The Natural Product Corramycin Acts as a DNA Gyrase Poison and Overcomes Fluoroquinolone Resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Corramycin, a myxobacterial natural product antibiotic, exhibits potent bactericidal activity against multidrug‐resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The compound hijacks bacterial transporters such as BacA and OppABCD to enter the cell and inhibits DNA synthesis through a previously unrecognized mode of DNA gyrase poisoning, locking the enzyme in an ...

Merchants of Pherae. The role of maritime trade in relations between the Thessalian tyrants and Athens in the 4th century B.C.

Klio, 2021
According to Plutarch, the Athenians honoured Alexander of Pherae with a bronze statute. It is difficult to explain such a high award with the ephemeral political cooperation between Pherae and Athens.

Additive Manufacturing of High‐Performance Polymers for Extreme Environments

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Additive manufacturing of high‐performance polymers for extreme environments is critically reviewed through an integrated chemistry‐processing‐structure‐property‐qualification framework. The review compares fused filament fabrication, selective laser sintering, and direct ink writing, linking rheology and thermal history to crystallization, defect ...

Passive Metasurface Tweezers for Multi‐Scale Orbital Transport and Trapping on Elastic Plates

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Passive labyrinthine phase encoding converts single‐channel excitation into localized flexural‐wave vortices with programmable orbital angular momentum. The resulting vortex fields enable cross‐scale particle manipulation, including orbital transport, central confinement, and rotational actuation.

Nonlinear Ion‐Specific Control of Underwater Adhesion by Bottlebrush Polymer Interfaces

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The efficiency of underwater adhesion is modulated by ion‐specific effects. Strongly hydrated Na+ remains separated from the mica surface by its hydration shell, preserving access to binding sites, whereas weakly hydrated K+ can partially dehydrate and occupy ditrigonal cavities.

Stretchable h‐BN/TPU Fibers for Passive‐Active Dual‐Mode Thermal Management and Wearable Haptic Interfaces

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Optimized 30 wt.% h‐BN/TPU fibers create a thermal conductivity of 2.08 W·m−1·K−1 while retaining mechanical compliance (422% elongation at break). Woven fabrics reduce surface temperature by 5.7°C under simulated solar irradiation. Glove integration enables localized fingertip heating at 29.55°C·s−1 with a thermal relaxation time of approximately 20 s.

Interfacial Salt Redistribution Enables Rapid Atmospheric Water Harvesting in a Biomimetic Multi‐Layer Hygroscopic Membrane

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A biomimetic multi‐layer hygroscopic membrane redistributes salt toward an air‐accessible nanofiber interface, enabling rapid interfacial deliquescence while a brush‐like hydrogel promotes efficient liquid transport and storage. By decoupling vapor capture from bulk water storage, the membrane achieves fast sorption kinetics and enables rapid‐cycling ...

Hydrogen Production from Ammonia Electrochemical Cracking

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
NH3 electrochemical cracking (e‐cracking) is a complementary technique to centralized thermal cracking for releasing H2 from NH3. In this article, we review recent advances in catalyst development for these cracking techniques and conduct a techno‐economic analysis (TEA) to evaluate the economic feasibility of e‐cracking.
