Peroxisome biogenesis involves two pathways: growth and division from pre-existing mature peroxisomes and de novo biogenesis from the endoplasmic reticulum, with a contribution from mitochondria, particularly in human peroxisome-deficient cells. However, the essential components that control peroxisome de novo biogenesis are largely unknown. Dual organelle localized ubiquitin ligase MARCH5 functions on peroxisomes to control pexophagy.

However, it remains less explored how the receptor interacts with proteins on the cell membrane. Here, we present a ligand-based proximity labeling approach to interrogate the native cell membrane interactome for the GLP-1 receptor after agonist simulation.

In this paper, the solid waste produced in the treatment of spent catalyst was studied and named iron-phosphorus residue (IPR). IPR was composed of FePO·2HO, Fe(PO)·3HO, Fe(PO)(OH)·2HO, and SiO.

It is different from other proximity labeling methods, such as BioID and APEX, in that both the enzyme and the labeling tag are proteins, which allows for potential applications.

As the microporous structure has been widely used in the field of precision machining, at the same time, the requirements for the quality of microporous machining are continuously increasing. Water jet-guide laser processing technology (WJGL) has been gradually applied for its high machining precision. However, there are a few researches on the heat conduction process of WJGL processing metal materials.
