    Ferritin: a new platform for vaccine design

    Ferritin   The structure of ferritin is conserved. Ferritin or recombinant ferritin of higher eukaryotes can be assembled by two subunits of light chain and heavy chain in different proportions. Usually, 24 subunits self-assemble into a hollow spherical nanostructure. . The spherical structure of human ferritin has an outer diameter of 12 nanometers and an inner diameter of 8 nanometers, and has 8 triplet symmetry axes and 6 quadruple symmetry axes on the surface. Divalent iron ions can enter the hollow cavity through surface channels, and are oxidized to ferric iron, which is finally stored inside ferritin in the form of ferrihydrite (5Fe2O3 9H2O). This biomineralization process mediated by ferritin can…

    Quantum Aperture: Atomic Radio Technology

      Aperture, that is, a radio receiving device. In classical radio science, aperture refers to the effective receiving area of ​​a radio receiving system, which is used to characterize its ability to receive radio waves. In the “quantum apertures” program proposed by the US Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, aperture is used to refer to a radio receiving device, and this use is continued in this article. Apertures have been widely used in wireless communication, remote sensing, and detection systems such as mobile phones, radars, and radio telescopes, and are one of the indispensable tools for human survival and development. Since the German physicist HR Hertz completed a series of experiments…

    In order to facilitate alien contact, scientists reveal the identity of the earth to the universe

      If someone gets lost in the wilderness, he has two choices: one is that he can search for traces of civilization; the other is to start a fire, or write “SOS” in huge letters on the ground to make it easy for others found him. To scientists interested in the question of whether there are intelligent aliens, it seems we can do the same.   For more than 70 years, astronomers in the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) program have been scanning for radio or light signals from other civilizations. Many scientists are convinced that there are more than 300 million potentially habitable planets in the Milky Way, many of which…

    Why do I see dots of light when I close my eyes?

      Even if there is no external light source to stimulate, when we close our eyes, we will see flickering lights, this phenomenon is called “phosphenes”, commonly known as “intraocular flashes”. Almost everyone has had this experience, which is the instantaneous light sensation generated by mechanical stimulation, electrical stimulation, etc. in the retina. In our eyeballs, retinal ganglion cells are responsible for receiving visual information from photoreceptor cells in the retina and transmitting it to the brain. Retinal ganglion cells cannot distinguish between stimuli, and rubbing the eye can “trick” them into “wake up” in a light-activated-like manner, sending the stimulus to the cerebral cortex. In addition, phosphenes can also occur…
