Instanton Corrections To Twist Two Operators
We present the calculation of the leading instanton contribution to the scaling dimensions of twist-two operators with arbitrary spin and to their structure constants in the OPE of two half-BPS operators in $$ \mathcal{N}=4 $$ SYM. For spin-two operators we verify that, in agreement with $$ \mathcal{N}=4 $$ superconf...

Scentsitive nature: Green leaf volatile perception in plants and insects
Plant leaves can emit large amounts of volatiles into the air. When attacked by insects, the composition of these blends changes markedly. It is well known that these changes affect not only the behavior of insects interacting with the plant but also the metabolism of the plant itself as well as its nearby competitors....

ER stress transcription factor Xbp1 suppresses intestinal tumorigenesis and directs intestinal stem cells
Unresolved endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in the epithelium can provoke intestinal inflammation. Hypomorphic variants of ER stress response mediators, such as X-box- binding protein 1 (XBP1), confer genetic risk for inflammatory bowel disease. We report here that hypomorphic Xbp1 function instructs a multilayered re...

An siRNA screen for ATG protein depletion reveals the extent of the unconventional functions of the autophagy proteome in virus replication
Autophagy is a catabolic process regulated by the orchestrated action of the autophagy-related (ATG) proteins. Recent work indicates that some of the ATG proteins also have autophagy-independent roles. Using an unbiased siRNA screen approach, we explored the extent of these unconventional functions of ATG proteins. We ...

We show that a new gauge group with one new scalar leads to automatically stable Dark Matter candidates. We consider theories where the Higgs phase is dual to the confined phase: it is known that SU (2) gauge theories with a scalar doublet (like the Standard Model) obey this non-trivial feature.

Under this broad agenda, the project focuses on three different themes. The...

Left Handed Z And Z Fcnc Quark Couplings Facing New B S Mu Mu Data
In view of the recent improved data on B_{s,d}->mu^+ mu^- and B_d->K^*mu^+mu^- we revisit two simple NP scenarios in which new FCNC currents in b->s mu^+ mu^- transitions are mediated either entirely by a neutral heavy gauge boson Z' with purely LH complex couplings Delta_L^{qb}(Z') (q=d,s) and couplings to muons Delta...

Murgocil is a highly bioactive staphylococcal-specific inhibitor of the peptidoglycan glycosyltransferase enzyme MurG
Modern medicine is founded on the discovery of penicillin and subsequent small molecules that inhibit bacterial peptidoglycan (PG) and cell wall synthesis. However, the discovery of new chemically and mechanistically distinct classes of PG inhibitors has become exceedingly rare, prompting speculation that intracellular...

Modelling the control of Aedes albopictus mosquitoes based on sterile males release techniques in a tropical environment
The Sterile Insect Technique (SIT), used to control insect populations, consists of releasing males sterilized by ionizing radiations. Wild females that mate with these males can no longer produce viable offspring, which may drives the population decline. Although this method has proved its efficiency, its effect may b...

We demonstrate one-dimensional sub-Doppler laser cooling of a beam of YbF molecules to 100 μK. This is a key step towards a measurement of the electron's electric dipole moment using ultracold molecules. We compare the effectiveness of magnetically assisted and polarization-gradient sub-Doppler cooling mechanisms. We m...

Crowding Is Reduced By Onset Transients In The Target Object But Not In The Flankers
In peripheral vision, objects that are visible in isolation become difficult to identify in clutter. This crowding effect is typically strong when objects are similar in a given dimension (e. g. , color) and weak when they differ. Here we examine the selectivity of crowding for temporal differences-namely, the transien...

NgR1: A Tunable Sensor Regulating Memory Formation, Synaptic, and Dendritic Plasticity
Nogo receptor 1 (NgR1) is expressed in forebrain neurons and mediates nerve growth inhibition in response to Nogo and other ligands. Neuronal activity downregulates NgR1 and the inability to downregulate NgR1 impairs long-term memory. We investigated behavior in a serial behavioral paradigm in mice that overexpress or ...

Implications of tissue stiffness in growth contrtissue stiffness and its implications in different growth rates of regenerating limbs amputated at different levels in salamanders (ambystoma mexicanum)

This observation suggests that cell proliferation or cell size could be adjusted with the p...
