摘要:New atmospheric particles form when the stratosphere intrudes into the troposphere Aerosol particles smaller than 1 mm in diameter are ubiquitous in the troposphere, the lowest part of Earth's atmosphere responsible for weather and a major part of the climate system. They act as condensation sites for water vapor from which cloud droplets grow and hence, are part of the hydrological cycle. Precipitation removes these particles on timescales of a few days to weeks. A major challenge is understa...

摘要:Intercellular communication in the nervous system occurs through the release of neurotransmitters into the synaptic cleft between neurons. In the presynaptic neuron, the proton pumping vesicular- or vacuolar-type ATPase (V-ATPase) powers neurotransmitter loading into synaptic vesicles (SVs), with the V(1 )complex dissociating from the membrane region of the enzyme before exocytosis. We isolated SVs from rat brain using SidK, a V-ATPase-binding bacterial effector protein. Single-particle electr...

摘要:Millions of hibernating bats across North America have died from white-nose syndrome (WNS), an emerging disease caused by a psychrophilic (cold-loving) fungus, Pseudogymnoascus destructans, that invades their skin. Mechanisms of P. destructans invasion of bat epidermis remain obscure. Guided by our in vivo observations, we modeled hibernation with a newly generated little brown bat (Myotis lucifugus) keratinocyte cell line. We uncovered the stealth intracellular lifestyle of P. destructans, wh...
