Angel wing: a class of alternative splicing regulators in animals
Nucleic Acids ResearchAbstract Alternative splicing (AS) regulates the diversity and level of the proteome. The specificity in AS is in turn regulated by RNA-binding proteins, but our understanding of how they act is far from complete. Here, we identify the Angel wing (Anw) protein, previously CG10948, as a novel AS regulator.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Na‐ion batteries ‐ Impact of doping on the oxygen redox: The sloping potential of NaMg0.1Ni0.4Mn0.5O2 above 4.0 V is caused by a new redox center (arising from the ‘O bound to Mg’), having a higher potential but being more irreversible compared to the ‘O bound to Ni’.

Resolution of a paradox: Hummingbird flight at high elevation does not come without a cost [PDF]
, 2004 Flight at high elevation is energetically demanding because of parallel reductions in air density and oxygen availability. The hovering flight of hummingbirds is one of the most energetically expensive forms of animal locomotion, but hummingbirds are ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.The ultrahard teeth of mollusks that feed on rocky substrates contain a wear‐resistant coating on their surfaces consisting of densely packed mesocrystalline magnetic nanoparticles within an organic matrix. These coatings display significant hardness and toughness through their highly controlled mesocrystalline architectures.
