A research group led by ZHANG Yu from the Center for Excellence in Molecular Plant Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has determined plant plastid-encoded RNA polymerase supercomplex in apo and transcription elongation state, which provides a structural basis for the mechanistic and functional study of transcription regulation in plant chloroplasts.
Researchers from the Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden investigated the variation and associations in stem xylem water transport, mechanical support, and storage functions between lianas and trees in three different ecosystems in southwest China.
Researchers led by Prof. JI Hongbin from the Center for Excellence in Molecular Cell Science, Shanghai Institute of Biochemistry and Cell Biology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the collaborators, reported that AST drives the resistance to KRAS inhibition in LKB1-mutant lung cancer, and KRT6A is a predicative biomarker of poor KRAS inhibitor response.
Qiaomei FU and E. Andrew Bennett, both of the Institute of Vertebrate Paleontology and Paleoanthropology, explored the contribution of paleogenomics to our understanding of the evolution of modern humans.
Researchers from the Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden sought to improve and optimize China's existing ESP research paradigm to accurately establish conservation and restoration priorities, with the intention of providing Chinese programs and demonstrations to contribute to the early realization of the goals in the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework.
Recently, Prof. ZHAN Yang's team at the Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences developed a novel neuromodulation strategy targeting microglia, which effectively clears amyloid beta, a pathological protein associated with Alzheimer's disease.
