Measurement of CP Asymmetries in B^{0}→K_{S}^{0}π^{0}γ Decays at Belle II.

We report measurements of time-dependent CP asymmetries in B^{0}→K_{S}^{0}π^{0}γ decays based on a data sample of (388±6)×10^{6}  BB[over ¯] events collected at the ϒ(4S) resonance with the Belle II detector. The Belle II experiment operates at the SuperKEKB asymmetric-energy e^{+}e^{-} collider. We measure decay-time distributions to determine CP -violating parameters S and C.

Structural insights into light-gating of potassium-selective channelrhodopsin.

Structural information on channelrhodopsins' mechanism of light-gated ion conductance is scarce, limiting its engineering as optogenetic tools. Here, we use single-particle cryo-electron microscopy of peptidisc-incorporated protein samples to determine the structures of the slow-cycling mutant C110A of kalium channelrhodopsin 1 from Hyphochytrium catenoides (HcKCR1) in the dark and upon laser flash excitation. Upon photoisomerization of the retinal chromophore, the retinylidene Schiff base NH-bond reorients from the extracellular to the cytoplasmic side.

Evidence of h_{b}(2P)→ϒ(1S)η Decay and Search for h_{b}(1P,2P)→ϒ(1S)π^{0} with the Belle Detector.

We report the first evidence for the h_{b}(2P)→ϒ(1S)η transition with a significance of 3.5 standard deviations. The decay branching fraction is measured to be B[h_{b}(2P)→ϒ(1S)η]=(7.

Fast and Simple Protocol for N-Glycome Analysis of Human Blood Plasma Proteome.

N-glycome analysis of individual proteins and tissues is crucial for fundamental and applied biomedical research and medical diagnosis and plays an important role in the evaluation of the quality of biopharmaceutical and biotechnological products. The interest in this research area continues to grow annually, thereby increasing the demand for the high-throughput profiling of human blood plasma N-glycome. In response to this need, we have developed an optimized, simple, and rapid protocol for the N-glycome profiling of human plasma proteins.
