Open AccessProtein degradation by human 20S proteasomes elucidates the interplay between peptide hydrolysis and splicing
If and how proteasomes catalyze not only peptide hydrolysis but also peptide splicing is an open question that has divided the scientific community. The debate has so far been based on immunopeptidomics, in vi...

Open AccessCreating amphiphilic porosity in two-dimensional covalent organic frameworks via steric-hindrance-mediated precision hydrophilic-hydrophobic microphase separation
Creating different pore environments within a covalent organic framework (COF) will lead to useful multicompartment structure and multiple functions, which however has been scarcely achieved. Herein we report ...

Open AccessOrigin of the multi-phasic quenching dynamics in the BLUF domains across the species
Blue light using flavin (BLUF) photoreceptors respond to light via one of nature’s smallest photo-switching domains. Upon photo-activation, the flavin cofactor in the BLUF domain exhibits multi-phasic dynamics...
