Frequency multiplexing with dispersion-engineered elastic metasurfaces
Dynamic assembly of a large multidomain ribozyme visualized by cryo-electron microscopy
Abstract Many RNAs rely on their 3D structures for function. While acquiring functional 3D structures, certain RNAs form misfolded, non-functional states (‘kinetic traps’). Instead,...
Genetic evolution of keratinocytes to cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma
Abstract Cutaneous squamous cell carcinomas (cSCCs) arise from keratinocytes in the skin, but the molecular changes driving this transformation remain unclear. T...
Edge polaritons at metal-insulator boundaries in a phase separated correlated oxide
Organic parallel grouping crystals without grain boundary
Targeting hepatocytic TβRI ameliorates liver metastatic outcomes by revitalizing stem-like CD8+ Tex subsets
Non-loss engraved circuit patterning method of semi-liquid metal for precision recyclable multi-substrate circuits
Abstract Room-temperature liquid metal alloys have emerged as promising materials for flexible electronics due to their unique fluidity, conductivity, and biocompatibility. However,...
Site-specific synergy by heteronuclear microenvironment atomic editing for oxygen reduction reaction
Smart 3D super-resolution microscopy reveals the architecture of the RNA scaffold in a nuclear body
Abstract Small subcellular organelles orchestrate key cellular functions. How biomolecules are spatially organized within these assemblies is poorly understood....
Identifying the factors governing internal state switches during nonstationary sensory decision-making
Abstract Traditional models of perceptual decision-making fail to capture dynamic strategy switching in non-stationary environments, and the factors governing these switches remain u...
Discontinuous orbital angular momentum metasurface holography
A prospective trial for breast cancer diagnosis by canine odorology
Sulfophenylated centimeter-sized graphene membrane in a direct methanol fuel cell
Mutations in the β-tubulin TUBB impair ciliogenesis and are associated with ciliopathy-like phenotypes
Transition towards plate tectonics tracked in the metamorphic signature of Neoarchean synmagmatic transpression
Abstract Secular mantle cooling has progressively strengthened Earth’s lithosphere, enabling a variety of tectonic styles. The emergence of transpressional orogens in the Neoarchean...
Abrupt structural transition in exotic molybdenum isotopes unveils an isospin-symmetric island of inversion
Abstract Like electrons in atoms, protons and neutrons in nuclei occupy orbitals in a shell structure with energy gaps at magic numbers. Radioactive-beam experim...
Dysregulation of homeostatic cytokine receptors drives prolonged T cell activation following acute SARS-CoV-2 infection in humans
Abstract Acute viral infections are usually cleared by an efficient anti-pathogen immune response, following which immune homeostasis is restored. Occasionally,...
Deleterious variants in the autophagy-related gene RB1CC1/FIP200 impair immunity to SARS-CoV-2
Flexible time-restricted eating combined with exercise in a free-living setting for middle-aged women with overweight/obesity: a randomized controlled trial
Abstract Obesity poses a significant public health challenge among middle-aged women, driven by physiological changes associated with aging and menopause. This p...
Entropy-driven toughening and closed-loop recycling of polymers via divergent metal-pyrazole interactions
Oxygen nanoclustering evades inverse Hall-Petch softening
Abstract Grain refinement can drastically increase the strength of metals. However, this approach tends to become less effective or even inverses once grain size...
The CIP2A-TOPBP1 axis facilitates mitotic DNA repair via MiDAS and MMEJ
Abstract Mitotic DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) accumulate in response to replication stress or BRCA1/2 deficiency posing a significant threat to genome stability as repair by non-h...
