Covariation of deep Southern Ocean oxygenation and atmospheric CO2 through the last ice age
No single mechanism can account for the full amplitude of past atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration variability over glacial–interglacial cycles. A build-up of carbon in the deep ocean has been shown to have occurred during the Last Glacial Maximum. However, the mechanisms responsible for the release of the deeply sequestered carbon to the atmosphere at deglaciation, and the relative importance of deep ocean sequestration...

Facebook today announced a new feature for its messaging platform that allows users to request an Uber from within Messenger. The idea is to make it more simple for Messenger users to hail an Uber ride without having to open the actual Uber app. The partnership is a...
Exploring the repeat protein universe through computational protein design
A central question in protein evolution is the extent to which naturally occurring proteins sample the space of folded structures accessible to the polypeptide chain. Repeat proteins composed of multiple tandem copies of a modular structure unit are widespread in nature and have critical roles in molecular recognition, signalling, and other essential biological processes. Naturally occurring repeat proteins have been re-engineered for molecular recognition...
