Research on the path of green technology innovation driven by the Environmental Protection Tax Law: Based on data of heavy polluting enterprises

Plos.org 

by Wei Tao, Jian-ya Zhou, Ye-ling Zhao

Environmental Protection Tax Law (EPTL) is a compulsory environmental regulation measure adopted by China to deal with environmental problems. However, with the advancement of implementation, the EPTL produces a dissimilation effect and damages the realization of the Porter hypothesis effect. The study examines the dissimilation effect of green technology innovation regulated by the EPTL using sample data from heavy pollution firms in China. According to the empirical test results...

The LuxO-OpaR quorum-sensing cascade differentially controls Vibriophage VP882 lysis-lysogeny decision making in liquid and on surfaces

Quorum sensing (QS) is a process of cell-to-cell communication that bacteria use to synchronize collective behaviors. QS relies on the production, release, and group-wide detection of extracellular signaling molecules called autoinducers. Vibrios use two QS systems: the LuxO-OpaR circuit and the VqmA-VqmR circuit. Both QS circuits control group behaviors including biofilm formation and surface motility. The Vibrio parahaemolyticus temperate phage φVP882 encodes a VqmA homolog (called VqmAφ). Читать дальше...

Using deep learning to decipher the impact of telomerase promoter mutations on the dynamic metastatic morpholome

Melanoma showcases a complex interplay of genetic alterations and intra- and inter-cellular morphological changes during metastatic transformation. While pivotal, the role of specific mutations in dictating these changes still needs to be fully elucidated. Telomerase promoter mutations (TERTp mutations) significantly influence melanoma’s progression, invasiveness, and resistance to various emerging treatments, including chemical inhibitors...

Hyphae of the fungus Aspergillus nidulans demonstrate chemotropism to nutrients and pH

by Riho Yamamoto, Hinata Miki, Ayaka Itani, Norio Takeshita

The importance of fungi in ecological systems and pathogenicity hinges on their ability to search for nutrients, substrates, and hosts. Despite this, the question of whether fungal hyphae exhibit chemotropism toward them remains largely unresolved and requires close examination at the cellular level. Here, we designed a microfluidic device to assess hyphal chemotropism of Aspergillus nidulans in response to carbon and nitrogen sources, as well as pH. Читать дальше...

Does Jupiter protect Earth from asteroids and comets?

The Planetary Society 

Jupiter has often been thought to protect the inner Solar System from asteroids and comets, but new research has shown that the giant planet may actually increase the risk of an impact.
