| 1 | Hi-TOM: a platform for high-throughput tracking of mutations induced by CRISPR/Cas systems显示文摘The CRISPR/Cas system has been extensively applied to make precise genetic modifications in various organisms. Despite its importance and widespread use, large-scale mutation screening remains time-consuming, labour-intensive and costly. Here, we developed Hi-TOM(available at http://gffzz103f3ce5d9b14419hx9p6o6uffvbf66c0.ffgz.tsg.suse.edu.cn/hi-tom/), an online tool to track the mutations with precise percentage for multiple samples and multiple target sites. We also described a corresponding next-generation sequencing(NGS) library construction strategy by fixing the bridge sequences and barcoding primers. Analysis of the samples from rice, hexaploid wheat and human cells reveals that the Hi-TOM tool has high reliability and sensitivity in tracking various mutations, especially complex chimeric mutations frequently induced by genome editing. Hi-TOM does not require special design of barcode primers,cumbersome parameter configuration or additional data analysis. Thus, the streamlined NGS library construction and comprehensive result output make Hi-TOM particularly suitable for high-throughput identification of all types of mutations induced by CRISPR/Cas systems. | Qing Liu Chun Wang Xiaozhen Jiao Huawei Zhang Lili Song Yanxin Li Caixia Gao Kejian Wang | 2019 | Science China(Life Sciences)2019,62,1: | 37 |
| 2 | Nonlinear dynamic modeling of a helicopter planetary gear train for carrier plate crack fault diagnosis显示文摘Planetary gear train plays a significant role in a helicopter operation and its health is of great importance for the flight safety of the helicopter.This paper investigates the effects of a planet carrier plate crack on the dynamic characteristics of a planetary gear train,and thus finds an effective method to diagnose crack fault.A dynamic model is developed to analyze the torsional vibration of a planetary gear train with a cracked planet carrier plate.The model takes into consideration nonlinear factors such as the time-varying meshing stiffness,gear backlash and viscous damping.Investigation of the deformation of the cracked carrier plate under static stress is performed in order to simulate the dynamic effects of the planet carrier crack on the angular displacement of carrier posts.Validation shows good accuracy of the developed dynamic model in predicting dynamic characteristics of a planetary gear train.Fault features extracted from predictions of the model reveal the correspondence between vibration characteristic and the conditions(length and position)of a planet carrier crack clearly. | Fan Lei Wang Shaoping Wang Xingjian Han Feng Lyu Huawei | 2016 | Chinese Journal of Aeronautics2016,29,3: | 16 |
| 3 | Mercury oxidation and adsorption characteristics of potassium permanganate modified lignite semi-coke显示文摘The adsorption characteristics of virgin and potassium permanganate modified lignite semi-coke(SC)for gaseous Hg0 were investigated in an attempt to produce more effective and lower price adsorbents for the control of elemental mercury emission.Brunauer-EmmettTeller(BET)measurements,X-ray powder diffraction(XRD)and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS)were used to analyze the surface physical and chemical properties of SC,Mn-SC and Mn-H-SC before and after mercury adsorption.The results indicated that potassium permanganate modification had significant influence on the properties of semi-coke,such as the specific surface area,pore structure and surface chemical functional groups.The mercury adsorption efficiency of modified semi-coke was lower than that of SC at low temperature,but much higher at high temperature.Amorphous Mn7+,Mn6+ and Mn 4+ on the surface of Mn-SC and Mn-H-SC were the active sites for oxidation and adsorption of gaseous Hg0,which oxidized the elemental mercury into Hg2+ and captured it.Thermal treatment reduced the average oxidation degree of Mnx+ on the surface of Mn-SC from 3.80 to 3.46.However,due to the formation of amorphous MnOx,the surface oxidation active sites for gaseous Hg0 increased,which gave Mn-H-SC higher mercury adsorption efficiency than that of Mn-SC at high temperature. | Huawei Zhang Jitao Chen Peng Liang Li Wang | 2012 | Journal of Environmental Sciences2012,24,12: | 12 |
