The 2,272,351–base pair genome of Neisseria meningitidis strain MC58 (serogroup B), a
causative agent of meningitis and septicemia, contains 2158 predicted coding regions, 1158 (…

Although women have nearly attained equality with men in several formerly male-dominated
fields, they remain underrepresented in the fields of science, technology, engineering, and …

The goal congruity perspective posits that 2 distinct social cognitions predict attraction to
science, technology, engineering, or mathematics (STEM) fields. First, individuals may …

Invadopodia are branched actin-rich structures associated with extracellular matrix (ECM)
degradation that collectively form the invasive machinery of aggressive cancer cells. Cortactin …

Unconventional secretion of exosome vesicles from multivesicular endosomes (MVEs)
occurs across a broad set of systems and is reported to be upregulated in cancer, where it …

We report the direct observation of quantum coupling in individual quantum dot molecules
and its manipulation using static electric fields. A pronounced anticrossing of different …

The goal congruity perspective provides a theoretical framework to understand how
motivational processes influence and are influenced by social roles. In particular, we invoke this …

Invadopodia are actin-rich subcellular protrusions with associated proteases used by cancer
cells to degrade extracellular matrix (ECM) [1]. Molecular components of invadopodia …

Background: Lamellipodial protrusion, which is the first step in cell movement, is driven by
actin assembly and requires activity of the Arp2/3 actin-nucleating complex. However, it is …

Invadopodia are actin-dependent organelles that function in the invasion and remodeling of
the extracellular matrix (ECM) by tumor cells. Cortactin, a regulator of the Arp2/3 complex, is …
