Shock response in cage-like polynitrocubane high-energy-density materials: Competition between strain energy and structural symmetry by Qing-guan Song, Li Meng, Sheng-li Jiang, Lei Zhang, Ze-yao Mo

“…Ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulations were employed to simulate dynamic and kinetic responses at shock velocities ranging from 8 km·s−1 to 11 km·s−1, with validation provided by consistent Hugoniot curves that align with reported experimental data. Nitro groups at the carbon-based cage structure, recognized as explosion functional groups, were found to substantially increase the system's strain energy. …”

An alteration in the expression of cell wall structural proteins increases cell surface exposure of adhesins to promote virulence in Candida glabrata by Yaling Zhang, Shengwei Gong, Kang Xiong, Xiangtai Yu, Xinreng Mo, Chang Su, Yang Lu

“…Deletion of all six Srp1/Tip1-family genes that are upregulated during infection decreases the amount of cell wall-localized Epa1, probably reflecting the reduced adherence to epithelial cells and attenuated virulence in the sextuple mutant. These data suggest that alterations in the expression of Srp1/Tip1-family structural proteins trigger cell wall remodeling that increases the cell surface exposure of adhesins, such as Epa1, to promote virulence. …”
