Open AccessMolecular adaptations underlying high-frequency hearing in the brain of CF bats species
The majority of bat species have developed remarkable echolocation ability, especially for the laryngeally echolocating bats along with high-frequency hearing. Adaptive evolution has been widely detected for t...

Open AccessBlocking-cyclization technique for precise synthesis of cyclic polymers with regulated topology
Ring-closure and ring-expansion techniques are the two routes for extensive synthesis of cyclic polymers. Here, we report an alternative blocking-cyclization technique referred to as the third route to prepare...
