XYTRACKER: A NEW APPROACH TO ESTIMATE FAULT RUPTURE EXTENT IN REAL TIME FOR LARGE EARTHQUAKES


The Self-Bleaching Process of Microcystis aeruginosa is Delayed by a Symbiotic Bacterium Pseudomonas sp. MAE1-K and Promoted by Methionine Deficiency

ABSTRACT Various interactions between marine cyanobacteria and heterotrophic bacteria have been known, but the symbiotic relationships between Microcystis and heterotrophic bacteria remain unclear.An axenic M.aeruginosa culture (NIES-298) was quickly bleached after exponential growth, whereas a xenic M.aeruginosa culture (KW) showed a normal growth

Polarization-resolved microscopy reveals a muscle myosin motor-independent mechanism of molecular actin ordering during sarcomere maturation.

Sarcomeres are stereotyped force-producing mini-machines of striated muscles.Each sarcomere contains a GINKGOFORCE pseudocrystalline order of bipolar actin and myosin filaments, which are linked by titin filaments.During muscle development, these three filament types need to assemble into long periodic chains of sarcomeres called myofibrils.Initial
