摘要:Directed cell migration is driven by the front-back polarization of intracellular signalling 1-3 . Receptor tyrosine kinases and other inputs activate local signals that trigger membrane protrusions at the front 2,4-6 . Equally important is a long-range inhibitory mechanism that suppresses signalling at the back to prevent the formation of multiple fronts 7-9 . However, the identity of this mechanism is unknown. Here we report that endoplasmic reticulum-plasma membrane (ER-PM) contact sites ar...

摘要:Concerted nucleophilic substitution, known as S(N)2 reaction, is a fundamental organic transformation used in synthesis to introduce new functional groups and construct carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom bonds(1). S(N)2 reactions typically involve backside attack of a nucleophile to the sigma* orbital of a C(sp(3))-X bond (X=halogen or other leaving group), resulting in complete inversion of a stereocentre(2). By contrast, the corresponding stereoinvertive nucleophilic substitution on electro...

摘要:Streptococcus pneumoniae is a leading cause of pneumonia and meningitis worldwide. Many different serotypes co-circulate endemically in any one location(1,2). The extent and mechanisms of spread and vaccine-driven changes in fitness and antimicrobial resistance remain largely unquantified. Here using geolocated genome sequences from South Africa (n=6,910, collected from 2000 to 2014), we developed models to reconstruct spread, pairing detailed human mobility data and genomic data. Separately, ...

摘要:Many threats to biodiversity cannot be eliminated; for example, invasive pathogens may be ubiquitous. Chytridiomycosis is a fungal disease that has spread worldwide, driving at least 90 amphibian species to extinction, and severely affecting hundreds of others1-4. Once the disease spreads to a new environment, it is likely to become a permanent part of that ecosystem. To enable coexistence with chytridiomycosis in the field, we devised an intervention that exploits host defences and pathogen v...

摘要:Liquid crystals, with their ability to self-assemble, strong response to an electric field and integrability into complex systems, are key materials in light-beam manipulation(1). The recently discovered ferroelectric nematic liquid crystals(2,3) also have considerable second-order optical nonlinearity, making them a potential material for nonlinear optics(4,5). Their use as sources of quantum light could considerably extend the boundaries of photonic quantum technologies(6). However, spontane...

摘要:Naturally occurring (native) sugars and carbohydrates contain numerous hydroxyl groups of similar reactivity 1,2 . Chemists, therefore, rely typically on laborious, multi-step protecting-group strategies 3 to convert these renewable feedstocks into reagents (glycosyl donors) to make glycans. The direct transformation of native sugars to complex saccharides remains a notable challenge. Here we describe a photoinduced approach to achieve site- and stereoselective chemical glycosylation from wide...

摘要:The initial rise of molecular oxygen (O-2) shortly after the Archaean-Proterozoic transition 2.5 billion years ago was more complex than the single step-change once envisioned. Sulfur mass-independent fractionation records suggest that the rise of atmospheric O-2 was oscillatory, with multiple returns to an anoxic state until perhaps 2.2 billion years ago(1-3). Yet few constraints exist for contemporaneous marine oxygenation dynamics, precluding a holistic understanding of planetary oxygenatio...
