摘要:The hippocampus is functionally specialized along its longitudinal axis with intricate interactions with cortical systems, which is crucial for understanding development and cognition. Using a well- established connectopic mapping technique on two large resting- state functional MRI datasets, we systematically quantified topographic organization of the hippocampal functional connectivity (hippocampal gradient) and its cortical interaction in developing brains. We revealed hippocampal functiona...

摘要:Pleistocene Ice Ages display abrupt Dansgaard-Oeschger (DO) climate oscillations that provide prime examples of Earth System tipping points-abrupt transition that may result in irreversible change. Greenland ice cores provide key records of DO climate variability, but gas- calibrated estimates of the temperature change magnitudes have been limited to central and northwest Greenland. Here, we present ice- core delta 15 N-N records from south (Dye 3) and coastal east Greenland (Renland) to calib...

摘要:Body fossils set limits on feasible reconstructions of functional capacity and behavior in theropod dinosaurs, but do not document in- life behaviors. In contrast, trace fossils such as footprints preserve in- life behaviors that can potentially test and enhance existing reconstructions. Here, we demonstrate how theropod trackways can be used as indirect evidence of pre- avian aerial behavior, expanding the approaches available to study vertebrate flight origins. This involved exploring the be...

摘要:Interactions mediated by intrinsically disordered protein regions (IDRs) pose formidable challenges in structural characterization. IDRs are highly versatile, capable of adopting diverse structures and engagement modes. Motivated by recent strides in protein structure prediction, we embarked on exploring the extent to which AlphaFoldMultimer can faithfully reproduce the intricacies of interactions involving IDRs. To this end, we gathered multiple datasets covering the versatile spectrum of IDR...

摘要:To withstand complex microbial challenges, the mammalian gut largely depends on the secretion of diverse antimicrobial proteins. Type III interferons (IFN lambda s) are ordinarily considered inducible antiviral cytokines involved in intestinal immunity. Unlike other IFN lambda s, we found that newly identified IFN lambda 4 is an intestinal antibacterial protein. Large amounts of natural IFN lambda 4 are present in the secretory layer of the intestinal tracts of healthy piglets, which suggests ...

摘要:The eIF4F translation initiation complex plays a critical role in melanoma resistance to clinical BRAF and MEK inhibitors. In this study, we uncover a function of eIF4F in the negative regulation of the rat sarcoma (RAS)/rapidly accelerated fibrosarcoma (RAF)/mitogen- activated protein kinase kinase (MEK)/extracellular signal- regulated kinase (ERK) mitogen- activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway. We demonstrate that eIF4F is essential for controlling ERK signaling intensity in trea...

摘要:The collective patterns that emerge in schooling fish are often analyzed using models of self-propelled particles in unbounded domains. However, while schooling fish in both field and laboratory settings interact with domain boundaries, these effects are typically ignored. Here, we propose a model that incorporates geometric confinement, by accounting for both flow and wall interactions, into existing data driven behavioral rules. We show that new collective phases emerge where the school of f...

摘要:Guanine- rich DNA forms G- quadruplexes (G4s) that play a critical role in essential cellular processes. Previous studies have mostly focused on intramolecular G4s composed of four consecutive guanine tracts (G- tracts) from a single strand. However, this structural form has not been strictly confirmed in the genome of living eukaryotic cells. Here, we report the formation of hybrid G4s (hG4s), consisting of G- tracts from both DNA and RNA, in the genome of living yeast cells. Analysis of Okaz...

摘要:Transforming atmospheric water vapor into liquid form can be a way to supply water to arid regions for uses such as drinking water, thermal management, and hydrogen generation. Many current methods rely on solid sorbents that cycle between capture and release at slow rates. We envision a radically different approach where water is transformed and directly captured into a liquid salt solution that is suitable for subsequent distillation or other processing using existing methods. In contrast to...
