Solvent-driven electron trapping and mass transport in reduced graphites to access perfect graphene.

abstract：:Human C-terminal binding protein (CtBP)-interacting protein (CtIP) is a central regulator to initiate DNA end resection and homologous recombination (HR). Several studies have shown that post-translational modifications control the activity or expression of CtIP. However, it remains unclear whether and how cells restr...
