The mechanism of thioamide formation by the YcfA-YcfC system in 6-thioguanine biosynthesis
The intrinsic time tracker: temporal context is embedded in entorhinal and hippocampal functional connectivity patterns
Abstract Changes in task-evoked activity in the entorhinal cortex (EC) and hippocampus have been shown to track changes in temporal context at short and long timescales. However, whether spo...
Interfacial chemistry-driven reaction dynamics and resultant microstructural evolution in lithium-based all-solid-state batteries
Abstract Achieving a comprehensive understanding of battery systems necessitates multi-length scale analysis, from the atomic- to macro-scale, to grasp the compl...
A blueprint for designing the next-generation of synthetic C1 microbes
Prenatal exposure to Zika virus shapes offspring neutrophil function in a sex-specific manner
Abstract Maternal viral infection during pregnancy can have lasting consequences on offspring immune development. Zika virus (ZIKV) is known to trigger maternal immune activation (MIA), yet...
Author Correction: Cross-population GWAS and proteomics improve risk prediction and reveal mechanisms in atrial fibrillation
A deep single cell mass cytometry approach to capture canonical and noncanonical cell cycle states
Abstract The cell cycle (CC) underpins diverse cell processes like cell differentiation, cell expansion, and tumorigenesis but current single-cell (sc) strategies study CC as: coarse phases,...
A stable monoclinic variant and resultant robust ferroelectricity in single-crystalline hafnia-based films
AI-embodied multi-modal flexible electronic robots with programmable sensing, actuating and self-learning
Abstract Achieving robust environmental interaction in small-scale soft robotics remains challenging due to limitations in terrain adaptability, real-time perception, and autonomous decision...
All-optical voltage interrogation for probing synaptic plasticity in vivo
Abstract Measuring synaptic efficacy and defining the rules for induction of synaptic plasticity at identified connections in the mammalian brain is essential for understanding how synapses...
Tellurium-assisted growth of large-scale atom-thin insulating amorphous carbon on insulating substrates
A physiologically-relevant intermediate state structure of a voltage-gated potassium channel
Template Learning: Deep learning with domain randomization for particle picking in cryo-electron tomography
Abstract Cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET) enables three-dimensional visualization of biomolecules and cellular components in their near-native state. A key challenge in cryo-ET data analys...
SFPQ-TFE3 reciprocally regulates mTORC1 and induces lineage plasticity in a mouse model of renal tumorigenesis
Abstract MiT/TFE gene fusions like SFPQ-TFE3 drive both epithelial (translocation RCC) and mesenchymal (PEComas) neoplasms. However, no mouse models for SFPQ-TFE3-related tumors exist and th...
Creative experiences and brain clocks
Abstract Creative experiences may enhance brain health, yet metrics and mechanisms remain elusive. We characterized brain health using brain clocks, which capture deviations from chronologic...
Mitotic DNA repair by TMEJ suppresses replication stress-induced nuclear envelope reassembly defect
Observation of multiple time crystals in a driven-dissipative system with Rydberg gas
Bayesian analyses of radiocarbon dates suggest multiple origins of ceramic technology in Early Holocene Africa
Abstract Ceramic technology emerged and spread in Saharan Africa between the end of the 11th and the beginning of the 10th millennium cal BP during the so-called African Humid Period. This i...
Plasma-electrocatalytic synthesis of urea from air and CO2
Membrane-free redox flow battery with polymer electrolytes
The inner nuclear membrane protein LEMD3 organizes the 3D chromatin architecture to maintain vascular smooth muscle cell identity
Multi-domain O-GlcNAcase structures reveal allosteric regulatory mechanisms
Abstract Nucleocytoplasmic protein O-GlcNAcylation is a dynamic modification catalysed by O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT) and reversed by O-GlcNAc hydrolase (OGA), whose activities are regulated...
A safe, T cell-inducing heterologous vaccine against elephant endotheliotropic herpesvirus in a proof-of-concept study
Abstract We report the results of the world’s first trial of a vaccine against elephant endotheliotropic herpesvirus (EEHV) in elephants. EEHV-induced haemorrhagic disease is a major threat...
Boosting and stabilizing oxygen evolution reaction through Ru single atoms anchored amorphous NiMoOx electrocatalyst
A long-term self-driven metronomic photodynamic system for cancer therapy
Abstract Metronomic photodynamic therapy is a long-term, low-dose treatment strategy that employs optical devices with continuous photosensitizer administration and requires stable device at...
