抗原变异可使得多种致病微生物易于逃避宿主免疫应答。表达在感染红细胞表面的恶性疟原虫红细胞表面蛋白1（PfPMP1）与感染红细胞、内皮细胞、树突状细胞以及胎盘的单个或多个受体作用，在黏附及免疫逃避中起关键的作用。每个单倍体基因组var基因家族编码约60种成员，通过启动转录不同的var基因变异体为抗原变异提供了分子基础。read more

Genome-Wide RNAi Analysis of Growth and Viability in Drosophila Cells
Michael Boutros,Amy A. Kiger,Susan Armknecht,Susan Armknecht,Kim Kerr,Kim Kerr,Marc Hild,B. Koch,Stefan A. Haas,Renato Paro,Norbert Perrimon,Norbert Perrimon +11 more
TL;DR: A high-throughput RNA-interference screen of 19,470 double-stranded RNAs in cultured cells to characterize the function of nearly all predicted Drosophila genes in cell growth and viability found 438 dsRNAs that identified essential genes, among which 80% lacked mutant alleles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sexual selection in males and females.
TL;DR: It is shown that both intrasexual competition between females and male choice of mating partners are common, leading to strong sexual selection in females and, in extreme cases, to reversals in the usual pattern of sex differences in behavior and morphology.
Journal ArticleDOI
Calculation of the lattice constant of solids with semilocal functionals
TL;DR: In this article, the generalized gradient approximation (GGA) is used for the calculations of the geometry and electronic structure of solids, and the TPSS (meta-GGA approximation) function is proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pain regulation by non-neuronal cells and inflammation.
TL;DR: This work reviews how non-neuronal cells interact with nociceptive neurons by secreting neuroactive signaling molecules that modulate pain and discusses new therapeutic strategies to control neuroinflammation for the prevention and treatment of chronic pain.
Journal ArticleDOI
Heterogeneity in Oscillator Networks: Are Smaller Worlds Easier to Synchronize?
TL;DR: It is found that networks with a homogeneous distribution of connectivity are more synchronizable than heterogeneous ones, even though the average network distance is larger.

TL;DR: This work shows that graphene's electronic structure is captured in its Raman spectrum that clearly evolves with the number of layers, and allows unambiguous, high-throughput, nondestructive identification of graphene layers, which is critically lacking in this emerging research area.
Journal ArticleDOI
Finding and evaluating community structure in networks.
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the algorithms proposed are highly effective at discovering community structure in both computer-generated and real-world network data, and can be used to shed light on the sometimes dauntingly complex structure of networked systems.

A programmable dual-RNA-guided DNA endonuclease in adaptive bacterial immunity.

TL;DR: This study reveals a family of endonucleases that use dual-RNAs for site-specific DNA cleavage and highlights the potential to exploit the system for RNA-programmable genome editing.

TL;DR: The Minimum Information for Publication of Quantitative Real-Time PCR Experiments (MIQE) guidelines target the reliability of results to help ensure the integrity of the scientific literature, promote consistency between laboratories, and increase experimental transparency.

Understanding the Warburg Effect: The Metabolic Requirements of Cell Proliferation
TL;DR: It is proposed that the metabolism of cancer cells, and indeed all proliferating cells, is adapted to facilitate the uptake and incorporation of nutrients into the biomass needed to produce a new cell.
