Disentangling high harmonic generation from surface and bulk states of a topological insulator
Protracted ocean circulation slowdown drove exceptional ice-sheet melting during ice age termination IV
The in-stream renewable energy potential of rivers for remote communities in the global Arctic
Abstract Many Arctic communities rely on diesel-generated electricity, resulting in high costs, environmental impacts, and limited development opportunities. Hydrokinetic energy (HKE...
Evolutionary tuning of a biosynthetic gene cluster drives furanocoumarin accumulation and diversification
Selective interaction of SMCHD1 with chromatin is governed by LRIF1 and SMCHD1 ATPase activity
Abstract The chromosomal protein SMCHD1 is a GHKL ATPase with important roles in epigenetic silencing, including on the inactive X chromosome (Xi). Mutations of SMCHD1 have been link...
Machine learning-assisted high-speed combinatorial optimization with Ising machines for dynamically changing problems
Reconstructing building genealogy with visual intelligence
Giant bulk photovoltaic effect in an iron-based magnetic semiconductor
Abstract Efficient bulk photovoltaic (BPV) conversion and room-temperature ferromagnetism are difficult to combine, because the itinerant electrons that support...
Cell polarity control by an unconventional G-protein complex in bacteria
Single Ce atom-assisted oxygen vacancies as active and stable sites for CO2 conversion
Carbocycle editing of ketones proceeds via a radical-mediated bidirectional C-C bond cleavage/coupling strategy
Abstract 1,n-Difunctionalized alkyl linchpins are pivotal building blocks in organic synthesis, functional materials, and pharmaceuticals. However, their prepara...
Engineering Crystalline Frameworks into Porous Liquids to Fabricate Graphene Oxide/Porous Liquid Membranes for Efficient Li+/Mg2+ Separation
An invariant VLR-like receptor refines the T-like cell framework in lamprey
Single-cell map of the healthy human immune system across the lifespan reveals unique infant immune signatures
Continental-scale integration of soil metagenomes and organic matter chemistry reveals ubiquitous microbial capacity for chemically-recalcitrant carbon decomposition
Abstract Soil organic matter (SOM) decomposition by microorganisms is a major uncertainty in predicting terrestrial carbon–atmosphere feedbacks, partly because w...
Structural basis for activation and potentiation in a human α5β3 GABAA receptor
Abstract Anesthetics and anticonvulsants act, in part, through diverse populations of type-A ɣ-aminobutyric acid receptors (GABA A...
Leveraging nanoparticle protein corona to advance plasma proteome profiling
A geometric criterion links HIV-1 capsid topography to its biophysical properties and function
Abstract Mathematical models of virus capsid structure are pillars of modern virology, aiding the understanding of viral mechanisms and the design of antiviral interventions. Traditi...
Diagnostic challenges and Gram-negative pathogen dominance in early- and late-onset neonatal infection in Manila, Philippines
Arene difunctionalization through an acyl-inserting Smiles rearrangement enabled by N-heterocyclic carbene catalysis
Abstract Arene difunctionalization offers a powerful strategy for the simultaneous installation of two functional groups in a single step. Despite recent advance...
Active nitrogen mediated selective ruthenium migration on ceria for high pressure ammonia decomposition
Abstract Precise stabilization of atomic structures under reaction environments remains a central challenge in heterogeneous catalysis. Here, we demonstrate that...
Oncogenic KRAS-driven type I interferon signalling primes pancreatic cancer for necroptosis
Abstract Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is projected to become the second leading cause of cancer-related death within this decade. Here, we show that its major driver oncog...
Breaking continuity to prevent catastrophic building collapse
Transition Radiation Field Enhanced Laser Proton Acceleration Employing Near-Critical-Density Foam
Abstract Laser-driven protons with ultrafast temporal properties attract great interest in fields ranging from flash radiation oncology to compact accelerators....
