Haslam, Reicher, and Van Bavel (2019) convincingly argued that experimenters in the Stanford Prison Experiment (SPE) influenced prisoners via identity-based communication. However, Haslam et al. focused on direct mechanisms of identity communication. In our comment, we discuss a less direct-but potentially equally important-communication mechanism by which leaders in the SPE may have influenced followers: integrative complexity. This consideration of integrative complexity not only bolsters the basic point of Haslam et al.'s article also provides new avenues for understanding the mechanisms by which leader identity processes work in cases like the SPE.

Soil microbiota plays crucial roles in maintaining the health, productivity, and nutrient cycling of terrestrial ecosystems. The persistence and prevalence of heterocyclic compounds in soil pose significant risks to soil health. However, understanding the links between heterocyclic compounds and microbial responses remains challenging due to the complexity of microbial communities and their various chemical structures.

PACKMOL-GUI: An All-In-One VMD Interface for Efficient Molecular Packing.

J Chem Inf Model

January 2025

Sino-Finland Joint AI Laboratory for Child Health of Zhejiang Province, Hangzhou 310052, China.

PACKMOL is a widely utilized molecular modeling tool within the computational chemistry community. However, its tremendous advantages have been impeded by the longstanding lack of a robust open-source graphical user interface (GUI) that integrates parameter settings with the visualization of molecular and geometric constraints. To address this limitation, we have developed PACKMOL-GUI, a VMD plugin that leverages the dynamic extensibility of the Tcl/Tk toolkit.

Oscillation of the active form of the initiator protein DnaA (ATP-DnaA) allows for the timely regulation for chromosome replication. After initiation, DnaA-bound ATP is hydrolyzed, producing inactive ADP-DnaA. For the next round of initiation, ADP-DnaA interacts with the chromosomal locus DARS2 bearing binding sites for DnaA, a DNA-bending protein IHF, and a transcription activator Fis.

We aimed to characterise the medical and social complexities experienced by Inuit children and their families from Nunavut who were cared for at a general paediatrics clinic at an urban tertiary-level hospital located in Eastern Ontario. A retrospective chart review of this cohort was completed between 2016 and 2019. Two independent reviewers extracted data from charts.

Ionizing radiation induces various types of DNA damage, and the reparability and lethal effects of DNA damage differ depending on its spatial density. Elucidating the structure of radiation-induced clustered DNA damage and its repair processes will enhance our understanding of the lethal impact of ionizing radiation and advance progress toward precise therapeutics. Previously, we developed a method to directly visualize DNA damage using atomic force microscopy (AFM) and classified clustered DNA damage into simple base damage clusters (BDCs), complex BDCs and complex double-strand breaks (DSBs).
