Morphogenesis is dependent on the orchestration of multiple developmental processes to generate mature functional organs. However, the signalling pathways that coordinate morphogenesis and the mechanisms that translate these signals into tissue shape changes are not well understood. Here, we demonstrate that changes i…

We present a capacitor-type device that can generate strong electrostatic field in condensed phase. The device comprises an ice film grown on a cold metal substrate in vacuum, and the film is charged by trapping Cs(+) ions on the ice surface with thermodynamic surface energy. Electric field within the charged film was…

A series of nanographene filled polystyrene (GPS) nanocomposites was prepared by in situ polymerization of styrene in the laboratory. The concentration of graphene was changed in the step of 0.25 wt% and a total of eight composites (including control) were prepared to obtain a threshold concentration of graphene. Thes…

Spinal cord injury results in tissue necrosis in and around the lesion site, commonly leading to the formation of a fluid-filled cyst. This pathological end point represents a physical gap that impedes axonal regeneration. To overcome the obstacle of the cavity, we have explored the extent to which axonal substrates c…

The Na1.1V3O7.9 nanobelts have been synthesized by a facile and scalable hydrothermal reaction with subsequent calcinations. The morphologies and the crystallinity of the nanobelts are largely determined by the calcination temperatures. Ultrathin nanobelts with a thickness around 20 nm can be obtained, and the TEM rev…

Background: A cysteine, a glutamic acid, and a lysine are the well known amidase catalytic residues. Results: Mutating the neighboring, structurally conserved Glu-142 inactivates the enzyme, but the active site cysteine still reacts with acrylamide via its double bond. Conclusion: Glu-142 positions the amide for produ…

Faceted polymer microcapsules are prepared from metal-organic framework (MOF) templates. The MOF templates are removable under mild aqueous conditions. The obtained microcapsules are stiffer than their spherical counterparts, reflecting the near-incompressibility of the facet edges, and indicating that the faceting mi…

Abstract The major objectives of this study are to identify the best activation procedure between commonly used procedures that can significantly reduce the conditioning duration and to understand the change in interfacial properties during conditioning. In order to do that, three on‐line activation procedures were em…

Since many years, the contribution of vacancies ($V$) and self-interstitials ($I$) to silicon (Si) self-diffusion is a matter of debate. Native defects and their interaction among themselves and with foreign atoms influence the processes taking place during device fabrication, starting with the growth of Si single cry…

Biogenesis of mitochondrial iron-sulfur (Fe/S) cluster proteins requires the interaction of multiple proteins with the highly conserved 14-kDa scaffold protein Isu, on which clusters are built prior to their transfer to recipient proteins. For example, the assembly process requires the cysteine desulfurase Nfs1, which…
