摘要:The Caenorhabditis elegans bZIP transcription factor ZIP- 2 is activated by toxins or mutations that inhibit translational elongation. The zip- 2 DNA- binding protein is encoded in a downstream main open reading frame (mORF), but under normal translation elongation conditions only an upstream overlapping oORF- 1 frameshifted from mORF is translated. Mutations or toxins that slow translational elongation, but not inhibitors of translational initiation or termination, activate ZIP- 2. An mORF in...

摘要:Carbon dioxide is a signaling cue critical for fungal pathogenesis. Ptc2, a type 2C phosphoproteomic and biochemical assays, we identified Hsp90 as a direct target of Ptc2 at host CO2 concentrations and Ssb1 as a Ptc2 target protein regardless of CO2 levels in Candida albicans, the most prevalent human fungal pathogen. Ptc2 forms reversible condensates at elevated CO2, which enables the recruitment of Hsp90, but not Ssb1, to condensates, allowing efficient dephosphorylation. This process confe...

摘要:Photosynthetic microbes have evolved and successfully adapted to the ever-changing environmental conditions in complex microhabitats throughout almost all ecosystems on Earth. In the absence of light, they can sustain their biological functionalities through aerobic respiration, and even in anoxic conditions through anaerobic metabolic activity. For a suspension of photosynthetic microbes in an anaerobic environment, individual cellular motility is directly controlled by its photosynthetic act...

摘要:Lesions of the dorsal columns of the spinal cord in adult macaque monkeys lead to the loss of hand inputs and large- scale expansion of the face inputs in the hand region of the somatosensory cortex. Inputs from alternate spinal pathways do not reactivate the deafferented regions of area 3b. Here, we determined how transections of the dorsal columns done within a few days after birth affect the developing somatosensory cortex. Dorsal columns were transected between the 3rd and 12th postnatal d...

摘要:The emerging new generation of small- scaled acoustic microrobots is poised to expedite the adoption of microrobotics in biomedical research. Recent designs of these microrobots have enabled intricate bioinspired motions, paving the way for their real- world applications. We present a multiorifice design of air- filled spherical microrobots that convert acoustic wave energy to efficient propulsion through a resonant encapsulated microbubble. These microrobots can swim boundary- free in three- ...

摘要:Chiral magnetic textures give rise to unconventional magnetotransport phenomena such as the topological Hall effect and nonreciprocal electronic transport. While the correspondence between topology or symmetry of chiral magnetic structures and such transport phenomena has been well established, a microscopic understanding based on the spin- dependent band structure in momentum space remains elusive. Here, we demonstrate how a chiral magnetic superstructure introduces an asymmetry in the electr...

摘要:Using administrative and survey data, we show that there has been a sea change in the contours of American imprisonment. At the end of the twentieth century, inequality in the prison admission rates of Black and White Americans was comparable to inequality in the prison admission rates of people with and without a college education. However, educational inequality is now much greater than racial inequality in prison admissions for all major crime types. Violent offenses have replaced drug offe...

摘要:Self-reports are used ubiquitously to probe people's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and inform medical decisions, enterprise operations, and government policy and legislation. Despite their pervasive use, self-report measures such as Likert scales have a profound problem: Standard analytic approaches do not control for the confounding effects of idiosyncratic response biases. Here, we present a model-based solution to this problem. Our model disentangles response bias from latent constructs...

摘要:In ephaptic coupling, physically adjacent neurons influence one another's activity via the electric fields they generate. To date, the molecular mechanisms that mediate and modulate ephaptic coupling's effects remain poorly understood. Here, we show that the hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide-gated (HCN) channel lateralizes the potentially mutual ephaptic inhibition between Drosophila gustatory receptor neurons (GRNs). While sweet-sensing GRNs (sGRNs) engage in ephaptic suppression ...
