Conformational Switching of Proteins on Material Surfaces Enabled by Peptide‐Oriented Adsorption

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Responsive biointerfaces could be achieved using conformationally responsive proteins; however, their interconversion can be lost upon surface adsorption. Herein, we demonstrate that the incorporation a Au binding peptide into calmodulin allows for binding control on Au wherein the protein retains conformational switching. This capability was confirmed

Gaussian Belief Propagation-Based Underwater Digital Communication Receiver Evaluated Using Extrinsic Information Transfer Charts

IEEE Access
A transmission scheme for underwater acoustic communication is proposed in which a subset of transmitted symbols is set to zero amplitude, while the remaining symbols jointly carry both data and pilot information.

The new hardware trigger processor at NA62 experiment: Status of the System and First Results [PDF]

EPJ Web of Conferences
The NA62 experiment is designed to study rare and ultra-rare kaon decays using a decay-in-flight technique. The Trigger and Data Acquisition (TDAQ) system of NA62 is multi-level, making it critically dependent on the performance of the inter-level ...

Dynamically Actuated Reconfigurable Topographical Surface Enables Active Control of Implant‐Associated Infections

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A dynamically actuated reconfigurable topographical surface (DARTS) integrates contact‐mediated bactericidal nanotopography with programmable mechanical actuation to actively disrupt bacterial biofilms. Dynamic surface reconfiguration enhances bacterial killing and suppresses implant‐associated infections in vivo, providing a new strategy for active ...

Gradient‐Conductivity Architecture Enables Synchronous Enhancement of Sensitivity and Detection Range in Multifunctional All‐Paper Sensors

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A gradient‐engineered all‐paper sensor is fabricated by integrating MXene and in situ grown AgNPs within hierarchical cellulose networks. The device breaks the sensitivity–detection range trade‐off through cascaded conductive pathways, enabling ultrahigh pressure sensitivity, humidity–pressure decoupled dual‐mode sensing, and outstanding EMI shielding,
