High-Performance Li-Metal-Free Sulfur Battery Employing a Lithiated Anatase TiO2 Anode and a Freestanding Li2SCarbon Aerogel Cathode

, 2021
Lithium–sulfur (Li–S) batteries have emerged as promising alternatives to Li-ion batteries. The commercial feasibility of Li–S batteries is still in question due to the usage of a highly reactive Li-metal anode and complex electrochemistry of the sulfur ...

Functional comparison of EncB and EncC cargo proteins in iron storage within the Myxococcus xanthus encapsulin

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Encapsulins are protein nanocompartments that play an important role in iron storage. In the Myxococcus xanthus encapsulin system, two cargo proteins called EncB and EncC contribute to iron mineralization. Here, we show that EncB and EncC generate iron‐containing minerals with distinct chemical compositions, suggesting that the composition of stored ...

Li-rich layered Li1.2Mn0.54Ni0.13Co0.13O2 derived from transition metal carbonate with a micro-nanostructure as a cathode material for high-performance Li-ion batteries

, 2016
Compared to commercialized cathode materials, Li-rich layered oxide exhibits a superior mass energy density. However, owing to its low tap/press density, the advantage of its volume energy density is not as obvious as that of its mass energy density ...

Stable Lithium Metal Plating/Stripping in a Localized High-Concentration Cyclic Carbonate-Based Electrolyte

Electrochemistry, 2022
Li metal is the ultimate anode material for rechargeable Li batteries because of its high capacity and low electrochemical potential. However, Li metal anodes suffer from low Coulombic efficiency and poor cycling stability owing to the growth of Li ...

The Shewanella oneidensis Fic enzyme SoFic targets the switch‐I region of EF‐Tu for AMPylation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fic enzymes mediate diverse post‐translational modifications across all domains of life, including AMPylation. Prokaryotic EF‐Tu can be AMPylated and deAMPylated by the conserved Fic enzyme SoFic. Structural and biochemical approaches were used to characterize the effect of AMPylation on EF‐Tu, SoFic's enzymatic activities, and the enzyme‐target ...

Commercially Viable Hybrid Li-Ion/Metal Batteries with High Energy Density Realized by Symbiotic Anode and Prelithiated Cathode

Nano-Micro Letters, 2022
The energy density of commercial lithium (Li) ion batteries with graphite anode is reaching the limit. It is believed that directly utilizing Li metal as anode without a host could enhance the battery’s energy density to the maximum extent.

Smaller is better: nanobodies meet NMR

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nanobodies are single‐domain antigen‐binding fragments derived from camelid heavy chain antibodies. Their small size, high stability, and exceptional specificity make nanobodies uniquely useful probes for NMR studies of protein dynamics, transient conformational states, and protein–protein interactions.
