The fine structures observed in the molecular harmonic spectrum provide crucial insights into the structural or multielectron dynamical effects induced by intense laser fields. In this study, we measure the high-order harmonic spectrum of aligned CO_(2) molecules contributed from short trajectories. Two distinct groups of minima are identified in the plateau region. Our findings indicate that the deeper-lying molecular orbitals and two-center interference play significant roles in molecular harmonic generation. The results pave the way for advancing the understanding of multielectron dynamics in polyatomic molecules under intense laser fields.展开更多

文摘CRISPR-based tran-scription regulators(CRISPR-TRs)have revolutionized the field of synthetic biol-ogy by enabling tar-geted activation or repression of any de-sired gene.However,the majority of exist-ing inducible CRISPR-TRs are limited by their dependence on specific sequences,which restricts their flex-ibility and controllability in genetic engineering applications.In this study,we proposed a novel strategy to construct sequence-independent inducible CRISPR-TRs,which is achieved by the design of stem loop 2 in the single guide RNA(sgRNA).Under this strategy,by utiliz-ing toehold-mediated strand displacement(TMSD)reactions between small endogenous molecules(miR-20a and TK1 mRNA)and bridge RNA(bRNA)to link bRNA with sgRNA,we achieved synergistic transcriptional activation of VP64 and p65-HSF1 in response to en-dogenous molecules.To enable response to exogenous molecules,we added response se-quences and bRNA sequences to the 5'end of sgRNA to block sgRNA activity,and achieved activation of sgRNA by shearing the response sequence,called sequential unlimited interlock-ing(SUI).Compared with conventional sequence-restricted interlocking(spacer-blocking hairpin(SBH)),the transcriptional activation ratio between response and non-response to the Cas6A protein using our approach was increased by 2.28-fold.Our work presents a modular and versatile framework for endogenous and exogenous molecule-responsive CRISPR-TRs in mammalian cells,without limitations imposed by sequence dependence.

文摘In the last few years,research on advanced ultrafast photonic devices has attracted great interest from laser physicists.As a semiconductor material with excellent nonlinear saturation absorption characteristics,Ga As has been used in solidstate and fiber lasers as a mode-locker.However,the pulse widths that have been reported in the searchable published literature are all long and the shortest is tens of picoseconds.Femtosecond pulse widths,desired for a variety of applications,have not yet been reported in Ga As-based pulsed lasers.In this work,we further explore the nonlinear characteristics of Ga As that has been magnetron sputtered onto the surface of a tapered fiber and its application in the generation of femtosecond lasing via effective dispersion optimization and nonlinearity management.With the enhanced interaction between evanescent waves and Ga As nanosheets,mode-locked soliton pulses as short as 830 fs are generated at repetition rates of 4.64 MHz.As far as we know,this is the first time that femtosecond-level pulses have been generated with a Ga As-based saturable absorber.In addition,soliton molecules,including in the dual-pulse state,are also realized under stronger pumping.This work demonstrates that Ga As-based photonic devices have good application prospects in effective polymorphous ultrashort pulsed laser generation.

文摘Soliton molecules are fascinating phenomena in ultrafast lasers which have potential for increasing the capacity of fiber optic communication.The investigation of reliable materials will be of great benefit to the generation of soliton molecules.Herein,an all-fiber laser cavity was built incorporating carbon nanotubes-based saturable absorber.Mode-locked pulses were obtained at 1565.0 nm with a 60 dB SNR and a 4.5 W peak power.Soliton molecules were subsequently observed after increasing the pump power and tuning polarization state in the same cavity,showing variable separation of pulses between 4.87 and 25.76 ps.Furthermore,these tunable soliton molecules were verified and investigated through numerical simulation,where the tuning of pump power and polarization state were simulated.These results demonstrate that soliton molecules are promising to be applied in optical communication,where carbon nanotube-based mode-locked fiber lasers serve as a reliable platform for the generation of these soliton molecules.

文摘The task of molecule generation guided by specific text descriptions has been proposed to generate molecules that match given text inputs.Mainstream methods typically use simplified molecular input line entry system(SMILES)to represent molecules and rely on diffusion models or autoregressive structures for modeling.However,the one-to-many mapping diversity when using SMILES to represent molecules causes existing methods to require complex model architectures and larger training datasets to improve performance,which affects the efficiency of model training and generation.In this paper,we propose a text-guided diverse-expression diffusion(TGDD)model for molecule generation.TGDD combines both SMILES and self-referencing embedded strings(SELFIES)into a novel diverse-expression molecular representation,enabling precise molecule mapping based on natural language.By leveraging this diverse-expression representation,TGDD simplifies the segmented diffusion generation process,achieving faster training and reduced memory consumption,while also exhibiting stronger alignment with natural language.TGDD outperforms both TGM-LDM and the autoregressive model MolT5-Base on most evaluation metrics.

