Graphene research so far has focused on electronic 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 rather than photonic
applications, in spite of its impressive optical properties 7 , 8 . These include its ability to …

Background Until now, polymyxin resistance has involved chromosomal mutations but has
never been reported via horizontal gene transfer. During a routine surveillance project on …

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs of ∼ 22 nucleotides that are involved in
negative regulation of mRNA at the post-transcriptional level. Previously, we developed …

The two-dimensional layer of molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2 ) has recently attracted much
interest due to its direct-gap property and potential applications in optoelectronics and energy …

A novel pH-sensitive hydrogel system composed of a water-soluble chitosan derivative (N,O-carboxymethyl
chitosan, NOCC) and alginate blended with genipin was developed for …

We have fabricated graphene nano-ribbon field-effect transistor devices and investigated their
electrical properties as a function of ribbon width. Our experiments show that the resistivity …

Graphene is considered to be a promising candidate for future nanoelectronics due to its
exceptional electronic properties. Unfortunately, the graphene field-effect transistors (FETs) …

Protein misfolding in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) leads to cell death through PERK-mediated
phosphorylation of eIF2α, although the mechanism is not understood. ChIP-seq and …

Accurate genome assembly is hampered by repetitive regions. Although long single molecule
sequencing reads are better able to resolve genomic repeats than short-read data, most …

Owing to its high carrier mobility and saturation velocity, graphene has attracted enormous
attention in recent years 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 . In particular, high-performance graphene transistors …
