摘要:Asymmetric cell divisions specify differential cell fates across kingdoms. In metazoans, preferential inheritance of fate determinants into one daughter cell frequently depends on polarity-cytoskeleton interactions. Despite the prevalence of asymmetric divisions throughout plant development, evidence for analogous mechanisms that segregate fate determinants remains elusive. Here, we describe a mechanism in the Arabidopsis leaf epidermis that ensures unequal inheritance of a fate-enforcing pola...

摘要:Breast milk is a complex biofluid crafted over millions of years of evolution to provide optimal nutrition along with other bioactive compounds to the infant. Human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) are complex sugars that represent the fourth most abundant component of breast milk, which makes them more numerous than proteins and other vital nutrients, yet they provide no direct nutritional benefit to the infant (1). Human evolution does not favor wasteful processes, which suggests that HMOs play ...

摘要:Skeletal ring enlargement is gaining renewed interest in synthetic chemistry and has recently focused on insertion of one or two atoms. Strategies for heterocyclic expansion through small-ring insertion remain elusive, although they would lead to the efficient formation of bicyclic products. Here, we report a photoinduced dearomative ring enlargement of thiophenes by insertion of bicyclo[1.1.0]butanes to produce eight-membered bicyclic rings under mild conditions. The synthetic value, broad fu...

摘要:One way to increase the efficiency of a solar cell is to optimize it to the wide spectrum of sunlight for conversion into electricity. In this vein, a tandem solar cell may comprise a top cell that absorbs high-energy photons and a bottom cell that absorbs low-energy photons. Such a device can be fabricated as a stack of layers, with the top and bottom cell interconnected to each other. Monolithic integration of a perovskite solar cell and silicon solar cell into a tandem device is a promising...

摘要:Ribosomes catalyze protein synthesis by cycling through various functional states. These states have been extensively characterized in vitro, but their distribution in actively translating human cells remains elusive. We used a cryo-electron tomography-based approach and resolved ribosome structures inside human cells with high resolution. These structures revealed the distribution of functional states of the elongation cycle, a Z transfer RNA binding site, and the dynamics of ribosome expansi...

摘要:In Trypanosoma brucei, the editosome, composed of RNA-editing substrate-binding complex (RESC) and RNA-editing catalytic complex (RECC), orchestrates guide RNA (gRNA)-programmed editing to recode cryptic mitochondrial transcripts into messenger RNAs (mRNAs). The mechanism of information transfer from gRNA to mRNA is unclear owing to a lack of high-resolution structures for these complexes. With cryo-electron microscopy and functional studies, we have captured gRNA-stabilizing RESC-A and gRNA-m...
