Active disambiguation guides inferring controllability and cause in social interactions
Abstract There has been considerable interest in how we ascertain whether an environment is controllable and the neural mechanisms mediating this process. An especially acute version...
Rational design of flavivirus E protein vaccine optimizes immunogenicity and mitigates antibody dependent enhancement risk
Abstract Flaviviruses are a family of related viruses that cause substantial global morbidity and mortality. Vaccination against one flavivirus can sometimes exacerbate disease cause...
Morpholino–RNA duplex exhibits robust, sustained, and safe steric-block antisense activity by intracerebroventricular and intrathecal injection
Antibiotic use and survival from breast cancer: A population-based cohort study in England and Wales
Abstract The role of the gut microbiota in carcinogenesis is increasingly being acknowledged. Recent studies in multiple breast cancer mouse models have found th...
Mapping cis- and trans-regulatory target genes of human-specific deletions
Abstract Deletion of functional sequence is predicted to represent a fundamental mechanism of molecular evolution. Comparative genetic studies of primates have i...
Gaps in tropical science from unrepresentative distribution of sampling and citation across natural terrestrial environments
Abstract Effective environmental policies for the tropics depend on accurate, representative scientific data. However, there is strong evidence from particular disciplines and region...
Kinetochore mutations and histone phosphorylation pattern changes accompany holo- and macro-monocentromere evolution
Abstract Centromeres are essential for kinetochore assembly and spindle attachment. While chromosomes of most species are monocentric with a single centromere, a...
Scoping review of artificial intelligence via mobile technology and social media for health in Africa
Identifying grain boundary and intragranular pinning centres in Sm2(Co,Fe,Cu,Zr)17 permanent magnets to guide performance optimisation
Abstract Permanent magnets draw their properties from a complex interplay of chemical composition and phase, each with their associated intrinsic magnetic proper...
Anti-CRISPR protein AcrIIA5 can enhance the activity and security of prime editing
Synchronous mid-Holocene marine and terrestrial deglaciation in the Ross Sea, Antarctica
Abstract The Ross Ice Shelf buttresses ice draining from both East and West Antarctica and its collapse could accelerate the loss of inland ice sheets, rapidly r...
Quantum sensing with spin defects in boron nitride nanotubes
Abstract Spin defects in semiconductors are widely investigated for various applications in quantum sensing. Conventional host materials such as diamond and hexagonal boron nitride (...
Preoperative nutritional support in children with Hirschsprung disease: a prospective multicenter open-label randomized controlled trial
Author Correction: Inactivation of cytidine triphosphate synthase 1 prevents fatal auto-immunity in mice
Author Correction: Identification of a non-inhibitory aptameric ligand to CRL2ZYG11B E3 ligase for targeted protein degradation
Recombination junctions from antibody isotype switching classify immune and DNA repair dysfunction
Abstract Personalized assessment of immunocompetence and DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair requires methods that are sensitive to genetic and molecular complexity beyond the well-...
Author Correction: Nanostructured organic sheets sequestering small extracellular vesicles and reactive species to protect against radiation-induced mucositis
Author Correction: Microbiota-reprogrammed phosphatidylcholine inactivates cytotoxic CD8 T cells through UFMylation via exosomal SerpinB9 in multiple myeloma
Pre-marking chromatin with H3K4 methylation is required for accurate zygotic genome activation and development
Abstract In vertebrate embryos, gene expression is first initiated at zygotic genome activation (ZGA). Maternally expressed transcription factors are essential f...
Hammerhead: a compact 300 kV vacuum bushing
Endothelial glycosylation and its emerging role in pulmonary vascular health and disease
Varying relationships between experienced income segregation and travel behaviour across neighbourhood social and urban contexts
Abstract Income segregation is a barrier to social inclusivity and equity. It is affected by individuals’ travel behaviour and socioeconomic status and may be intensified by localise...
