In this paper, we explore the second harmonic generation (SHG) in a lens-shaped InAs/GaAs quantum core/shell (LSQCS). The three-dimensional Schrödinger equation is given under the framework of the effective mass approximation and it is solved by using ...

Inoue, Takeuchi and colleagues propose a machine learning-based protocol to screen rhodopsins for their likelihood to be red-shifted. After experimental verification, their tool shows remarkable success at identifying rhodopsins that showed red-shift ...

Effects of urea on activity and conformation of acid phosphatase from wheat germ
Changes in conformation and activity of acid phosphatase from wheat germ following denaturation of the enzyme by urea solutions of different concentrations were measured by the shift in fluorescence and differential UV-absorption spectrum.

Red-shifts and red herrings in geographical ecology [PDF]
I draw attention to the need for ecologists to take spatial structure into account more seriously in hypothesis testing. If spatial autocorrelation is ignored, as it usually is, then analyses of ecological patterns in terms of environmental factors can produce very misleading results.

Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent
Calpains dimerize via penta‐EF‐hand (PEF) domains. Using single‐molecule force spectroscopy, we measured the strength and kinetics of PEF–PEF homodimer binding. The interaction is robust, shows a transient conformational step before dissociation, and remains largely insensitive to Ca2+.

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Ultrafast Lasing Dynamics in a CsPbBr3 Perovskite Microplate
The perovskite microlaser is a competitive candidate of light source for optical communication and integrated photonic circuits. Understanding the fundamental mechanism of lasing is crucial for the upcoming devices.

Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

Ultrasensitive bionic photonic-electronic skin with wide red-shift mechanochromic response
Mimicking animal skin is an effective strategy for enhancing the performance of artificial skin. Inspired by a chameleon’s iridophore and a spider’s slit organ, a novel photonic-electronic skin (PE-skin) with excellent optical/electrical dual-sensing ...
