ground-state and excited-state energetics of strongly correlated systems. The energy is calculated from the kinetic energy, density, and on-top pair-density of a multiconfiguration wave function as the sum of kinetic energy, classical Coulomb ene...
The detailed functional mechanism of recoverin, which acts as a myristoyl switch at the rod outer-segment disk membrane, is elucidated by direct and replica-exchange molecular dynamics. In accord with NMR structural evidence and calcium binding essays, simulations point to the key role of enhanced calcium binding to the EF3 loop of the semi-open st...
Recoverin is a neuronal calcium sensor involved in vision adaptation that reversibly associates with cellular membranes via its calcium-activated myristoyl switch. While experimental evidence shows that the myristoyl group significantly enhances membrane affinity of this protein, molecular details of the binding process are still under debate. Here...
The Mason-Pfizer monkey virus is a type D retrovirus, which assembles its immature particles in the cytoplasm prior to their transport to the host cell membrane. The association with the membrane is mediated by the N-terminally myristoylated matrix protein. To reveal the role of particular residues which are involved in the capsid-membrane interact...
