The growth rate of the atmospheric abundance of methane (CH 4) reached a record high of 15.4 ppb yr −1 between 2020 and 2022, but the mechanisms driving the accelerated CH 4 growth have so far been ...

Defect centers have been used to demonstrate a wide range of functionalities (1–5), including remote entanglement (), control of large nuclear spin clusters (), and quantum sensing of local ...

Bispecific T cell engagers (TcEs) that are able to simultaneously bind to epitopes on cancer cells and T cells are a versatile, highly potent, and economical immunotherapeutic tool ().TcEs are ...

Room-temperature superconductors could revolutionize modern technology by enabling lossless power transmission, powerful magnets, advanced medical imaging (MRI), and quantum computing.

In eukaryotes, genomic DNA is packaged into chromatin, which is the substrate for transcription, DNA replication, repair, and recombination. Within chromatin, nucleosomes contain two copies of each of ...

Cotyledon greening is a crucial process for seedlings to survive the dark-to-light transition during their soil emergence. While the complex strategies employed by etiolated seedlings to ensure ...

Among the characteristics shared by all extant living systems (1–3), their chemically controlled self-reproduction ranks perhaps as one of the most spectacular and exclusive.Under the control of their ...

The origin of evolutionary novelties is often underpinned by a complex set of changes. The genetic underpinnings comprise, for instance, gene or genome duplication, mutations, deletions, and ...

Astrocytes have a primary cell body (soma) with numerous branching processes that envelope nearby synapses ().This three-part structure is known as the tripartite synapse ().A single astrocyte can ...

Many real-world systems are made of multiple interacting parts, giving rise to complex dynamical systems. A paradigm for describing such systems relies on considering high-dimensional deterministic ...

A longstanding question in social psychology is how perceivers interpret and explain others’ behavior when there are multiple possible causes (1–4).For example, when someone accepts assistance ...

The latitudinal diversity gradient (LDG) is the most prominent biodiversity pattern observed globally across most organisms ().The mechanisms underlying LDG remain debated, with many hypotheses ...
