DNA repair mechanisms help explain why naked mole-rats live a long life
Naked mole-rats are one of nature’s most extraordinary creatures. These burrowing rodents can live for up to 37 years, around ten times longer than relatives of a similar size. But what is the secret to their extreme longevity? How are they able to delay the decay and decline that befalls other rodents? The answer, at least in part, is due to a switch in a common protein that boosts DNA repair, according to new research published i … ⌘ Read more

Fire provides long-lasting benefits to bird populations in Sierra Nevada National Parks
Researchers have found that low to moderate-severity fires not only benefit many bird species in the Sierra Nevada, but these benefits may persist for decades. In addition to a handful of bird species already known to be “post-fire specialists,” a broad variety of other more generalist species, like Dark-eyed Juncos and Mountain Chickadees, clearly benefited from wildfire. ⌘ Read more

Toxoplasmosis: How the pathogen exploits its own cell envelope
According to estimates, about a third of the world’s population is infected with the single-celled parasite Toxoplasma gondii, the pathogen of toxoplasmosis. Although harmless for most people, the infection can be dangerous for unborn children and people with weakened immune systems. In these cases, the pathogen can propagate rapidly and destroy infected tissue. It obtains the energy it needs for propagation by tapping the ho … ⌘ Read more
