Insight into greenhouse gas emission in freshwater aquaculture ponds in Jiangsu Province: Variation due to species used and ponds management practice
Li, Yifan; Wang, Hongyu; Zeng, Qingfei; Jeppesen, Erik; Gu, Xiaohong; Yan, Jie (2026-02-01)
Aquaculture ponds have emerged as a significant contributor to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. We measured methane (CH4), carbon dioxide (CO2), and nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions in ponds, all located in Jiangsu Province, w...
Api-TRACE: A system for honey bee tracking in a constrained environment to study bee learning process and the effect of lithium on learning
Erdem, Babür; Ince, Ayben; SEVİN, SEDAT; Arslan, Okan Can; Gözen, Ayşe Gül; Giray, Tugrul; Alemdar, Hande (2026-02-01)

Thermal power plants (TPPs) are essential for meeting increasing energy demands, but they also pose significant environmental and health risks. The Yatağan TPP in Türkiye is located near agricultural and residential areas,...
A small molecule enhances arrestin-3 binding to the β2-adrenergic receptor
Kurt, Han; Akyol, Ali; Son, Çağdaş Devrim; Zheng, Chen; Gado, Irene; Meli, Massimiliano; Ferrandi, Erica Elisa; Bassanini, Ivan; Vasile, Francesca; Gurevich, Vsevolod V.; Nebol, Aylin; Cagavi, Esra; Morra, Giulia; Sensoy, Ozge (2025-12-01)
Excessive signaling by various GPCRs underlies a variety of human disorders. Suppression of GPCRs by “enhanced” arrestin mutants was proposed as therapy. We hypothesized that GPCR binding of endogenous arrestins can be inc...

Hedehus, Lin; Mas, Aina M; Alpsoy, Aktan; Armstrong, Robin L; Koche, Richard; Tatar, Tülin; Wang, Hua; Helin, Kristian (2025-11-22)
Our understanding of epigenetic processes is based on the hypothesis that individual posttranslational modifications of DNA and histones, or combina- tions thereof, function to direct unique downstream effects on transcrip...
Climate and habitat types drive avian communities of the Anatolian Diagonal
Gurol, Ilgin Ertan; Ambarlı, Didem; Zeydanli, Ugur (2025-11-03)
Avian diversity is experiencing alarming declines across the globe. Still, several biodiversity hotspots remain to be studied in terms of avian communities. At the convergence of three global biodiversity hotspots lies the...
Structural basis of DNA-dependent coactivator recruitment by the tuft cell master regulator POU2F3
Alpsoy, Aktan; Ipsaro, Jonathan J.; Skopelitis, Damianos; Pal, Sujay; Chung, Frank S.; Carpenter, Shannon; Desmarais, John J.; Wu, Xiaoli S.; Chang, Kenneth; DiMare, Matthew T.; Harten, Erin; Bergman, Staci; Kinney, Justin B.; Engelman, Jeffrey A.; Bhang, Hyo-Eun C.; Joshua-Tor, Leemor; Vakoc, Christopher R. (2025-11-01)
The transcription factor POU2F3 defines the identity of tuft cells and underlies a distinct molecular subtype of small cell lung cancer (SCLC). Although POU2F3 is considered undruggable, its activity critically depends on ...
Diverse Foraging in Small-Bodied Fishes: Effects on Water Quality and Submerged Macrophytes in Shallow Subtropical Lake Ecosystems
Guo, Chao; Li, Wei; Hansen, Adam G.; Li, Shiqi; Ke, Jie; Jeppesen, Erik; Liao, Chuansong; Yuan, Jing; Zhang, Tanglin; Guo, Chuanbo; Liu, Jiashou (2025-11-01)
The proliferation of small-bodied fishes and their foraging effects within food webs can limit the growth of submerged macrophytes and degrade water quality in shallow lake ecosystems. The foraging habits of small-bodied f...

Intraguild Predation Is Insufficiently Mitigated by Complex-Structured Aquatic Vegetation
Su, Yaling; He, Hu; Li, Kuanyi; Liu, Zhengwen; Jeppesen, Erik (2025-10-01)
Intraguild predation (IGP) occurs when one predator species consumes another species with whom it also competes for shared prey. IGP is widely believed to reduce prey suppression. In terrestrial ecosystems, structurally co...
Phosphorylation of SNAP-25 at Ser187 is enhanced following its cleavage by Botulinum Neurotoxin Serotype A, promoting the dominant-negative effect of the resulting fragment
