Journal ArticleDOI
Developmental diversification of cortical inhibitory interneurons.
Christian Mayer,Christoph Hafemeister,Rachel C. Bandler,Robert Machold,Renata Batista Brito,Xavier H. Jaglin,Xavier H. Jaglin,Kathryn C. Allaway,Kathryn C. Allaway,Andrew Butler,Gord Fishell,Rahul Satija +11 more
TL;DR: The authors' analysis revealed that the transcription factor Mef2c delineates early precursors of parvalbumin-expressing neurons, and is essential for their development, and uncovered the embryonic emergence of cardinal interneuron subtypes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Timing and completion of puberty in female mice depend on estrogen receptor α-signaling in kisspeptin neurons
Christian Mayer,Maricedes Acosta-Martinez,Sharon L. Dubois,Andrew Wolfe,Sally Radovick,Ulrich Boehm,Jon E. Levine,Jon E. Levine +7 more
TL;DR: It is shown that the temporal coordination of juvenile restraint and subsequent pubertal activation is likely mediated by ERα in two separate kisspeptin neuronal populations in the hypothalamus.
Journal ArticleDOI
The MPI Bioinformatics Toolkit for protein sequence analysis
TL;DR: The MPI Bioinformatics Toolkit is an interactive web service which offers access to a great variety of public and in-house bioinformatic tools grouped into different sections that support sequence searches, multiple alignment, secondary and tertiary structure prediction and classification.
Journal ArticleDOI
Female reproductive maturation in the absence of kisspeptin/GPR54 signaling.
Christian Mayer,Ulrich Boehm +1 more
TL;DR: It is shown that the initiation and completion of reproductive maturation can occur in the absence of kisspeptin/GPR54 signaling, and female mice lacking neurons that express thekisspeptin receptor GPR54 were also fertile.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prediction of protein functional residues from sequence by probability density estimation
TL;DR: The new method FRcons predicts ligand-binding and catalytic residues with higher precision than alternative methods over the entire sensitivity range, reaching 50% and 40% precision at 20% sensitivity, respectively.
