In most multicellular organisms, meiosis is restricted to germ cells that are set aside in early development. The germ cells reside in specialized environments provided by the gonads, or sex organs.

This manuscript applies a theoretical analysis to two published datasets on yeast and bacterial evolution to compare different ways of quantifying fitness. It makes an important advance by clarifying ...

In normal brain tissue, tau stabilizes microtubules, which are key parts of cell structure. In Alzheimer’s, however, tau buildup may cause protein strands, or threads, to become tangled.
