Researchers at USTC solved the structure of CaSR-Gq complex, revealing asymmetric activation mechanism. The study shows that CaSR binds to Gq in a shallow pocket on its cytosolic side, unlike other GPCRs.
Researchers developed a novel method to model market regime dynamics using efficient frontiers. The approach outperforms benchmarks and provides interpretable results, allowing for better understanding of portfolio optimization.
A new multi-level three-dimensional quantum wavelet transform theory is proposed to implement the wavelet transform for quantum videos, offering exponential speed-up over classical counterparts. The proposed wavelet transforms have better compression performance for quantum videos than two-dimension quantum wavelet transforms.
A new theoretical framework evaluates the utilization efficiency of mobile power sources in power grids, considering various failure scenarios and structural resilience. The study emphasizes deploying mobile power sources to improve grid survivability and rapid recovery capabilities during disasters.
Scientists from UniSA, UoA and Yale University successfully scale up power in fibre lasers by three-to-nine times while maintaining beam quality. This breakthrough could have significant implications for remote sensing, gravitational wave detection and the defence industry.
A team of MSU scientists has identified a key protein in transporting antimicrobial proteins out of plant cells, which could lead to breakthroughs in crop productivity and yield. By understanding how plants defend themselves against pathogens, researchers can develop new strategies to improve crop resilience.
