A regulatory mutant on TRIM26 conferring the risk of nasopharyngeal carcinoma by inducing low immune response. [PDF]
The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) is most closely associated with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), but the complexity of its genome structure has proven challenging for the discovery of causal MHC loci or genes.

Actin assembly ruptures the nuclear envelope by prying the lamina away from nuclear pores and nuclear membranes in starfish oocytes. [PDF]
The nucleus of oocytes (germinal vesicle) is unusually large and its nuclear envelope (NE) is densely packed with nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) stockpiled for embryonic development. We showed that breakdown of this specialized NE is mediated by an Arp2/3-

Evolutionarily Conserved Sequence Features Regulate the Formation of the FG Network at the Center of the Nuclear Pore Complex. [PDF]
The nuclear pore complex (NPC) is the portal for bidirectional transportation of cargos between the nucleus and the cytoplasm. While most of the structural elements of the NPC, i.e.

Structure-function mapping of a heptameric module in the nuclear pore complex. [PDF]
The nuclear pore complex (NPC) is a multiprotein assembly that serves as the sole mediator of nucleocytoplasmic exchange in eukaryotic cells. In this paper, we use an integrative approach to determine the structure of an essential component of the yeast ...

Substantial gain enhancement for optical parametric amplification and oscillation in two-dimensional χ(2) nonlinear photonic crystals [PDF]
We have analyzed optical parametric interaction in a 2D NPC. While in general the nonlinear coefficient is small compared to a 1D NPC, we show that at numerous orientations a multitude of reciprocal vectors contribute additively to enhance the gain in ...

Tailoring polypropylene properties by package of internal/external donor in Ziegler Natta catalysts [PDF]
Insights have been developed into the influence of different structures, including bismethoxymethylfluorene (B) and 2,2-diisopropyl succinate (I), on both internal donor (ID) and external donor (ED) roles on the performance of MgCl2/ID/TiCl4.
