The Green Lean Amine Machine : Harvesting Electric Power While Capturing Carbon Dioxide from Breath

Kalkus, Trevor J. ; Guha, Anirvan ; Scholten, Philip B. V. ; Nagornii, Dimitrii ; Coskun, Ali ; Ianiro, Alessandro ; Mayer, Michael

In: Advanced Science, 2021, p. 2100995

As wearable technologies redefine the way people exchange information, receive entertainment, and monitor health, the development of sustainable power sources that capture energy from the user's everyday activities garners increasing interest. Electric fishes, such as the electric eel and the torpedo ray, provide inspiration for such a power source with their ability to generate massive...

Conserved functions of ether lipids and sphingolipids in the early secretory pathway

Jiménez-Rojo, Noemi ; Leonetti, Manuel D. ; Zoni, Valeria ; Colom, Adai ; Feng, Suihan ; Iyengar, Namrata R. ; Matile, Stefan ; Roux, Aurélien ; Vanni, Stefano ; Weissman, Jonathan S. ; Riezman, Howard

In: Current Biology, 2020, vol. 30, no. 19, p. 3775-3787.e7

Sphingolipids play important roles in physiology and cell biology, but a systematic examination of their functions is lacking. We performed a genome-wide CRISPRi screen in sphingolipid-depleted human cells and identified hypersensitive mutants in genes of membrane trafficking and lipid biosynthesis, including ether lipid synthesis. Systematic lipidomic analysis showed a coordinate regulation...

A simple reaction for dna sensing and chemical delivery

Janett, Elia ; Diep, Kim-Long ; Fromm, Katharina M. ; Bochet, Christian G.

In: ACS Sensors, 2020, vol. 5, no. 8, p. 2338–2343

Reactions templated by nucleic acids are currently at the heart of applications in biosensing and drug release. The number of chemical reactions selectively occurring only in the presence of the template, in aqueous solutions, and at room temperature and able to release a chemical moiety is still very limited. Here, we report the use of the p-nitrophenyl carbonate (NPC) as a new reactive...

Analysis method for detecting topological defect dark matter with a global magnetometer network

Masia-Roig, Hector ; A.Smiga, Joseph ; Budker, Dmitry ; Dumont, Vincent ; Gruji, Zoran ; Kim, Dongok ; Kimball, Derek F. Jackson ; Lebedev, Victor ; Monroy, Madeline ; Pustelny, Szymon ; Scholtes, Theo ; Segura, Perrin C. ; Semertzidi, Yannis K. ; Shin, Yun Chang ; Stalnaker, Jason E. ; Sulai, Ibrahim ; Weis, Antoine ; Wickenbrock, Arne

In: Physics of the Dark Universe, 2020, vol. 28, p. 100494

The Global Network of Optical Magnetometers for Exotic physics searches (GNOME) is a network of time-synchronized, geographically separated, optically pumped atomic magnetometers that is being used to search for correlated transient signals heralding exotic physics. GNOME is sensitive to exotic couplings of atomic spins to certain classes of dark matter candidates, such as axions. This work...

Rapid evolution of invasive traits facilitates the invasion of common ragweed, Ambrosia artemisiifolia

Sun, Yan ; Roderick, George K.

In: Journal of Ecology, 2019, vol. 107, no. 6, p. 2673–2687

Invasive alien plants, together with organisms introduced for biological control, are ideal study systems with which to address questions of whether, and how fast, organisms adapt to changing environments. We compared populations of common ragweed, Ambrosia artemisiifolia, from native (USA) and introduced (China) ranges at similar latitudes, together with herbivores introduced for biological...

Characterization of the global network of optical magnetometers to search for exotic physics (GNOME)

Afach, S. ; Budker, D. ; Camp, G. De ; Dumont, V. ; Grujić, Zoran Dragan ; Guo, H. ; Jackson Kimball, D. F. ; Kornack, T. W. ; Lebedev, Victor ; Li, W. ; Masia-Roig, H. ; Nix, S. ; Padniuk, M. ; Palm, C. A. ; Pankow, C. ; Penaflor, A. ; Peng, X. ; Pustelny, Simon ; Scholtes, Theo ; Smiga, J. A. ; Stalnaker, J. E. ; Weis, Antoine ; Wickenbrock, A. ; Wurm, D.

In: Physics of the Dark Universe, 2018, vol. 22, p. 162–180

The Global Network of Optical Magnetometers to search for Exotic physics (GNOME) is a network of geographically separated, time-synchronized, optically pumped atomic magnetometers that is being used to search for correlated transient signals heralding exotic physics. The GNOME is sensitive to nuclear- and electron-spin couplings to exotic fields from astrophysical sources such as compact...

Solid-state structure and anti­microbial and cytotoxicity studies of a cucurbit[6]uril-like Cu6L4 constructed from 3,5-bis­[(1H-tetra­zol-5-yl)meth­yl]-4H-1,2,4-triazol-4-amine

Vasylevskyi, Serhii ; Holzheu, Anja ; Fromm, Katharina M.

In: Acta Crystallographica Section C: Structural Chemistry, 2018, vol. 74, no. 11, p. 1413–1419

3,5-Bis[(1H-tetra­zol-5-yl)meth­yl]-4H-1,2,4-triazol-4-amine (H2L) associates under deprotonation with CuSO4 in aqueous medium to form a new waisted barrel-shaped M6L4 cluster, namely hexa­aqua­tetra­kis­{μ4-3,5-bis­[(1H-tetra­zol-5-yl)meth­yl]-4H-1,2,4- triazol-4-amine}-μ4-sulfato-hexa­copper(II) sulfate hydrate, [Cu6(SO4) (C6H6N12)4(H2O)6]SO4·nH2O (n = ∼23) (1).
