  • Hetero-oligomeric TRP-like channels such as PKD1L3/PKD2L1 play crucial roles in a range of physiological and pathophysiological processes. Here, the authors present the cryo-EM structures of a minimal functional murine PKD1L3/PKD2L1 complex in the absence and presence of calcium and further supported through structure-guided mutagenic studies, they discuss the mechanism of calcium-induced channel activation.

  • Biochemical and structural studies of the Fc immunoglobulin E receptor show that it exists as a homodimer on mast cell membranes, but dissociates upon IgE binding, exposing immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motifs that enable downstream effector activation.

  • Hyperbolic lattices in non-Euclidean space challenge conventional band theory due to the breakdown of Bloch’s theorem. The authors develop a reciprocal-space supercell method to determine non-Hermitian spectra under periodic and open boundaries, revealing higher-dimensional skin effects and topological transitions enabled by non-Abelian translations.

  • Tuning electrocatalytic reduction of carbon monoxide to achieve valuable ethanol product with high performance is interesting yet challenging. Here, the authors design a hydrophobic Cu/Cu2O sheet catalyst showing a FE of 68.8% and partial current density of 111 mA cm−2 for CO reduction to ethanol.

  • A recent publication in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences describes a fluid-based building interface to reduce energy use for heating, cooling and lighting by selectively tuning light absorption and dispersion. Models showed that this system could reduce the annual energy consumption by up to 43% compared to existing technologies.

  • Land subsidence adds to the problem of climate-driven sea-level rise in coastal regions. A recent publication in Nature Sustainability has quantified the relative rates of local land subsidence of 48 major coastal cities worldwide. The study found that relative local land subsidence is more spatially variable than IPCC estimates previously suggested, with cities in Asia suffering the most. The findings could refine predictions of relative sea level rise and better guide actions for planning, designing and implementing protection strategies for coastal cities.
