摘要:The launch of Grokipedia, an AI-generated encyclopedia developed by xAI, was presented as a response to perceived ideological and structural biases in Wikipedia, with the goal of producing more truthful entries using the Grok large language model. However, whether such an AI-driven alternative can systematically correct the biases and limitations of human-edited platforms remains unclear. Here we conduct a large-scale computational comparison of 17,790 matched article pairs drawn from the 20,0...

摘要:Many biochemical pathways can be monitored by outfitting molecular switches with reporting mechanisms such as fluorescence. The output of these biosensors can either increase or decrease upon target activation. Both types can report average relative changes in time. But a na & iuml;ve imaging of inverse biosensors, which gives readout decrease, will form nonsensical images by giving low values to both the background and foreground. Thus, currently, superresolution enzyme activity imaging canno...

摘要:Manganese (oxyhydr)oxides are abundant redox-active minerals that influence diverse biogeochemical processes, yet their redox reactivity remains poorly understood due to variations in mineral structure and manganese oxidation state. We quantified the reduction kinetics of three geochemically relevant manganese oxides-birnessite, manganite, and hausmannite-using extracellular electron shuttles with varying redox potentials to systematically modulate the driving force for electron transfer. Whil...

摘要:Oxidation of cysteine thiols to sulfonate groups (-SO3 -) by reactive oxygen species can regulate protein function. Near the end of inflammation, this modification in the extracellular HMGB1 protein abolishes its proinflammatory activity. Using NMR spectroscopy, we investigated how thiol-to-sulfonate oxidation switches HMGB1's function. Our data show that the oxidation of cysteine 106 (C106) induces unfolding of the HMGB1 B-box domain. In contrast, other chemical modifications, such as S-gluta...

摘要:Building public support for ambitious climate policies is a central challenge for governments seeking to decarbonize their economies. Many climate change mitigation policies impose visible material costs on citizens, and governments have limited fiscal capacity to deploy compensatory measures. Education is often used as a tool to build public awareness about climate change, but its effect on support for climate policies is not well understood. We evaluate the effects of a climate education pol...

摘要:Androgens and estrogens rapidly influence brain function and behaviors critical to social species, including social recognition, which is essential for group living and modulating social interactions. The specific brain regions involved and their hormonal regulation remain poorly understood. This regulation is complex, as the main circulating androgen, testosterone (T), is metabolized into estrogenic (17 beta-estradiol, E2) and androgenic (dihydrotestosterone, DHT) compounds, meaning its actio...

摘要:The delayed collapse of colloidal gels is a vexing problem. Although the equilibrium behavior of colloid-polymer mixtures is well understood, that of far-from-equilibrium gels is surprisingly complex. As the gels age, they become stronger due to coarsening but exhibit no other macroscopic change. Quite counterintuitively for a material whose strength increases with time, gels may undergo sudden, catastrophic collapse under gravity, sometimes weeks or even years after preparation. An understand...

摘要:Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus (SFTSV) is an emerging tick-borne phenuivirus causing high mortality in humans. While the nonstructural protein NSs is dispensable for replication in interferon-deficient mammalian cells, we demonstrate that NSs is essential for viral replication in tick cells. SFTSV infection triggers canonical Dicer-2-mediated antiviral RNA interference (RNAi) in tick cells, producing virus-derived small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) that target viral transcripts...
