Age-associated muscle atrophy is a debilitating condition associated with loss of muscle mass and function with age that contributes to limitation of mobility and locomotion.

Emission and absorption of light lie at the heart of light–matter interaction.

Rationally manipulating the in situ formed catalytically active surface of catalysts remains a tremendous challenge for a highly efficient water electrolysis.

A small dinoflagellate, ~13 μm in cell length, was isolated from Jinhae Bay, Korea. Light microscopy showed that it was similar to the kleptoplastidic dinoflagellate Gymnodinium gracilentum nom. inval. rDNA sequences were obtained and its anatomy and morphology described using light and scanning and transmission electr...

While the neuropathological characteristics of Niemann-Pick disease type C (NPC) result in a fatal diagnosis, the development of clinically available therapeutic agent remains a challenge. Here we propose graphene quantum dots (GQDs) as a potential candidate for the impaired functions in NPC in vivo. In addition to the...

Telomeres are part of a highly refined system for maintaining the stability of linear chromosomes.

L1 retrotransposons can pose a threat to genome integrity. The host has evolved to restrict L1 replication.

Here, we report that physically mixed H-Y zeolite effectively protects vanadium active sites by trapping ABS in micropores.

Intensified anthropogenic activities and high levels of energy consumption in cities have led to an increase in emissions of CO2 and air pollutants, impacting air quality and calling for better measures to monitor and reduce emissions. This study assesses the emission characteristics of cities in the Northern Hemispher...

Coupled transcription and translation processes in bacteria cause indiscriminate translation of intact and truncated messenger RNAs, inevitably generating nonfunctional polypeptides.

In most bacteria, efficient use of carbohydrates is primarily mediated by the phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP):carbohydrate phosphotransferase system (PTS), which concomitantly phosphorylates the substrates during import.

Nucleation in atomic crystallization remains poorly understood, despite advances in classical nucleation theory.
