Defect in hematopoiesis and embryonic lethality at midgestation of Vps13a/Vps13c double knockout mice

Kavli Affiliate: Pietro De Camilli | Authors: Peng Xu, Rubia Isler Mancuso, Marianna Leonzino, Caroline J Zeiss, Diane S Krause and Pietro De Camilli | Summary: VPS13 is the founding member of a family of proteins that mediate lipid transfer at intracellular membrane contact sites by a bridge-like mechanism. Mammalian genomes comprise 4 VPS13 genes […]

A High-Quality Composite Pati-Salam Axion

Kavli Affiliate: Hitoshi Murayama | First 5 Authors: Tony Gherghetta, Hitoshi Murayama, Pablo Quílez, , | Summary: We present a composite QCD axion model where the Peccei–Quinn (PQ) symmetry emerges as a high-quality, accidental symmetry. The axion potential is only modified by eight-fermion, dimension 12 operators, which if present at the Planck scale, allow for […]

DynamicDTA: Drug-Target Binding Affinity Prediction Using Dynamic Descriptors and Graph Representation

Kavli Affiliate: Dan Luo | First 5 Authors: Dan Luo, Jinyu Zhou, Le Xu, Sisi Yuan, Xuan Lin | Summary: Predicting drug-target binding affinity (DTA) is essential for identifying potential therapeutic candidates in drug discovery. However, most existing models rely heavily on static protein structures, often overlooking the dynamic nature of proteins, which is crucial […]

Dynamics of $E_6$ Chiral Gauge Theories

Kavli Affiliate: Hitoshi Murayama | First 5 Authors: Andrew Goh, Hitoshi Murayama, Gup Singh, Bethany Suter, Jason Wong | Summary: We present exact non-perturbative solutions to chiral gauge theories based on the $E_6$ gauge group and several matter fermions in the fundamental $bf{27}$-dimensional representation. They are obtained when supersymmetric versions are perturbed by small supersymmetry […]
