Global decarbonization corresponding with unseasonal land cover change
Probing weak chemical interactions of metal surface atoms with CO-terminated AFM tips identifies molecular adsorption sites
Abstract Metal surfaces play a key role in on-surface synthesis as they provide a two-dimensional catalytic reaction environment that stimulates activation, diffusion, and coupling of molecu...
Molecular engineering of melanin for enhanced biological γ-ray protection
Large-scale GWAS of strabismus identifies risk loci and provides support for a link with maternal smoking
Structure-guided engineering of type I-F CASTs for targeted gene insertion in human cells
Deep genome sequencing reveals extensive genetic heterogeneity in early human placentas
Abstract Placental biopsy in early pregnancy is widely used in prenatal genetic diagnostics as a surrogate for fetal tissue. Confined placental chromosomal mosaicism is a well-docume...
Evolutionary age correlates with range size across plants and animals
Abstract More than 40 thousand species of plants and animals are facing extinction worldwide. Range size is one of the strongest determinants of extinction risk, but the causes underlying th...
Mesothelin-directed protein-drug conjugates for mesothelin-low solid tumor therapy
Reversible biobased adhesives enable closed-loop engineered composites
Wide temperature range adaptable electric field driven binder for advanced lithium-sulfur batteries
Towards generalist foundation model for radiology by leveraging web-scale 2D&3D medical data
Mechanosensitive channel engineering: A study on the mixing and matching of YnaI and MscS sensor paddles and pores
Abstract Osmotically varying environments are challenging for bacterial cells. Sudden drops in osmolytes cause an increased membrane tension and rupture the cells in the absence of p...
Neural and behavioral reinstatement jointly reflect retrieval of narrative events
Prolonged exposure to food odors suppresses feeding via an olfactory bulb-to-hypothalamus circuit
Cobalt-based catalyst for ammonia synthesis under ambient conditions via transient confinement
Bilateral Geiger mode avalanche in InSe Schottky photodiodes
NSUN2 facilitates DICER cleavage of DNA damage-associated R-loops to promote repair
Abstract DNA integrity is constantly challenged by both endogenous and exogenous damaging agents, resulting in various forms of damage. Failure to repair DNA acc...
Autonomous multi-robot synthesis and optimization of metal halide perovskite nanocrystals
Molecular insights of acarbose metabolization catalyzed by acarbose-preferred glucosidase
The role of C-O-H-F-Cl fluids in the making of Earth’s continental roots
Abstract The cratonic ‘roots’ of Earth’s major continents extend to depths of over 160 km and have remained stable for more than 2.5 billion years due to buoyant...
Ultra-stable low-coordinated PtSA/CeZrO2 ordered macroporous structure integrated industrial-scale monolithic catalysts for high-temperature oxidation
Abstract Platinum-group metals (Pt) commonly used in thermal catalytic processes often suffer from catalyst deactivation, such as Pt sintering, Pt overoxidation, and Pt loss under high-tempe...
Collaborative design of polarization and antiferrodistortion configurations in high energy capacitive relaxor ferroelectrics
Harnessing artificial intelligence to identify Bufalin as a molecular glue degrader of estrogen receptor alpha
Early lineage segregation of primary myotubes from secondary myotubes and adult muscle stem cells
Abstract Myogenesis in amniotes occurs in two waves. Primary myotubes express slow myosin (often with fast myosin) and likely act as scaffolds for secondary myotubes, which express o...
Coordinated regulation of pH alkalinization by two transcription factors promotes fungal commensalism and pathogenicity
Abstract As a clinically relevant opportunistic human fungal pathogen, Candida albicans is able to rapidly sense and adapt to changing microenvironments within the host, a process that is es...
