摘要:Phenomenological rules that govern the collective behavior of complex physical systems are powerful tools because they can make concrete predictions about their universality class based on generic considerations, such as symmetries, conservation laws, and dimensionality. While in most cases such considerations are manifestly ingrained in the constituents, novel phenomenology can emerge when composite units associated with emergent symmetries dominate the behavior of the system. We study a gene...

摘要:The cyclopentadiene (C5H6) molecule has emerged as a molecular building block of nonplanar polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and carbonaceous nanostructures such as corannulene (C20H10), nanobowls (C40H10), and fullerenes (C60) in deep space. However, the underlying elementary gas- phase processes synthesizing cyclopentadiene from acyclic hydrocarbon precursors have remained elusive. Here, by merging crossed molecular beam experiments with rate coefficient calculations and comprehensive ...

摘要:DNA repair systems are essential to maintain genome integrity and stability.Some obligate endosymbionts that experience long- term symbiosis with the insect hosts, however, have lost their key components for DNA repair. It is largely unexplored how the bacterial endosymbionts cope with the increased demand for mismatch repairs under heat stresses. Here, we showed that ibpA, a small heat shock protein encoded by Buchnera aphidicola, directly interacted with the cytoskeletal actin to prevent its...

摘要:The living cell creates a unique internal molecular environment that is challenging to characterize. By combining single- molecule displacement/diffusivity mapping (SMdM) with physiologically active extracts prepared from Xenopus laevis eggs, we sought to elucidate molecular properties of the cytoplasm. Quantification of the diffusion coefficients of 15 diverse proteins in extract showed that, compared to in water, negatively charged proteins diffused similar to 50% slower, while diffusion of ...

摘要:Arctic shorelines are vulnerable to climate change impacts as sea level rises, permafrost thaws, storms intensify, and sea ice thins. Seventy-five years of aerial and satellite observations have established coastal erosion as an increasing Arctic hazard. However, other hazards at play-for instance, the cumulative impact that sea-level rise and permafrost thaw subsidence will have on permafrost shorelines-have received less attention, preventing assessments of these processes' impacts compared ...

摘要:The dissolution of active atoms under operating potential will lead to a decline in their oxygen evolution reaction (OER) performance, thus preventing the current highly active catalysts from being practically applicable in industrial water electrolysis. Here, we propose a sequential leaching strategy to utilize the dynamic restructuring and enhance the chemical bond strength for highly active and stable OER. Modeling on nickel- iron sulfides (NiFe-S), we introduced and utilized foreign Mo dop...

摘要:Understanding the biophysical basis of protein aggregation is important in biology because of the potential link to several misfolding diseases. Although experiments have shown that protein aggregates adopt a variety of morphologies, the dynamics of their formation are less well characterized. Here, we introduce a minimal model to explore the dependence of the aggregation dynamics on the structural and sequence features of the monomers. Using simulations, we demonstrate that sequence complexit...