| 4 | Effects of Service Condition on Rolling Contact Fatigue Failure Mechanism and Lifetime of Thermal Spray Coatings——A Review显示文摘The service condition determines the Rolling Contact Fatigue(RCF) failure mechanism and lifetime under ascertain material structure integrity parameter of thermal spray coating. The available literature on the RCF testing of thermal spray coatings under various condition services is considerable; it is generally difficult to synthesize all of the result to obtain a comprehensive understanding of the parameters which has a great effect on a thermal spray coating's resistance of RCF. The effects of service conditions(lubrication states, contact stresses, revolve speed, and slip ratio) on the changing of thermal spray coatings' contact fatigue lifetime is introduced systematically. The effects of different service condition on RCF failure mechanism of thermal spray coating from the change of material structure integrity are also summarized. Moreover, In order to enhance the RCF performance, the parameter optimal design formula of service condition and material structure integrity is proposed based on the effect of service condition on thermal spray coatings' contact fatigue lifetime and RCF failure mechanism. The shortage of available literature and the forecast focus in future researches are discussed based on available research. The explicit result of RCF lifetime law and parameter optimal design formula in term of lubrication states, contact stresses, revolve speed, and slip ratio, is significant to improve the RCF performance on the engineering application. | CUI Huawei CUI Xiufang WANG Haidou XING Zhiguo JIN Guo | 2015 | Chinese Journal of Mechanical Engineering2015,28,1: | 12 |
| 5 | DEVELOPMENT OF EXPERIMENTAL METHODS FOR IMPACT TESTING BY COMBINING HOPKINSON PRESSURE BAR WITH OTHER TECHNIQUES显示文摘The split Hopkinson pressure bar(SHPB) technique and the wave propagation inverse analysis(WPIA) technique are both extensively used to experimentally investigate the impact behavior of materials, although neither of them alone provides a fully satisfactory analysis. In the present paper, attention is given to new experimental techniques by incorporating a damagemodified constitutive model into the SHPB technique and combining the Hopkinson pressure bar(HPB) technique with WPIA. First, to distinguish the response due to dynamic constitutive behavior and the response due to dynamic damage evolution, the SHPB method incorporating a damage-modified constitutive model is developed, including an explicit damage-modified Zhu–Wang–Tang model and an implicit damage-modified constitutive model. Second, when the SHPB results become invalid, a method of combining new Lagrange inverse analyses with the HPB technique is developed, including cases of the HPB arranged in front of a long specimen and behind the specimen. As examples of these new methods, typical results are given for nonlinear viscoelastic polymers and concretes considering damage evolution, a super-elastic Ti–Ni alloy with phase transformation and an aluminum foam with shock waves propagating within it. | Lili Wang Shisheng Hu Liming Yang Zijian Sun Jue Zhu Huawei Lai Yuanyuan Ding | 2014 | Acta Mechanica Solida Sinica2014,27,4: | 9 |
| 6 | A novel mutation in the MITF may be digenic with GJB2 mutations in a large Chinese family of Waardenburg syndrome type Ⅱ显示文摘Waardenburg syndrome typeⅡ(WS2) is associated with syndromic deafness.A subset of WS2,WS2A,accounting for approximately 15%of patients,is attributed to mutations in the microphthalmia-associated transcription factor(MITF) gene.We examined the genetic basis of WS2 in a large Chinese family.All 9 exons of the MITF gene,the single coding exon(exon 2) of the most common hereditary deafness gene GJB2 and the mitochondrial DNA(mtDNA) 12S rRNA were sequenced.A novel heterozygous mutation c.[742_743delAAinsT;746_747delCA]in exon 8 of the MITF gene co-segregates with WS2 in the family.The MITF mutation results in a premature termination codon and a truncated MITF protein with only 247 of the 419 wild type amino acids.The deaf proband had this MITF gene heterozygous mutation as well as a c.[109G>A]+ [235delC]compound heterozygous pathogenic mutation in the GJB2 gene.No pathogenic mutation was found in mtDNA 12S rRNA in this family.Thus,a novel compound heterozygous mutation,c.[742_743delAAinsT;746_747delCA]in MITF exon 8 was the key genetic reason for WS2 in this family,and a digenic effect of MITF and GJB2 genes may contribute to deafness of the proband. | Xukun Yan Tianyu Zhang Zhengmin Wang Yi Jiang Yan Chen Hongyan Wang Duan Ma Lei Wang Huawei Li | 2011 | Journal of Genetics and Genomics2011,38,12: | 8 |
