Summary: This study investigates the origin and evolution of the BAP module in plants, finding that it originated in land plants and expanded in seed plants through whole-genome duplication/triplication events. The study also reveals that the efficiency of signal transduction in the BAP module is influenced by the crosstalk among its components.

Summary: This paper proposes a depth super-resolution method called CODON, which leverages cross-domain attentive features to enhance the depth resolution. The method effectively exploits the depth and color features using recursive multi-scale convolutional module and cross-domain attention conciliation module. Experimental results demonstrate the superiority of CODON over other methods on popular benchmark datasets.

Summary: In this paper, a polar-coordinate-multi-signal-flux-observer (PCMFO) is proposed for sensorless control of permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSM). PCMFO is constructed using polar coordinates and utilizes the orthogonality relations between active fluxes on the alpha and beta axes. It enables simultaneous estimation of rotor position and flux, eliminating the need for a phase-locked loop. PCMFO consists of multiple observers to estimate dc bias, fundamental wave, and harmonics, eliminating interference from these signals on flux estimation. Experimental results demonstrate the superiority of this method.

Summary: This study reveals that an extracellular receptor sequence motif controls intracellular signaling through extracellular glycan interactions. Structural variations in the extracellular juxtamembrane domain of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) dictate selective activation of downstream signaling pathways. The presence or absence of a specific motif in the extracellular domain determines the activation of specific STAT proteins through interactions with glycosylated cell surface proteins and TYK2. The findings suggest a conserved mechanism that links a ubiquitous extracellular motif in RTKs with selective intracellular STAT signaling.

Summary: In hepatocellular carcinoma, the long noncoding RNA LINC01234 promotes cell proliferation, migration, and drug resistance by orchestrating aspartate metabolic reprogramming. LINC01234 downregulates the expression of argininosuccinate synthase 1 (ASS1), leading to activation of the mammalian target of rapamycin pathway and promoting HCC progression.

Summary: Advances in polymer science have expanded the applications of protein-polymer conjugates as biopharmaceuticals and biotechnology reagents. This study demonstrates the use of multisignal sedimentation velocity analytical ultracentrifugation to measure the polymer-to-protein ratio in antibody-drug conjugates of varying ratios and heterogeneity levels. The results show that multisignal sedimentation velocity can accurately provide crucial information on attributes like polymer-to-protein ratio.

Summary: This paper proposes an IncCond-MPPT scheme based on indirect control mode to ensure smooth electrical power response generated by photovoltaic panels in the case of quick changes in weather conditions and load variation. The proposed scheme utilizes two stages of control and achieves high MPP tracking accuracy and electrical power ratio.

Summary: A multisignal-output probe of peroxymonosulfate (PMS) was developed using a traditional chromogenic system. The probe enables real-time and convenient sensing of PMS in the concentration range of 0.98 to 130.29 μM. Its simplicity, convenience, high sensitivity, and stability improve reliability and practical adaptability, making it suitable for detecting residual PMS in pollutant water treated by advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) and PMS concentrations in actual water samples.

Summary: Studying the orbital evolution of planetesimals under the perturbation of a giant planet revealed that higher alignment and lower relative velocities occur with increasing distance from the planet and decreasing mass of the planetesimals, facilitating faster growth. This suggests that the presence of a giant planet in a disk can accelerate the growth of planetary cores in certain locations outside the planet's orbit.

Summary: This paper investigates a geometrically exact Cosserat beam model that takes into account industrial challenges. The model is represented by a framed curve in configuration space parametrized with a Lie group structure. The equations of motion are derived using Hamilton's principle and an augmented Lagrangian, and the beam model is fully discretized in space and time with piecewise interpolated configurations allowing for discontinuous Lagrange multipliers in time. Testing on benchmark problems shows no shear locking and errors decrease with spatial and temporal step sizes at second order.

Summary: Boundary domains play critical roles in plant development by regulating organ growth and morphogenesis through cell growth repression and modulation of cell wall properties. This study reveals the involvement of SPY and CUC2 in leaf boundary domain development, as they repress a common set of genes involved in cell wall loosening. Atomic force microscopy confirms that boundary domain cells have stiffer cell walls compared to marginal outgrowth.
