TL;DR: The importance of zinc in biology is evidenced by the growing number of disease states that directly involve aberrant levels of zinc, including neurodegeneration, inflammation, diabetes, cancer and more.

TL;DR: A molecular process that explains why zinc is required for cell division is discovered, involving two highly regulated zinc transporters, as a heteromer of ZIP6 and ZIP10, providing the means of cellular zinc entry at a specific time of the cell cycle that initiates a pathway resulting in the onset of mitosis.

TL;DR: The development to date of the Env specification is discussed, an informal specification including descriptors related to geographic location, environment, organism relationship, and phenotype, and how it has been used to extend the Minimum Information About a Microarray Experiment data standard to create a domain-specific extension that is termed MIAME/Env.

TL;DR: A novel aspartic proteinase from the liver of two Antarctic fish species is described and Sequence analysis shows features for the Antarctic enzymes which are not present in related enzymes of other organisms.

TL;DR: A population of the amphipod Echinogammarus marinus presenting both female bias and high levels of intersexuality, which are infected with D. deubenum was found to have a previously unknown paramyxean parasite related to organisms of the genus Marteilia, a group known to cause catastrophic sexual dysfunction in bivalves.