文摘Biomolecular condensates,also known as membraneless organelles,play a crucial role in cellular organization by concentrating or sequestering biomolecules.Despite their importance,synthetically mimicking these organelles using non-peptidic small organic molecules has posed a significant challenge.The present study reports the discovery of D008,a self-assembling small molecule that sequesters a unique subset of RNA-binding proteins.Analysis and screening of a comprehensive collection of approximately 1 million compounds in the Chinese National Compound Library(Shanghai)identified 44 self-assembling small molecules in aqueous solutions.Subsequent screening of the focused library,coupled with proteome analysis,led to the discovery of D008 as a small organic molecule with the ability to condensate a specific subset of RNA-binding proteins.In vitro experiments demonstrated that the D008-induced sequestration of RNA-binding proteins impeded mRNA translation.D008 may offer a unique opportunity for studying the condensations of RNA-binding proteins and for developing an unprecedented class of small molecules that control gene expression.

文摘The recently demonstrated methods for cooling and trapping diatomic molecules offer new possibilities for precision searches in fundamental physical theories.Here,we propose to study the variations of the fine-structure constant(α=e^(2)/(hc)) and the proton-to-electron mass ratio(μ=m_(p)/m_(e)) with time by taking advantage of the nearly degenerate rovibrational levels in the electronic states of the magnesium fluoride(MgF) molecule.Specifically,due to the cancellation between the fine-structure splitting and the rovibrational intervals in the different MgF natural isotopes,a degeneracy occurs for A^(2)П_(3/2)(v'=0,J'=18.5,-) and A^(2)П_(1/2)(v "=0,J" =20.5,-).We find that using the nearly degenerate energy level of such states can be 104 times more sensitive than using a pure rotational transition to measure the variations of α and μ.To quantify the small gap between A^(2)П_(3/2)(v'=0,J'=18.5,-) and A^(2)П_(1/2)(v "=0,J" =20.5,-),special transitions of choice are feasible:X^(2)Σ_(1/2)~+(v=0,J=19.5,+) to A^(2)П_(3/2)(v'=0,J'=18.5,-) and X^(2)Σ_(1/2)~+(v=0.J=19.5,+)to A^(2)П_(1/2)(v "=0,J" =20.5,-).In addition,we estimate the frequency uncertainties caused by the narrow linewidth,Zeeman shift,Stark shift,Doppler broadening and blackbody radiation.

文摘Molecular high-order harmonic spectroscopy is a significant advancement in ultrafast science, enabling the measurement of multielectron dynamics with attosecond temporal resolution. The fine structures observed in the molecular harmonic spectrum provide crucial insights into the structural or multielectron dynamical effects induced by intense laser fields. In this study, we measure the high-order harmonic spectrum of aligned CO_(2) molecules contributed from short trajectories. Two distinct groups of minima are identified in the plateau region. Our findings indicate that the deeper-lying molecular orbitals and two-center interference play significant roles in molecular harmonic generation. The results pave the way for advancing the understanding of multielectron dynamics in polyatomic molecules under intense laser fields.

文摘Immunotherapy has transformed cancer treatment,marked by the approval of numerous antibody-based drugs.However,the limitations of antibodies in pharmacokinetics including long half-lives,limited oral bioavailability and immunogenicity,have prompted the pursuit of small molecule-based immunotherapy.Traditional drug discovery strategies,which focus on blocking protein activity through inhibitors,face persistent hurdles,such as reliance on accessible binding pockets,poor selectivity,and the emergence of drug resistance.Targeted protein degradation(TPD)technologies have emerged as powerful tools to address these limitations,offering significant therapeutic advantages over conventional inhibition strategies,particularly for historically "undruggable" targets.In recent years,small molecule-based protein degraders have rapidly advanced in cancer immunotherapy.In this review,we highlight recent progress in TPD-driven small-molecule drug discovery and summarize the application of these technologies in cancer immunotherapy,including degraders targeting PD-1/PD-L1,chemokine receptors,IDO1,AhR,and others.

文摘An in-depth understanding of the hydration mechanism of tricalcium silicate is an important basis for optimizing cement strength development.In this study,the adsorption of water molecules onto the M3-C3S(001)surface at different water coverage levels(θ=1/5,2/5,3/5,4/5,and 1)was investigated using first-principles calculations.The results demonstrate that the conclusions obtained for single water molecule adsorption cannot be fully applied to multiple water molecule adsorption.The total adsorption energies become more negative with increasing water coverage,while the average adsorption energy of each water molecule becomes more positive with increasing water coverage.The water–water interactions reduce the water–surface interactions and are responsible for the anticooperative adsorption of multiple water molecules onto M3-C_(3)S(001).The formation of Ca–OH(–Ca)bonds favors the detachment of Ca from co-valent oxygen,which reveals the significant role of dissociative adsorption.This work aims to extend the water adsorption study on M3-C3S(001)from single water molecule adsorption to multiple water molecule adsorption,providing more detailed insights into the initial water reaction on the C3S surface.

