Abstract: Hepcidin is a small cysteine rich peptide that regulates the sole known cellular iron exporter, ferroportin, effectively controlling iron metabolism. Contrary to humans, where a single hepcidin exists, many fish have two functionally distinct hepcidin… read more here.

Abstract: As we uncover the ubiquity of hybridization in nature, determining how natural selection acts on hybrids has newfound importance for speciation. A study in PLOS Biology uses threespine stickleback to detect a genomic signature of… read more here.
