Proteins can be represented in different data forms, including sequence, structure, and surface, each of which has unique advantages and certain limitations. It is promising to fuse the complementary information among them. In this work, we propose a framework called ProteinF3S for enzyme function prediction that fuses the complementary information across protein sequence, structure, and surface.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study investigates the genetic basis of the peel stripe margin pattern in watermelons by crossing two distinct lines with different margin appearances, revealing a single recessive gene responsible for the clear pattern.
  • - Genetic mapping techniques identified a specific location on chromosome 6 that contains a MYB transcription factor gene, with two significant mutations linked to the clear stripe pattern.
  • - Further analysis of gene expression and transcriptomic data during key developmental stages suggests that numerous transcription factors and metabolic processes contribute to the differences in peel patterns between the two watermelon lines.

Designing cost-effective electrocatalysts for water decomposition is crucial for achieving environmental-friendly hydrogen production. A transition metal sulfide/hydroxide electrocatalyst (1T-MoS/NiS/LDH) with double heterogeneous interfaces was developed through a two-step hydrothermal assisted electrodeposition method. The presence of the two built-in electric fields not only accelerated the charge transfer at the interface, but also enhanced the adsorption of the reactants and intermediate groups, and therefore improved the reaction rate and overall catalytic performance.

To improve the high reversibility of lithium-air batteries, an air electrode needs to have excellent electrochemical performance and spatial structure. Ni3S2 nanoparticles are loaded onto an N,S-doped pearl chain tube (N,S-PCT) by a method called quasi-chemical vapor deposition (Q-CVD). Additionally, N and S are doped during the synthesis process, thereby forming an ideal pipe rack-like structure.
