Substrate-driven chemotactic assembly in an enzyme cascade

Enzymes that form a metabolic pathway in which the product of one enzyme is the substrate for the next have now been shown to associate through a process of sequential, directed chemotactic movement. The extent of enzyme migration is proportional to the exposure time to the substrate gradient.

High electrostrain in a lead-free piezoceramic from a chemopiezoelectric effect

The authors demonstrate a chemopiezoelectric effect in which the displacive migration of oxygen vacancies driven by an electric field induces a large strain in the surface layer of thin (K,Na)NbO₃ ceramics. They achieve an electrostrain of 1.9% under a field of −3 kV mm⁻¹, with thermal stability up to 200 °C.

Layer-by-layer anionic diffusion in two-dimensional halide perovskite vertical heterostructures

The realization of atomically flat vertical 2D perovskite heterojunctions offers a novel materials platform that reveals the mechanism of anionic diffusion in 2D perovskites.

Global spatially explicit yield gap time trends reveal regions at risk of future crop yield stagnation

The patterns of how yield gaps change can suggest likely future outcomes for crop growth. This study conducts a spatial and temporal analysis of yield gaps for ten major crops from 1975 to 2010 and identifies regions where crops are experiencing ‘ceiling pressure’, signalling opportunities to improve future food security.

High oxide-ion conductivity through the interstitial oxygen site in Ba₇Nb₄MoO₂₀-based hexagonal perovskite related oxides

Oxide-ion conductors are important in various applications for clean energy. Here, authors report high oxide-ion conductivity of hexagonal perovskite-related oxide Ba₇Nb_3.9Mo_1.1O_20.05, which is ascribed to the interstitialcy diffusion and low activation energy for oxide-ion conductivity.

Drivers of seedling establishment success in dryland restoration efforts

The seeding of native species is critical to the success of dryland restoration efforts. Here the authors evaluate success of seeding establishment at 174 sites on six continents, finding that some sites had nearly 100% of species successfully recruit, while 17% of sites had zero seedling success.

A test of ecophysiological theories on tropical forest functional traits along a VPD gradient

Testing ecophysiological theory using tree traits along a vapour pressure deficit (VPD) gradient shows, as predicted, that photosynthetic capacity is higher at higher VPD sites. Contrary to the predictions, potential water conductivity tends to increase with higher VPD.

An in vitro tumorigenesis model based on live-cell-generated oxygen and nutrient gradients

Gilmore et al. describe an in vitro tumorigenesis model that produces cell-generated gradients of oxygen and nutrients. Its 2D configuration simplifies live cell, immunofluorescent, and microscopic interrogation of cancer cell behaviour in differentially developed tumour microenvironment conditions, including co-culture systems.
