Abstract: Isolated polynucleotides and polypeptides, and recombinant DNA constructs are useful for conferring improved nitrogen stress tolerance or NUE and yield. Compositions (such as plants or seeds) comprise these recombinant DNA constructs; and methods utilize these recombinant DNA constructs. The recombinant DNA constructs comprise a polynucleotide operably linked to a promoter that is functional in a plant, wherein said polynucleotides encode nitrogen stress tolerance polypeptides.

Abstract: Isolated polynucleotides and polypeptides, and recombinant DNA constructs are useful for conferring improved drought tolerance and yield. Compositions (such as plants or seeds) comprise these recombinant DNA constructs; and methods utilize these recombinant DNA constructs. The recombinant DNA constructs comprise a polynucleotide operably linked to a promoter that is functional in a plant, wherein said polynucleotides encode drought tolerance polypeptides.

Abstract: A staggered and crossed heat storage adsorption bed and a seawater desalination waste heat storage system are provided, which relate to the field of seawater desalination and the technical field of thermochemical adsorption heat storage. The adsorption bed includes a bed body, wherein an adsorption cavity is arranged in the bed body; two sides of the adsorption cavity are respectively communicated with an inlet cavity and an outlet cavity; the adsorption cavity includes a vacuum heat insulation layer arranged at an outermost side; the vacuum heat insulation layer is embedded with an adsorption box fixing layer; a corner end adsorption box, a central adsorption box and a side adsorption box are staggered and crossed arranged in an inner cavity of the vacuum heat insulation layer through the adsorption box fixing layer.

Abstract: Peptide constructs comprising a mitochondrial antiviral-signaling protein (MAVS) peptide and a cell penetration peptide are disclosed, which are useful for stimulating interferon production in vitro and in vivo. Lactate has been discovered to inhibit glycolysis-mediated retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I) like receptor signaling by directly binding to the MAVS transmembrane (TM) domain and preventing MAVS aggregation; peptide constructs according to the disclosure can prevent or reverse this inhibition to stimulate interferon production. Methods for stimulating interferon production in a cell are also described, as well as methods for the treatment of viral infections and cancer.

Abstract: A polypeptide represented by SEQ ID NO: 1 and a method for treatment of a tumor and another disease associated with abnormal cell proliferation are described. The method includes administering a pharmaceutically-effective amount of the polypeptide to a patient in need thereof.

Abstract: The invention relates to “a type of easy-to-use electronic calculator”, which electronic calculator is characterized in that in addition to the calculation functions of conventional electronic calculators, it is especially convenient in the input of data and instruction. It is a common panel configuration that the display screen is on top of conventional electronic calculators and the input keyboard is on the bottom, which is not so easy to use. According to the invention, buttons are arranged on the upper and right side of the display screen to facilitate the input, enabling the frequently input buttons and display screen to be within the visible scope making the calculator easier to use.
