A newly discovered code within DNA—coined “spatial grammar”—holds a key to understanding how gene activity is encoded in the human genome.

This breakthrough finding, identified by researchers at Washington State University and the University of California, San Diego and published in Nature, revealed a long-postulated hidden spatial grammar embedded in DNA. The research could reshape scientists’ understanding of gene regulation and how genetic variations may influence gene expression in development or disease.

Transcription factors, the proteins that control which genes in one’s genome are turned on or off, play a crucial role in this code. Long thought of as either activators or repressors of gene activity, this research shows the function of transcription factors is far more complex.

Recently, two-dimensional (2D) materials have gained immense attention, as they are promising in various application fields, such as energy storage, thermal management, photodetectors, catalysis, field-effect transistors, and photovoltaic modules. These merits of 2D materials are attributed to their unique structure and properties. Chirality is an intrinsic property of a substance, which means the substance can not overlap with its mirror image. Significant progress has been made in chiral science, for chirality uniquely influences a chiral substance’s performance. With the rapid development of chiral science, it became unveiled that chirality not only exists in chiral organic molecules but can also be induced in 2D inorganic materials and 2D organic-inorganic hybrid materials by breaking the chiral symmetry within their framework to form 2D chiral materials. Compared with 2D materials that do not have chirality, these 2D inorganic chiral materials and 2D organic-inorganic hybrid chiral materials exhibit innovative performance due to chiral symmetry breaking. Nevertheless, at present, only a fraction of work is available which comprehensively sums up the progress of these promising 2D chiral materials. Thus, given their high potential, it is urgent to summarize these newly developed 2D chiral materials comprehensively. In the current study, to feature and highlight their major significance, the recent progress of 2D inorganic materials and 2D organic-inorganic hybrid materials from their chemical composition and categories, application potential associated with their unique properties, and present synthesis strategies to fabricate them along with discussion concerning the development challenges and their bright future were reviewed. This review is anticipated to be instructive and provide a high understanding of advanced functional 2D materials with chirality.

Dr. Vopson proposes that information has mass and is the fifth state of matter, expanding our current understanding of the universe’s basic building blocks.

Physicist Dr. Melvin Vopson from the University of Portsmouth has proposed an experiment to prove that information is the fifth state of matter, alongside solid, liquid, gas, and plasma. His theory suggests that information possesses mass and is a fundamental component of the universe, similar to DNA in living organisms. The experiment involves using particle-antiparticle collisions to detect and measure this information. If proven correct, this could radically change our understanding of physics, suggesting that information might even be the elusive dark matter that makes up nearly a third of the universe.

After reading the article, a Reddit user gained more than 1.7k upvotes with this comment: “Here’s explanation: When you collide an electron and a positron (an anti-electron) they are completely destroyed, releasing their mass equivalent energy as photons. The information equivalence theory predicts that you aren’t just destroying the mass but also internal information the particle has. If this is true, the annihilation would also release photons equal to the information-energy equivalence.” This article will amaze you by showing how information might be the key to unlocking the mysteries of the universe.
