Mass-selected nanoparticles of Pt_xY as model catalysts for oxygen electroreduction

The widespread use of fuel cells requires improved catalysts to reduce oxygen efficiently at the cathode. It is shown that model, well-characterized size-selected Pt_xY nanoparticles can be synthesized by the gas aggregation technique, and that they are highly active for this reaction.

Cohesin-mediated physical interactions between distal regulatory DNA elements are critical for transcriptional regulation. Here, the authors suggest that the vast majority of these loops on individual DNA molecules exist in a dynamic, extruding state.

How different cell types in primary motor cortex contribute to movement during learning and/or execution is not fully understood. Here authors show that corticothalamic neurons of the primary motor cortex are silent during movement and that this activity signature is critical for proficient movement generation.

Analysis of terrestrial and marine records of the deglaciation along with a climate model reveal two periods of rapid melting during the final retreat of this ice sheet, with rates of sea level rise of up to 1.3 cm per year.

Apical membrane antigen-1 (AMA1) is important for Plasmodium parasite invasion, but surface polymorphisms in P. falciparum AMA1 hamper vaccine and antibody development. Here the authors identify a humanised single-domain antibody molecule, an i-body, that binds to AMA1 of all Plasmodium parasites examined and inhibits parasite invasion.
