Membrane lipid composition modulates the organization of VDAC1, a mitochondrial gatekeeper

open access: yesCommunications Biology
VDACs, the most abundant proteins in the outer mitochondrial membrane (MOM), are crucial for mitochondrial physiology. VDAC regulate metabolite and ion exchange, modulate calcium homeostasis, and play roles in numerous cellular events such as apoptosis ...

Feasibility of a magma ocean dynamo on Mars

open access: yesProgress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2017
Crustal magnetization of rocks in regions of Mars surface testifies to an era of dynamo activity. I examine the possibility that the dynamo that operated then, in the first 400–600 Ma after Mars formed, was powered by a crystallizing subsurface magma ...

A Contrasting TEC Behavior Over the Low‐Latitude Post‐Midnight Sector During Recovery Phases of May and October 2024 Storms: Possible Role of PPEF, DDEF, and O/N2

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The present study reports on the variability of the post‐midnight ionosphere over the low‐latitude sector during the recovery phases of the May and October 2024 storms. Multi‐instrument observations, comprising global navigation satellite system total electron content (TEC), F‐layer peak height, electron density profiles, and column O/N2 ...

OsPIP2;1 impacts root hydraulic conductance and is a candidate gene for a drought avoidance QTL on rice chromosome 7

open access: yesPlant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 5, Page 1602-1613, August 2026.
In this study, we identified a rice plasma membrane intrinsic aquaporin (OsPIP2;1) as the candidate gene for a chromosome 7 locus driving drought avoidance, supported by established and novel physiological experiments measuring root hydraulic conductance in near isogenic and RNAi knockdown lines.

Optimization of the Magnetic Dynamo [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2012
In stars and planets, magnetic fields are believed to originate from the motion of electrically conducting fluids in their interior, through a process known as the dynamo mechanism. In this Letter, an optimization procedure is used to simultaneously address two fundamental questions of dynamo theory: "Which velocity field leads to the most magnetic ...

Light Element Exsolution in Fe‐Si‐C‐(H) System: A Mechanism for Powering Mercury's Early Core Dynamo

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 14, 28 July 2026.
Abstract Mercury is one of the few terrestrial planets in the solar system with a magnetic field, yet the energy source to power its core dynamo remains unclear to date. Si, C, and possibly H are the top candidate light elements for its liquid core. Here, we showed experimentally that Si, C, and H in Fe‐Si‐C and Fe‐Si‐C‐H liquids share a simultaneous ...

A Laboratory Model for Iron Snow in Planetary Cores

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
Solidification of the cores of small planets and moons is thought to occur in the “iron snow” regime, in which iron crystals form near the core‐mantle boundary and fall until re‐melting at greater depth. The resulting buoyancy flux may sustain convection

tBid‐Mediated Genetic Ablation of Connective Tissue Cells Reveals Their Key Regulatory Function During Limb Regeneration in Axolotls

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 41, 22 July 2026.
We establish a tBid‐mediated cell ablation system in axolotls, achieve rapid and efficient ablation of multiple cell types, including muscle stem cell, spinal cord cell, and connective tissue (CT) cells. We investigate the role of CT using tBid‐mediated CT ablation and identify its essential role for limb development and regeneration.
