The best-understood receptors that are found concentrated in coated vesicles of mammalian cells are the LDL receptor (which removes LDL from circulating blood), the transferrin receptor (which brings ferric ions bound by transferrin into the cell) and certain hormone receptors (such as that for EGF).
A new colleague at the City of Hope and ultimately a lifelong friend, Susumu Ohno had recently demonstrated that the histologically observable Barr body present in the nuclei of mammalian female cells was a hyperchromatic X chromosome.
Butler & Hooker, (2005) maintain that 'haramiyids' are still stronger candidates for having given rise to the multituberculates than morganucodontids are: "As long as we only have teeth to of the critical taxa, we feel it necessary to adopt the Allotheria concept as a working hypothesis; no doubt the discovery of mammalian skeletal material in the Jurassic will throw new light on the problem", (p. 206).
There are three mammalian hyaluronan synthases described to date - HAS1, HAS2 and HAS3.

Recently, a new mechanosensitive ion channel family was cloned, with two mammalian members, PIEZO1 and PIEZO2.
His research involves the evolution of Eurasian land mammals and terrestrial environments during the Neogene, ecomorphology of ungulates, developmental biology, the function and evolution of mammalian teeth, and scaling problems (changes in size with growth or as species evolve).
It is composed of mTOR, rapamycin-insensitive companion of mTOR (RICTOR), GβL, and mammalian stress-activated protein kinase interacting protein 1 (mSIN1).
Shapiro drew from work as diverse as the adaptivity of the mammalian immune system, ciliate macronuclei and epigenetics.
The mammalian genome contains three genes homologous to C. elegans Fox-1, called Fox-1, Fox-2 and Fox-3.
In science fiction, the concept of an oncolytic virus was first introduced to the public in Jack Williamson's novel Dragon's Island, published in 1951, although Williamson's imaginary virus was based on a bacteriophage rather than a mammalian virus.
Luzio's research is largely concerned with intracellular membrane traffic pathways in mammalian cells and his research group is funded by a programme grant from the Medical Research Council and project grant support from the Wellcome Trust.
Hobson and McCarley hypothesized that a brain stem neuronal mechanism sends pontine-geniculo-occipital (or PGO) waves that automatically activate the mammalian forebrain.
Another isolated tooth, LACM 149371, cannot be aligned securely with any mammalian group.
Activity of the SIX3 gene represses Wnt1 gene activity which ensures development of the forebrain and establishes the proper anterior posterior identity in the mammalian brain.
