On their own, these observations are consistent with other reports published during the last few years suggesting a potential link between mTORC1 and SREBP-1c–mediated lipid biosynthesis (9).

The theory of island biogeography has been the central tenet of conservation biology for several decades, a tenet in which continental landscapes are viewed islands of suitable habitat patches ...

Rapid pathogen detection is crucial for effective disease management, particularly in bloodstream infections. Current molecular diagnostics often require nucleic acid preamplification, adding time and ...

Efforts to anticipate and adapt to future climate can benefit from historical experiences. We examine agroclimatic conditions over the past 50 y fo ...

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), a peer reviewed journal of the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) - an authoritative source of high-impact, original research that broadly spans ...

Reading out the temperature-memory of polymers, which is their ability to remember the temperature where they were deformed recently, is thus far unavoidably linked to erasing this memory effect. Here ...

Soil warming has the potential to alter both soil and plant processes that affect carbon storage in forest ecosystems. We have quantified these effects in a large, long-term (7-y) soil-warming study ...

We present a systematic study of the Raman spectra of optical phonons in graphene monolayers under tunable uniaxial tensile stress. Both the G and ...

Membrane proteins are encoded by 20–35% of genes but represent <1% of known protein structures to date. Thus, improved methods for membrane-protein structure determination are of critical importance.
