Carnobacterium sp. strain CP1 was isolated from Antarctic sandy soil and predicted to be a novel species belonging to the genus Carnobacterium Herein, we report the complete genome sequence, which consists of a circular 2,605,518-bp chromosome and an 8,883-bp plasmid with G+C contents of 38.13% and 31.63%, respectively.

Marinobacter sp. CP1 was isolated from a self-regenerating and self-sustaining biocathode biofilm that can fix CO2 and generate electric current. We present the complete genome sequence of this strain, which consists of a circular 4.8-Mbp chromosome, to understand the mechanism of extracellular electron transfer in a microbial consortium.

Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (aaRSs) strictly discriminate their cognate amino acids. Some aaRSs accomplish this via proofreading and editing mechanisms. Mursinna and coworkers recently reported that substituting a highly conserved threonine (T252) with an alanine within the editing domain of Escherichia coli leucyl-tRNA synthetase (LeuRS) caused LeuRS to cleave its cognate aminoacylated leucine ...

The space of unordered configurations of distinct points in the plane is aspherical, with Artin’s braid group as its fundamental group. Remarkably enough, the space of ordered configurations of distinct points on the real projective line, modulo projective equivalence, has a natural compactification (as a space of equivalence classes of trees) which is also (by a theorem of Davis, Januszkiewicz...

For a punctured surface $S$, we characterize the representations of its fundamental group into $\mathrm{PSL}_2 (\mathbb{C})$ that arise as monodromy meromorphic projective structure on $S$ with poles order at most two and no apparent singularities. This proves analogue theorem Gallo-Kapovich-Marden concerning $\mathbb{C}\mathrm{P}^1$-structures closed surfaces, settles long-standing question ab...

Dually responsive diblock random copolymers poly(nPA0.8-co-DEAEMA0.2)-block-poly(nPA0.8-co-EA0.2) were made from N-n-propylacrylamide (nPA), 2-(diethylamino)ethyl methacrylate (DEAEMA) and N-ethylacrylamide (EA) via reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization. Copolymers of different block length ratios, poly(nPA28-co-DEAEMA7)-block-poly(nPA29-co-EA7) (P1) and poly(nP...
