Endothermy is an evolutionary innovation in Eutherian mammals and birds. In Eutherian mammals, UCP1 is a key protein in adaptive nonshivering thermogenesis. Although ucp1 arose early in the vertebrate
This dataset includes summary physiology and MRI data used in a publication identifying sex differences in insular organization to an autonomic challenge, the hand grip. The protocol consistent of hea
Using a hybrid computational-biochemical approach, we have demonstrated the endogenous presence of a large and sequence diverse class of orphan, blood-borne peptides that we call “capped peptides.” Ca
Animals native to the hypoxic and cold environment at high altitude provide an excellent opportunity to elucidate the integrative mechanisms underlying the adaptive evolution of complex traits. The ca