文摘Cancer is a serious global health issue,and exploring effective treatment methods is of great significance for cancer prevention and control.Carbon monoxide(CO),as an important gas signaling molecule in the life system,has been proven to have good anti-cancer effects.However,how to controllably,safely,and effectively deliver CO to the tumor site for clinical treatment remains a challenge.Herein,a new metal-free CO-releasing molecule COR-XAC was developed for controlling CO release and cancer therapy.COR-XAC is based on the hybrid of 3-hydroxyl flavone and oxanthracene fluorophores,showing visible light-controlled CO-releasing properties and near-infrared(NIR)ratiometric fluorescence changes at 690 and 760 nm.COR-XAC shows low cytotoxicity and can be successfully applied to release CO in cells and tumors,and the CO-releasing and delivery process could be monitored by its own NIR ratiometric fluorescence changes.More importantly,the anti-cancer performance of COR-XAC was evaluated in 4T1 tumor mice,and it was found that COR-XAC plus light illumination showed excellent tumor inhibition effect,which provided a promising new effective method for cancer treatment.

文摘Quantum algorithms offer more enhanced computational efficiency in comparison to their classical counterparts when solving specific tasks.In this study,we implement the quantum permutation algorithm utilizing a polar molecule within an external electric field.The selection of the molecular qutrit involves the utilization of field-dressed states generated through the pendular modes of SrO.Through the application of multi-target optimal control theory,we strategically design microwave pulses to execute logical operations,including Fourier transform,oracle U_(f)operation,and inverse Fourier transform within a three-level molecular qutrit structure.The observed high fidelity of our outcomes is intricately linked to the concept of the quantum speed limit,which quantifies the maximum speed of quantum state manipulation.Subsequently,we design the optimized pulse sequence to successfully simulate the quantum permutation algorithm on a single SrO molecule,achieving remarkable fidelity.Consequently,a quantum circuit comprising a single qutrit suffices to determine permutation parity with just a single function evaluation.Therefore,our results indicate that the optimal control theory can be well applied to the quantum computation of polar molecular systems.

文摘Traditional electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry(ESI-MS^(n))has been a powerful tool in diverse research areas,however,it faces great limitations in the study of protein-small molecule interactions.In this article,the state-of-the-art temperature-controlled electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry(TC-ESI-MS^(n))is applied to investigate interactions between ubiquitin and two flavonol molecules,respectively.The combination of collision-induced dissociation(CID)and MS solution-melting experiments facilitates the understanding of flavonol-protein interactions in a new dimension across varying temperature ranges.While structural changes of proteins disturbed by small molecules are unseen in ESI-MS^(n),TC-ESI-MS^(n)allows a simultaneous assessment of the stability of the complex in both gas and liquid phases under various temperature conditions,meanwhile investigating the impact on the protein’s structure and tracking changes in thermodynamic data,and the characteristics of structural intermediates.

文摘Soliton molecules(SMs),bounded and self-assembled of particle-like dissipative solitons,exist with versatile mutual interactions and manifest substantial potential in soliton communication and optical data storage.However,controllable manipulation of the bounded molecular patterns remains challenging,as reaching a specific operation regime in lasers generally involves adjusting multiple control parameters in connection with a wide range of accessible pulse dynamics.An evolutionary algorithm is implemented for intelligent control of SMs in a 2μm ultrafast fiber laser mode locked through nonlinear polarization rotation.Depending on the specifications of the merit function used for the optimization procedure,various SM operations are obtained,including spectra shape programming and controllable deterministic switching of doublet and triplet SMs operating in stationary or pulsation states with reconfigurable temporal separations,frequency locking of pulsation SMs,doublet and SM complexes with controllable pulsation ratio,etc.Digital encoding is further demonstrated in this platform by employing the self-assembled characteristics of SMs.Our work opens up an avenue for active SM control beyond conventional telecom bands and brings useful insights into nonlinear science and applications.

文摘Exploring multifunctional interfacial modifiers is an effective approach to addressing interface issues in perovskite solar cells(PSCs)and improving device performance and stability.While most interfacial modifiers focus on passivating defects at the interfaces,there has been limited investigation into the relationship between molecular design and interfacial charge dynamics.This work introduces resonance molecules with a push-pull effect for interfacial modification,allowing for synergistic regulation of passivation effects and charge dynamics.Specifically,FCz-PO,which includes an electron-withdrawing fluorine atom,exhibits superior passivation but poor molecular stacking and charge extraction.In contrast,MCz-PO,featuring an electron-donating methoxy group,provides effective passivation,wellordered molecular packing,and efficient charge extraction and transport.Consequently,PSCs using MCz-PO achieve high power conversion efficiency(PCE)of 24.74%and excellent operational stability.This study suggests that resonance structures can be an effective molecular design strategy for developing interfacial modifiers with both strong passivation capabilities and well-regulated charge dynamics.
