Versatile CRISPR‐Cas Tools for Gene Regulation in Zebrafish via an Enhanced Q Binary System
This study introduces CRISPR‐Q, a transgenic CRISPR‐Cas system leveraging the QFvpr/QUAS binary expression platform in zebrafish. CRISPR‐Q overcomes previous challenges in achieving stable and efficient gene regulation. By enabling precise spatiotemporal control of transcript knockdown (CRISPR‐QKD) and gene activation (CRISPR‐Qa), it provides a ...

Temperature characteristics of Pockels electro-optic voltage sensor with double crystal compensation
Voltage sensors based on the Pockels electro-optic effect in LiNbO3 crystals have been applied to practical engineering measurements because of their passive nature, wide operating bands, and low transmission loss.

Helix Alignment, Chevrons, and Edge Dislocations in Twist‐Bend Ferroelectric Nematics
The recently discovered twist‐bend ferroelectric nematic (NTBF) is the new member of the multiferroic family, representing a fluid with an oblique helicoidal (heliconical) periodic structure of spontaneous electric polarization. The work presents a thorough exploration of the material properties of this phase, how the periodic modulation of ...

Control Strategies in Guanine Biocrystallization
Biological guanine crystals produce spectacular photonic phenomena in animals and hold great promise as new, sustainable optical materials. We review how organisms precisely control the structure, morphologies, and resulting optical properties of these crystals using a set of ingenious ‘design’ strategies, including control of pH, template‐directed ...

The measurement of temperature with using of birefringence crystals as detectors [PDF]
The carried out researches allowed to motivate and put into practice the polarizatoin-optical method of temperature measurement based on the phenomenon of temperature alteration in value of birefringence of the optically anisotropic crystals.

This study shows that amyloid fibrils form nematic condensates via liquid–liquid crystalline phase separation (LLCPS). With increasing pH, this transition shifts toward disordered condensates formed through liquid–liquid phase separation (LLPS), in which birefringence with lack of a coherent nematic field symmetry originates from enthalpic fibril ...

A deep comprehension of biomolecular phenomena at interfaces is significant with their fundamental and practical importance. Our experimental and theoretical investigations reveal that specific amino acids (glutamic acid and aspartic acid) exhibit an orientational coupling with liquid crystals, which can recognize and optically report the interfacial ...
