R_4_10 — Cetacean Evolution: Whales, Dolphins, and the Return to the Sea

The evolution of cetaceans — whales, dolphins, and porpoises — from small, four-legged terrestrial mammals to the largest animals ever to live on Earth is one of the best-documented major evolutionary transitions, suppor

K_2_22 — Voltage-Gated Ion Channels and Neural Excitability

Voltage-gated ion channels are transmembrane proteins whose conformation depends on membrane potential, opening a selective pore for Na⁺, K⁺, Ca²⁺, or Cl⁻ when voltage thresholds are crossed. They are the molecular engin
