Cellular and Molecular Biology (inferred)
In a recent study, 33% of individuals with neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) carried mutations in ASXL3, whose function is unknown. To understand ASXL3’s role in NDDs, we used CRISPR tec…

Cellular and Molecular Biology (inferred)
The synaptic hub protein Munc13 plays a pivotal role in almost all known forms of fast chemical synaptic transmission. This essential protein has also been shown to mediate several forms of…
AJAS · 2018
Cellular and Molecular Biology (inferred)
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) currently remains the sixth leading cause of death in the US. Despite decades of research devoted to understanding AD, a cure does not exist. Many researchers have f…
