Defect centers have been used to demonstrate a wide range of functionalities (1–5), including remote entanglement (), control of large nuclear spin clusters (), and quantum sensing of local ...

Rapid pathogen detection is crucial for effective disease management, particularly in bloodstream infections. Current molecular diagnostics often require nucleic acid preamplification, adding time and ...

In the secretory pathway, the pH within organelles is gradually acidified, starting at 7.1 to 7.2 in the endoplasmic reticulum, decreasing to 6.0 to 6.7 in the Golgi apparatus/trans-Golgi network ...

Room-temperature superconductors could revolutionize modern technology by enabling lossless power transmission, powerful magnets, advanced medical imaging (MRI), and quantum computing.

In eukaryotes, genomic DNA is packaged into chromatin, which is the substrate for transcription, DNA replication, repair, and recombination. Within chromatin, nucleosomes contain two copies of each of ...

FSP1 expression strongly correlates with cancer resistance to ferroptosis inducers and is associated with poor patient prognosis for some cancers (16, 17, 24).Genetic deletion of FSP1 sensitizes ...

Developing oral biologics has long been a holy grail of protein engineering. Traditional antibodies are large and unstable in the presence of gastrointestinal proteases. Here, we present a strategy to ...

Cotyledon greening is a crucial process for seedlings to survive the dark-to-light transition during their soil emergence. While the complex strategies employed by etiolated seedlings to ensure ...

Among the characteristics shared by all extant living systems (1–3), their chemically controlled self-reproduction ranks perhaps as one of the most spectacular and exclusive.Under the control of their ...

The origin of evolutionary novelties is often underpinned by a complex set of changes. The genetic underpinnings comprise, for instance, gene or genome duplication, mutations, deletions, and ...

Astrocytes have a primary cell body (soma) with numerous branching processes that envelope nearby synapses ().This three-part structure is known as the tripartite synapse ().A single astrocyte can ...

These questions also matter for fisheries and a sustainable pet trade. Without knowing which populations seed the most babies into the next generation, fishermen can’t know where is safe to cast nets ...
