Ca2+ Release by IP3 Receptors Is Required to Orient the Mitotic Spindle.
The mitotic spindle distributes chromosomes evenly to daughter cells during mitosis. The orientation of the spindle, guided by internal and external cues, determines the axis of cell division and thereby contributes to tissue...

Strong Zero Modes from Geometric Chirality in Quasi-One-Dimensional Mott Insulators.
Strong zero modes provide a paradigm for quantum many-body systems to encode local degrees of freedom that remain coherent far from the ground state. Example systems include Z_{n} chiral quantum clock models with strong zero...

Jun 22, 2020
Despite extensive mapping of long noncoding RNAs in immune cells, their function in vivo remains poorly understood. In this study, we identify over 100 long noncoding RNAs that are differentially expressed within 24 h of Th1...
Entropic bonding of the type 1 pilus from experiment and simulation.
Fabiano Corsetti, Alvaro Alonso-Caballero, Simon Poly, Raul Perez-Jimenez, Emilio Artacho
Jun 15, 2020
The type 1 pilus is a bacterial filament consisting of a long coiled proteic chain of subunits joined together by non-covalent bonding between complementing β -strands. Its strength and structural stability are critical for its...
