Equivariant Local Reference Frames With Optimization for Robust Non-Rigid Point Cloud Correspondence.

Unsupervised non-rigid point cloud shape correspondence underpins a multitude of 3D vision tasks, yet itself is non-trivial given the exponential complexity stemming from inter-point degree-of-freedom, i.e., pose transformations.

Gcn5- and Bre1-mediated Set2 degradation promotes chronological aging of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Loss of transcription-coupled histone H3 lysine 36 trimethylation (H3K36me3) contributes to shorter lifespans in eukaryotes. However, the molecular mechanism of the decline of H3K36me3 during aging remains poorly understood. Here, we report that the degradation of the methyltransferase Set2 is the cause of decreased H3K36me3 levels during chronological aging in budding yeast.

Surface rainfall erosion resistance and freeze-thaw durability of bio-cemented and polymer-modified loess slopes.

Microbially induced calcite precipitation (MICP) has been shown to mitigate sand erosion; however, few studies have applied MICP on loess soils. In this study, polyacrylamide (PAM) was added to the cementation solution, and combined MICP-PAM treatment was applied to improve the surface erosion resistance of loess-slopes. The freeze-thaw (FT) durability of MICP-PAM treated loess slopes was also studied.

MRPL13 Promotes Tumor Cell Proliferation, Migration and EMT Process in Breast Cancer Through the PI3K-AKT-mTOR Pathway.

Purpose: Breast cancer (BC), with varying histopathology, biology and response to systemic treatment, is the second leading cause of cancer-related mortality. Previous studies have inferred that the expression of mitochondrial ribosomal proteins (MRPs) is possibly related to the occurrence/progression of BC. MRPL13 might be one of the potential MRP candidates that are involved in BC tumorigenesis, but its role in BC has rarely been reported.

Improvement of bio-cementation at low temperature based on Bacillus megaterium.

A low production rate for calcium carbonate with microbial solidification technology at low temperatures often restricts its application. For this reason, adding urea to the medium and the domestication of Bacillus megaterium at low temperature were proposed to produce more calcium carbonate based on an analysis of growth characteristics, urease activity, and the production rates for calcium carbonate under different conditions. Sand solidification tests were conducted to demonstrate improvements caused by the methods.

Acetylome Profiling Reveals Extensive Lysine Acetylation of the Fatty Acid Metabolism Pathway in the Diatom .

N-lysine acetylation represents a highly dynamic and reversibly regulated post-translational modification widespread in almost all organisms, and plays important roles for regulation of protein function in diverse metabolic pathways. However, little is known about the role of lysine acetylation in photosynthetic eukaryotic microalgae. We integrated proteomic approaches to comprehensively characterize the lysine acetylome in the model diatom In total, 2324 acetylation sites from 1220 acetylated proteins were identified, representing the largest data set of the lysine acetylome in plants to date.
