摘要:Mesoamerican nephropathy (MeN) is a progressive kidney disease found on the Pacific coast of Central America primarily in young male agricultural workers without typical kidney disease risk factors. While it is generally accepted that environmental exposures contribute to MeN, we hypothesized that there was also an important genetic component. We performed a genome-wide association study comparing individuals with MeN versus individuals with normal kidney function. We found that Native America...

摘要:Multiple recent record- shattering weather events raise questions about the adequacy of climate models to effectively predict and prepare for unprecedented climate impacts on human life, infrastructure, and ecosystems. Here, we show that extreme heat in several regions globally is increasing significantly and faster in magnitude than what state- of- the- art climate models have predicted under present warming even after accounting for their regional summer background warming. Across all global...

摘要:Spinal motor neuron (MN) dysfunction is the cause of a number of clinically significant movement disorders. Despite the recent approval of gene therapeutics targeting these MN- related disorders, there are no viral delivery mechanisms that achieve MN- restricted transgene expression. In this study, chromatin accessibility profiling of genetically defined mouse MNs was used to identify candidate cis- regulatory elements (CREs) capable of driving MN- selective gene expression. Subsequent testing...

摘要:In response to the disruption of gas supplies from Russia following the invasion of Ukraine in 2022, European politicians and public utilities appealed to citizens and customers to conserve natural gas. Moreover, they strengthened economic incentives for gas conservation. In fact, a substantial amount of natural gas was saved during the winter of 2022/23. This raises the question to what extent this success is attributable to government and corporate means to foster energy conservation in the ...

摘要:Delineating a protein's essential and dispensable domains provides critical insight into how it carries out its function. Here, we developed a high- throughput method to synthesize and test the functionality of all possible in- frame and continuous deletions in a gene of interest, enabling rapid and unbiased determination of protein domain importance. Our approach generates precise deletions using a CRISPR library framework that is free from constraints of gRNA target site availability and eff...

摘要:Gustation is one of the five innate sensations for humans, distinguishing from vision, auditory, tactile, and olfaction, as which is a close and chemically induced sense. Despite the fact that a handful of gustation display technologies have been developed, the new technologies still pose significant challenges in miniaturization of the overall size for portability, enriching taste options within a limited working area, supporting natural human-device interaction, and achieving precisely contr...

摘要:Cell phase engineering can significantly impact protein synthesis and cell size, potentially enhancing the production of lipophilic products. This study investigated the impact of G1 phase extension on resource allocation, metabolic functions, and the unfolded protein response (UPR) in yeast, along with the potential for enhancing the production of lipophilic compounds. In brief, the regulation of the G1 phase was achieved by deleting CLN3 (G1 cyclin) in various yeast strains. This modificatio...

摘要:Poly (ADP- ribose) glycohydrolase (PARG) is a dePARylating enzyme which promotes DNA repair by removal of poly (ADP- ribose) (PAR) from PARylated proteins. Loss or inhibition of PARG results in replication stress and sensitizes cancer cells to DNA- damaging agents. PARG inhibitors are now undergoing clinical development for patients having tumors with homologous recombination deficiency (HRD), such as cancer patients with germline or somatic BRCA1/2- mutations. PARP inhibitors kill BRCA- defic...
