Live-cell imaging and functional dissection of Xist RNA reveal mechanisms of X chromosome inactivation and reactivation by Ha, Norbert How Ong, Lai, Lan-Tian, Chelliah, Rosi, Zhen, Yashu, Seet, Vanessa Pei Yi, Lai, Soak-Kuan, Li, Hoi-Yeung, Ludwig, Alexander, Sandin, Sara, Chen, Lingyi, Zhang, Li-Feng

“…We double-tagged Xist (inactivated X chromosome-specific transcript), a prototype long non-coding RNA pivotal for X chromosome inactivation (XCI), using the programmable RNA sequence binding domain of Pumilio protein, one tag for live-cell imaging and the other replacing A-repeat (a critical domain of Xist) to generate “ΔA mutant” and to tether effector proteins for dissecting Xist functionality. …”

Fine-scale genetic structure and natural selection signatures of southwestern Hans inferred from patterns of genome-wide allele, haplotype, and haplogroup lineages by Wang, Mengge, Yuan, Didi, Zou, Xing, Wang, Zheng, Yeh, Hui-Yuan, Liu, Jing, Wei, Lan-Hai, Wang, Chuan-Chao, Zhu, Bofeng, Liu, Chao, He, Guanglin

“…The evolutionary and admixture history of Han Chinese have been widely discussed via traditional autosomal and uniparental genetic markers [e.g., short tandem repeats, low-density single nucleotide polymorphisms). However, their fine-scale genetic landscapes (admixture scenarios and natural selection signatures) based on the high-density allele/haplotype sharing patterns have not been deeply characterized. …”

Thiophene-derived polymer dots for imaging endocytic compartments in live cells and broad-spectrum bacterial killing by Prasad, Kenath Priyanka, Than, Aung, Li, Nan, Alam SK, Mahasin, Duan, Hongwei, Pu, Kanyi, Zheng, Xinting, Chen, Peng

“…As a proof-of-concept demonstration, pTh-Pdots are herein employed to track the endocytic pathway in live cells. Furthermore, we show that these polymeric nanoparticles can serve as potent antibacterial agents by making use of their ability to disrupt bacterial membranes and high peroxidase mimicking activity.…”

A Bergsonian analysis of time in qualitative research: understanding lived experiences of street homeless people in Moscow by McDonough, Brian, Stephenson, Svetlana

“…Drawing upon interview data with street homeless people in Moscow, Russia, this article examines the ways in which time is contextualized and used by research participants to make sense of their everyday experiences and important events in their lives. There is a tendency to understand time by measuring it, rather than seeing it as something within which lived experience happens and qualitative research is carried out. …”

The rise and fall of Britain’s golden cohort: how the remarkable generation of 1925-1934 had their lives cut short by austerity by Hiam, L, Dorling, D

“…However, using the latest data from the Human Mortality Database, we show how the Golden Cohort’s luck changed in 2012 when their outstanding health record was reversed, cutting short most of their remarkable lives. This change coincides with the introduction of austerity in 2010, consistent with the evidence on the harms of austerity in Britain.…”
