Cryogenic Infrared Spectroscopy Unmasks Gas‐Phase Charge Migration in Mucin‐Type O‐Glycans

Small, EarlyView.
Protons in a sugar rush: O‐glycans are vital biomolecules, challenging to analyze due to isomeric forms. Using ion mobility spectrometry, cryogenic IR spectroscopy, and ab initio calculations, isomeric O‐glycan cores can be distinguished. At cryogenic temperatures, multiple deprotomers were identified, which interconvert at ambient conditions via rapid

Linguistic Variation across Instructional Segments in International Teaching Assistants' Discourse: A Corpus‐Based Analysis

TESOL Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates internal linguistic variation in the instructional discourse of international teaching assistants (ITAs) by segmenting their mini‐lecture performances into four discourse types: introduction, lecture, conclusion, and audience interaction.

Two‐Dimensional Materials For Lateral Flow Assays: A Critical Review of Functional Roles and Translational Challenges

VIEW, EarlyView.
2D nanosheets, with large surface area, excellent optical/electrical properties, and high specificity, combine with lateral flow assay strips to enable rapid, readable detection, boosting the strips’ development and applications. Abstract Lateral flow assays (LFAs) are widely used for point‐of‐care diagnostics, but their detection capability remains ...

Structure of the Arabidopsis receptor kinase SRF6 ectodomain determined from crystals obtained using the LRR crystallization screen

Acta Crystallographica Section D, EarlyView.
A crystallization screen that has enabled the structural analysis of various extracellular domains of plant membrane receptor kinases is described together with the structure of the LRR domain of the receptor SRF6.Plant‐specific membrane receptor kinases with structurally diverse extracellular domains regulate key processes in plant growth, development,

Maltase 1 regulates DENV2 infection and life history in Aedes aegypti

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Our study employed CRISPR/Cas9 to generate a MAL1 knockout strain of Aedes aegypti, demonstrating that the absence of MAL1 significantly suppresses DENV2 replication in the midgut and impairs viral transmission. The mutation also altered life‐history (hatching/pupation/emerging rates and sex‐specific survival), identifying MAL1 as a novel target for ...

Comparison of Three Sympatric Desert Lizards: Digestive Tract Structure, Digestive Enzyme Activities, Gut Microbiota, and Metabolites

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We performed 16S rDNA sequencing and metabolite profiling for three sympatric lizard species—Teratoscincus roborowskii, Phrynocephalus axillaris, and Eremias roborowskii—and compared their goblet cell and enzyme activities in the digestive tract. Our study suggests that the dietary niche may promote divergence or convergence of microbiota across host ...

Gut Microbiota of Gray Snub‐Nosed Monkeys: Adaptation to Seasonal Variations Through Energy Compensation and Thermogenesis

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Based on metagenome‐assembled genomes (MAGs), the gut microbiota of the gray snub‐nosed monkeys recovered 1229 non‐redundant MAGs. The gut microbiota showed an enhanced capacity to produce energy substrates with increased conversion activity of these substrates during winter.

Metabolome Diversity Enhances Resistance of Intertidal Clams to Thermal Stress

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Meretrix species are widely distributed intertidal bivalves in China with significant ecological and economic importance, which are sensitive to thermal stress. Our results showed that thermal environments of clam habitats shaped metabolome diversity, which can enhance the resistance of intertidal clams to thermal stress.

Dendrimeric Antigens for Passive Mast Cell Activation in the Evaluation of Amoxicillin Allergy

Allergy, EarlyView.
DeAns with defined nanoscale structure reveal that conjugate size and determinant density govern IgE‐mediated effector‐cell activation in AX allergy. All DeAn generations bind to sIgE in inhibition immunoassay, but only larger DeAns trigger FcεRI‐dependent responses in mouse MC, huRBL‐2H3, and LUVA cells.

Determinants of Immunoglobulin‐G N‐Glycan Patterns in the Aging General Population

Allergy, EarlyView.
The effect of demographic and lifestyle factors on IgG N‐glycosylation, which determines IgG's inflammatory response, remains poorly characterized. Aging, higher BMI, female sex, smoking, and heavy alcohol consumption are determinants of IgG N‐glycome patterns, which are indicative of inflammation. Women exhibit a distinct change in IgG N‐glycosylation
