Chlorophyll is vital for plants, giving them their green color and playing indispensable crucial role in photosynthesis. Chlorophyll-deficient mutants serve as classic models for studying plant pigment metabolism and typically exhibit chlorotic or albino phenotypes, resulting in major impacts on photosynthetic efficiency and growth development of plants. Understanding the mechanisms behind chlorophyll deficiency not only advances basic plant biology but also supports crop breeding strategies aimed at improving yield, stress tolerance, and adaption.

The generated lung nodule data plays an indispensable role in the development of intelligent assisted diagnosis of lung cancer. Existing generative models, primarily based on Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) and Denoising Diffusion Probabilistic Models (DDPM), have demonstrated effectiveness but also come with certain limitations: GANs often produce artifacts and unnatural boundaries, and due to dataset limitations, they struggle with irregular nodules. While DDPMs are capable of generating a diverse range of nodules, their inherent randomness and lack of control limit their applicability in tasks such as segmentation.

Glial cells play an indispensable role in the nervous system, providing structural support to neurons and regulating their function and development. Glia support neural network formation and plasticity in axon guidance, synaptic pruning, and neurogenesis. Of note, studies have shown that glial cell dysfunction is closely related to the occurrence of neurological diseases.

Chromodomain helicase DNA binding protein 7 (CHD7), an ATP-dependent chromatin remodeler, plays versatile roles in neurodevelopment. However, the functional significance of its ATPase/nucleosome remodeling activity remains incompletely understood. Here, we generate genetically engineered mouse embryonic stem cell lines harboring either an inducible Chd7 knockout or an ATPase-deficient missense variant identified in individuals with CHD7-related disorders.
