Bacteria communicate with one another using chemical signal molecules. As in higher
organisms, the information supplied by these molecules is critical for synchronizing the activities …

Bacterial CRISPR-Cas systems utilize sequence-specific RNA-guided nucleases to defend
against bacteriophage infection. As a countermeasure, numerous phages are known that …

The recovery of an intact epithelium following lung injury is critical for restoration of lung
homeostasis. The initial processes following injury include an acute inflammatory response, …

Two chemical signaling systems, quorum sensing (QS) and 3′,5′-cyclic diguanylic acid (c-di-GMP),
reciprocally control biofilm formation in Vibrio cholerae. QS is the process by …

We present a new 3D map of interstellar dust reddening, covering three quarters of the sky (declinations
of δ ≳ −30) out to a distance of several kiloparsecs. The map is based on high-…

This paper presents the third data release of the Hyper Suprime-Cam Subaru Strategic
Program (HSC-SSP), a wide-field multi-band imaging survey with the Subaru 8.2 m telescope. …

The quorum-sensing bacterium Vibrio harveyi produces and responds to three autoinducers
(AIs), and this sensory information converges to control the expression of bioluminescence, …

We present a systematic search for changing-look quasars based on repeat photometry from
Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and Pan-STARRS1, along with repeat spectra from SDSS …

We present the discovery of three new Milky Way satellites from our search for compact stellar
overdensities in the photometric catalog of the Panoramic Survey Telescope and Rapid …

Binding of a growth factor (GF) to its specific receptor on the cell surface causes the initiation
of a signal transduction cascade which eventually results in mitosis. GF:receptor complexes …
