Implementation and Realistic Security of Unidimensional Modulation Continuous-Variable Quantum Key Distribution in Downstream Access Networks

Photonics
To address the demand for low-cost deployment in quantum key distribution (QKD) networks, this study explores the implementation of unidimensional (UD) modulation continuous-variable quantum key distribution (CV-QKD) protocols within downstream access ...

Continuous-variable tomography of solitary electrons

Nature Communications, 2019
Quantum tomographic techniques enable the complete characterisation of continuous variable quantum states. Here the authors demonstrate a broadband tomography protocol for single electrons that goes beyond the bandwidth restrictions of existing methods.

Interplay between circadian and other transcription factors—Implications for cycling transcriptome reprogramming

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This perspective highlights emerging insights into how the circadian transcription factor CLOCK:BMAL1 regulates chromatin architecture, cooperates with other transcription factors, and coordinates enhancer dynamics. We propose an updated framework for how circadian transcription factors operate within dynamic and multifactorial chromatin landscapes ...

Continuous Variable Quantum Secret Sharing with Fairness

Applied Sciences, 2019
The dishonest participants have many advantages to gain others’ shares by cheating in quantum secret sharing (QSS) protocols. However, the traditional methods such as identity authentication and message authentication can not resolve this problem ...

Disordered but rhythmic—the role of intrinsic protein disorder in eukaryotic circadian timing

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Unstructured domains known as intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) are present in nearly every part of the eukaryotic core circadian oscillator. IDRs enable many diverse inter‐ and intramolecular interactions that support clock function. IDR conformations are highly tunable by post‐translational modifications and environmental conditions, which ...

Time after time – circadian clocks through the lens of oscillator theory

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Oscillator theory bridges physics and circadian biology. Damped oscillators require external drivers, while limit cycles emerge from delayed feedback and nonlinearities. Coupling enables tissue‐level coherence, and entrainment aligns internal clocks with environmental cues.

High key rate continuous-variable quantum key distribution using telecom optical components

New Journal of Physics
Quantum key distribution (QKD) is one quantum technology that can provide secure encryption keys for data transmission. The secret key rate (SKR) is a core performance indicator in QKD, which directly determines the transmission rate of enciphered data ...

An upstream open reading frame regulates expression of the mitochondrial protein Slm35 and mitophagy flux

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals how the mitochondrial protein Slm35 is regulated in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The authors identify stress‐responsive DNA elements and two upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in the 5′ untranslated region of SLM35. One uORF restricts translation, and its mutation increases Slm35 protein levels and mitophagy.

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...
