The growth rate of the atmospheric abundance of methane (CH 4) reached a record high of 15.4 ppb yr −1 between 2020 and 2022, but the mechanisms driving the accelerated CH 4 growth have so far been ...
Cities worldwide are experiencing increased extreme heat due to the synergistic effects of global warming and the urban heat island (UHI) effect (1, 2).According to Tuholske et al. (), global exposure ...
We demonstrate that substitutionally inert octahedral metal complexes, such as the iridium(III) carbene complex (1a), provide a useful source of potent inhibitors for unexplored oncogenic protein ...
Understanding how ecosystems respond to ubiquitous microplastic (MP) pollution is crucial for ensuring global food security. Here, we conduct a multiecosystem meta-analysis of 3,286 data points and ...
For millions of years, plants and herbivorous insects have engaged in an intense arms race. To evade or withstand attacks, plants have developed sophisticated immune systems, ranging from signal ...
This study changes our view of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) initiation and progression. Mutations promoting cerebral beta-amyloid (Aβ) deposition guarantee rare genetic forms of AD. Thus, the prevailing ...
Fano resonance is ubiquitous in nature, and the 2s2p resonance in helium atom is the most familiar one. By dressing a helium atom in an infrared laser field, its line shape can be modestly modified in ...
Emotions coordinate our behavior and physiological states during survival-salient events and pleasurable interactions. Even though we are often consciously aware of our current emotional state, such ...
Genes encoding EPSPS—the target of glyphosate—are present in all lineages of streptophytes. EPSPS belongs to the small family of enolpyruvyl transferase enzymes comprising two enzymes, EPSPS and ...
Pv11, a cell line derived from the egg mass of P. vanderplanki, is also capable of anhydrobiosis ().To successfully prepare Pv11 cells for anhydrobiosis, a preconditioning step involving incubation in ...
The human placenta is an extraembryonic organ that not only supports embryo development but also exerts a durable influence on the fitness of both the mother and fetus (1–3).The human placenta ...
Here, we describe the identification of an antibiotic class acting via LpxH, a clinically unexploited target in lipopolysaccharide synthesis. The lipopolysaccharide synthesis pathway is essential in ...
