Nuclear Matrix (NuMat) is a biochemically defined entity that provides us with a snapshot of the features of the nuclear architecture. Here, we present a protocol to isolate and visualize NuMat in the intact embryo or tissues of and its applications. We remove the chromatin to reveal underlying nuclear architectural components in organismal context. This protocol couples the power of genetics with cell biological observation of the nuclear architecture. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Pathak et al. (2022), Sureka et al. (2018), and Pathak et al. (2013).

Pi-Stacking Geometry Directed Supramolecular Secondary Building Units Shaping Hydrogen-Bonded Frameworks for Intensive NH3 Adsorption.
Angew Chem Int Ed Engl

Exploiting supramolecular secondary building units (SSBUs) for developing porous crystalline materials represents an exciting breakthrough that extends the boundaries of reticular chemistry. However, shaping polynuclear clusters sustained by non-covalent interactions for the assembly of hydrogen-bonded frameworks remains a critical challenge. This study presents a novel strategy to stabilize SSBUs by tuning the π-stacking geometry of conjugated building blocks, facilitating the creation of hydrogen-bonded frameworks with tailored architectures for demanding gas separation.

The established consensus sequence for human 5' splice sites masks the presence of two major splice site classes defined by preferential base-pairing potentials with either U5 snRNA loop 1 or the U6 snRNA ACAGA box. The two 5' splice site classes are separable in genome sequences, sensitized by specific genotypes and associated with splicing complexity. The two classes reflect the commitment to 5' splice site usage occurring primarily during 5' splice site transfer to U6 snRNA.

The minor spliceosome catalyzes excision of U12-dependent introns from precursors of eukaryotic messenger RNAs (pre-mRNAs). This process is critical for many cellular functions, but the underlying molecular mechanisms remain elusive. Here, we report a cryoelectron microscopy (cryo-EM) reconstruction of the 13-subunit human U11 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein particle (snRNP) complex in apo and substrate-bound forms, revealing the architecture of the U11 small nuclear RNA (snRNA), five minor spliceosome-specific factors, and the mechanism of the U12-type 5' splice site (5'SS) recognition.

Van der Waals electrode integration is a promising strategy to create nearly perfect interfaces between metals and 2D materials, with advantages such as eliminating Fermi-level pinning and reducing contact resistance. However, the lack of a simple, generalizable pick-and-place transfer technology has greatly hampered the wide use of this technique. We demonstrate the pick-and-place transfer of prefabricated electrodes from reusable polished hydrogenated diamond substrates without the use of any sacrificial layers due to the inherent low-energy and dangling-bond-free nature of the hydrogenated diamond surface.

Background: Fumarate hydratase-deficient renal cell carcinoma (FHRCC) is an aggressive carcinoma that typically presents as advanced-stage disease. Prompt recognition of FHRCC is critical for appropriate clinical care and genetic counseling for patients and family members. However, diagnosing FHRCC from cytology specimens is challenging, with limited characterization and no reports describing prospectively identified cases.
