Studying of RNA-protein interactions between a mutant form of glycyl-tRNA synthetase associated with neurodegenerative diseases and IRES type I

Posted by klaurent March 30, 2023April 10, 2023Rockefeller

Kavli Affiliate: Ekaterina V. Vinogradova | Authors: Ekaterina Vinogradova, Alisa Mikhaylina, Oleg Nikonov and Ekaterina Nikonova | Summary: Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (aaRS) are the main enzymes of protein biosynthesis. Human glycyl-tRNA synthetase, in addition to the main function of amino acid transfer to the corresponding tRNA molecules, is also involved in the initiation of IRES I […]

Designing transparent conductors using forbidden optical transitions

Posted by klaurent March 29, 2023Berkeley

Kavli Affiliate: Kristin A. Persson | First 5 Authors: Rachel Woods-Robinson, Yihuang Xiong, Jimmy-Xuan Shen, Nicholas Winner, Matthew K. Horton | Summary: Many semiconductors present weak or forbidden transitions at their fundamental band gaps, inducing a widened region of transparency. This occurs in high-performing n-type transparent conductors (TCs) such as Sn-doped In2O3 (ITO), however thus […]

Asymptotic gravitational-wave fluxes from a spinning test body on generic orbits around a Kerr black hole

Posted by klaurent March 29, 2023MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Scott A. Hughes | First 5 Authors: Viktor Skoupý, Georgios Lukes-Gerakopoulos, Lisa V. Drummond, Scott A. Hughes, | Summary: This work provides gravitational wave energy and angular momentum asymptotic fluxes from a spinning body moving on generic orbits in a Kerr spacetime up to linear in spin approximation. To achieve this, we have […]

PhaBOX: A web server for identifying and characterizing phage contigs in metagenomic data

Posted by klaurent March 28, 2023UCAS

Kavli Affiliate: Cheng Peng | First 5 Authors: Jiayu Shang, Cheng Peng, Herui Liao, Xubo Tang, Yanni Sun | Summary: Motivation: There is accumulating evidence showing the important roles of bacteriophages (phages) in regulating the structure and functions of the microbiome. However, lacking an easy-to-use and integrated phage analysis software hampers microbiome-related research from incorporating […]

A diffuse scattering model of ultracold neutrons on wavy surfaces

Posted by klaurent March 28, 2023Tokyo

Kavli Affiliate: T. Higuchi | First 5 Authors: S. Imajo, H. Akatsuka, K. Hatanaka, T. Higuchi, G. Ichikawa | Summary: Metal tubes plated with nickel-phosphorus are used in many fundamental physics experiments using ultracold neutrons (UCN) because of their ease of fabrication. These tubes are usually polished to a average roughness of 25-150 nm. However, […]

Constraint on Early Dark Energy from Isotropic Cosmic Birefringence

Posted by klaurent March 27, 2023Tokyo

Kavli Affiliate: Eiichiro Komatsu | First 5 Authors: Johannes R. Eskilt, Laura Herold, Eiichiro Komatsu, Kai Murai, Toshiya Namikawa | Summary: Polarization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) is sensitive to new physics violating parity symmetry, such as the presence of a pseudoscalar "axionlike" field. Such a field may be responsible for early dark energy […]

Three Saturn-mass planets transiting F-type stars revealed with TESS and HARPS

Posted by klaurent March 27, 2023MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Gabor Furesz | Summary:While the sample of confirmed exoplanets continues to increase, the population of transiting exoplanets around early-type stars is still limited. These planets allow us to investigate the planet properties and formation pathways over a wide range of stellar masses and study the impact of high irradiation on hot Jupiters orbiting […]
