Primer‐Disk‐Enabled DNA Data Storage System with Index and Record‐Many‐Read‐Many Features

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A primer‐disk‐enabled DNA data storage system is introduced, which allows for append‐recording of DNA files on demand, retrieval via inkjet printed QR code, and multiple ramdom read of DNA information via solid‐phase PCR. The hiearchical system with index and record‐many‐read‐many features paves the way for the practical use of DNA data storage ...

STING COPII ER Export Trafficking and Signaling Primed by Phosphorylation Switches

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This schematic outlines STING trafficking and signaling via coat protein II (COPII)‐mediated endoplasmic reticulum (ER) export. Following cyclic GMP‐AMP (cGAMP) stimulation, TANK‐binding kinase 1 (TBK1) activates on COPII vesicles, partially dissociating into the cytosol to phosphorylate ER‐localized STING, creating pSGME/pFS COPII‐sorting motifs ...
