Mechanism and spectrum of inhibition of a 4'-cyano modified nucleotide analog against diverse RNA polymerases of prototypic respiratory RNA viruses

This study investigates how a 4'-cyano modified nucleotide analog inhibits RNA polymerases of respiratory viruses, showing varying efficiency across different viral species.

Oligosaccharide production and signaling correlate with delayed flowering in an Arabidopsis genotype grown and selected in high

This study compares metabolomic and transcriptomic changes in two Arabidopsis genotypes under elevated CO2, finding that SG delays flowering due to higher oligosaccharide production and altered carbohydrate metabolism.

A semi-empirical model of the aerodynamics of manoeuvring insect flight

The paper develops a blade element model for insect flight that incorporates 3D wing kinematics and empirically fits aerodynamic forces using free-flight data from hoverflies.

Motor output and control input in flapping flight: a compact model of the deforming wing kinematics of manoeuvring hoverflies

The paper analyzes wing kinematics of hoverflies using functional principal components analysis to identify control input variables in flapping flight.

Image-based consensus molecular subtype classification (imCMS) of colorectal cancer using deep learning

This paper develops imCMS, a deep learning method to classify colorectal cancer subtypes from histological images, showing improved accuracy over bioinformatic methods.
