TL;DR: It is reported that the protein transduction domain of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 Tat protein (Tat peptide) greatly facilitates gene transfer via membrane destabilization and will become a useful component of synthetic delivery vehicles that promote gene transfer independently of the classical endocytic pathway.

TL;DR: A series of high-activity supported nickel phosphide hydroprocessing catalysts (Ni2P/SiO2) was synthesized by means of temperature-programmed reduction (TPR), and the effect of phosphorus content on hydroprocessing performance and catalyst structure was studied as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: It is suggested that bipolar porous organic electrode provides a new material platform for the development of a rechargeable energy storage technology and would significantly enhance cost-effectiveness, and reduce the dependency on limited natural resources.
Abstract: A huge demand for lithium batteries necessitates more affordable alternatives. Sakaushi et al. describe rechargeable sodium batteries containing organic electrodes with a porous-honeycomb structure that are comparable to lithium batteries and capable of over 7,000 cycles.

TL;DR: In this paper, different kinds of cyanine and merocyanine organic dyes having short anchoring groups as sensitizers on nanocrystalline TiO2 electrodes were investigated to promote the short-circuit photocurrent (Jsc) and the solar light-to-power conversion efficiency (ηsun).

TL;DR: Findings indicated that VND7 upregulates, directly and/or indirectly, many genes involved in a wide range of processes in xylem vessel differentiation, and that its target genes are partially different from those of NSTs.
Abstract: Summary
The Arabidopsis thaliana NAC domain transcription factor, VASCULAR-RELATED NAC-DOMAIN7 (VND7), acts as a key regulator of xylem vessel differentiation. In order to identify direct target genes of VND7, we performed global transcriptome analysis using Arabidopsis transgenic lines in which VND7 activity could be induced post-translationally. This analysis identified 63 putative direct target genes of VND7, which encode a broad range of proteins, such as transcription factors, IRREGULAR XYLEM proteins and proteolytic enzymes, known to be closely associated with xylem vessel formation. Recombinant VND7 protein binds to several promoter sequences present in candidate direct target genes: specifically, in the promoter of XYLEM CYSTEINE PEPTIDASE1, two distinct regions were demonstrated to be responsible for VND7 binding. We also found that expression of VND7 restores secondary cell wall formation in the fiber cells of inflorescence stems of nst1 nst3 double mutants, as well as expression of NAC SECONDARY WALL THICKENING PROMOTING FACTOR3 (NST3, however, the vessel-type secondary wall deposition was observed only as a result of VND7 expression. These findings indicated that VND7 upregulates, directly and/or indirectly, many genes involved in a wide range of processes in xylem vessel differentiation, and that its target genes are partially different from those of NSTs.
