eLife assessment This study describes a useful antibody-free method to map both G-quadruplexes and R-loops in vertebrate cells independently of the BG4 and S9.6 antibodies. It also reveals that the helicase Dhx9 can affect the self-renewal and differentiation capacities of mESCs, perhaps by regulating co-localized G4s and R-loops.

AbstractThe non-B DNA structures can act as dynamic functional genomic elements regulating gene expression. Among them, G4s and R-loops are two of the best studied. The interplay between R-loops and G4s are emerging in regulating DNA repair, replication and transcription. A comprehensive picture of native co-localized G4s and R-loops in living cells is currently lacking.

Both layered- and rocksalt-type Li-rich cathode materials are drawing great attention due to their enormous capacity, while the individual phases have their own drawbacks, such as great volume change for the layered phase and low electronic and ionic conductivities for the rocksalt phase. Previously, we have reported the layered/rocksalt intergrown cathodes with nearly zero-strain operation, while the use of precious elements hinders their industrial applications.

A zero-strain Na-deficient NASICON-type Na2.8Mn0.4V1.0Ti0.6(PO4)3 cathode for wide-temperature rechargeable Na-ion batteries Xing Shen, Yuefeng Su, Shunli He, Yali Li, Lifeng Xu, Ni Yang, Yanshun Liao, Meng Wang and Feng Wu Abstract Na superionic conductor (NASICON) typed cathode materials with high structural stability and fast Na+ diffusion have been considered as high-power candidates for the exploration of Na-ion batteries. However, the substitution of active elements with low cost and...
