- Activation State of the M3 Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptor Modulates Mammalian Odorant Receptor Signaling
Crosstalk between neurotransmitter signaling and odorant signaling may enhance the sense of smell.
Perspective
- Autonomic Modulation of Olfactory Signaling
Associations between receptors for odorants and acetylcholine result in enhanced odorant receptor signaling.
Meeting Report
- Cilia 2010: The Surprise Organelle of the Decade
Scientists discussed advances in cilia biology and the role of cilia in development and disease.
Teaching Resource
- Signaling by Neuronal Swelling
Physical changes associated with the electrical activity of neurons mediate intercellular signaling.

A bacterial effector protein acts as an artificial scaffold for a GTPase and kinase at the Golgi.
- Tolerant Metabolism
Oscillations in the activity of mTOR regulate the responsiveness of regulatory T cells.
- Avoiding CO2
A free-living nematode relies on a receptor guanylate cyclase and a cGMP-gated channel to move away from carbon dioxide.
- Chill Wind
Spring flowering enabled by a winter chill is regulated by interplay between protein-coding and noncoding RNA transcripts.