| 7 | Active dry yeast supplementation improves the growth performance,rumen fermentation, and immune response of weaned beef calves显示文摘The objective of this experiment was to investigate the potential benefits of active dry yeast(ADY)on the growth performance,rumen fermentation,nutrient digestibility,and serum parameters of weaned beef calves.Thirty Simmental crossbred male calves(body weight=86.47±4.41 kg and 70±4 d of age)were randomly divided into 2 groups:control(CON)(fed basal ration)and ADY(fed basal ration and 5 g/d ADY per calf).The dietary concentrate-to-roughage ratio was 35:65.All the calves were regularly provided rations 3 times a day at 07:00,13:00,and 19:00 and had free access to wate r.The experiment lasted for 60 d.The average daily gain of ADY group was higher(P=0.007)than that of the CON group,and the ratio of feed intake to average daily gain in the ADY group was reduced(P=0.022)as compared to the CON group.The concentration of ruminal ammonia-N was higher(P=0.023)in the CON group than that in the ADY group,but an opposite trend of microbial protein was found between the 2 groups.Also,the ruminal concentrations of propionate and butyrate were higher(P<0.05)in the ADY group than those in the CON group.Calves fed ADY exhibited higher(P<0.05)crude protein and neutral detergent fiber digestibility.Supplementation of ADY increased(P<0.05)the contents of glucose,glutathione peroxidase,superoxide dismutase,immunoglobulin A,immunoglobulin M,and interleukin 10 in the serum of calves,but an opposite trend was observed in malondialdehyde,interleukin 1 beta,and tumor necrosis factor alpha contents between the 2 groups.In conclusion,dietary supplementation with ADY could improve the growth performance,rumen fermentation,nutrient digestibility,antioxidant ability,and immune response of weaned beef calves. | Jian Ma Cheng Wang Zhisheng Wang Guang Cao Rui Hu Xueying Wang Huawei Zou Kun Kang Quanhui Peng Bai Xue Lizhi Wang Yueming Zhu Xiaopeng Zhu | 2021 | Animal Nutrition2021,,4: | 7 |

| 9 | Tectonic and Environmental Evolutions of the Northern Tibetan Plateau Prior to the Collision of India with Asia显示文摘Tectonic and environmental patterns and evolution of the present North Tibetan Plateau(NTP) prior to the India collision with Asia is significant to understand the formation of the Tibetan Plateau and its influence on the environment. In this study, we integrated and analyzed the tectonostratigraphy and the special sedimentary layers whose climatic implications are clear in the NTP. Additionally, we stressed the tectonic and environmental events and their evolutions from the Mesozoic to the Early Cenozoic. Our results show that four tectonic phases, which sequentially took place during the Triassic, Jurassic, Cretaceous and Paleogene, played an important role on the formation of the North Tibet. The climate was basically dry and hot from the Triassic to the Eocene and became dry and cool since the Oligocene in this region. The climatic evolution was characterized by a transition from a wet and hot phase during the Triassic- Middle Jurassic, to a dry and hot phase during the Late Jurassic- Eocene. Both phases encompassed 5 wet and hot periods followed by 5 dry and hot climate events, respectively. In addition, we found that the tectonic deformation and the climatic conditions were spatially and temporally different. In detail, in the regions north of the PaleoTian Shan and Paleo-Qilian Mts. the tectonic deformation and climatic condition were stronger and wetter than in regions south of the Paleo-Tian Shan and Paleo-Qilian Mts. during the Late Triassic – Jurassic. Whereas in the Cretaceous, the tectonic movement was intensive in the west but steady in the east, and climate was dry in the south but wet in the north of NTP. The formation of the tectonic and climatic patterns in NTP were the consequence of either global climate change or regional tectonics, including the Paleo-Asian Ocean closure and the Qiangtang block, Lhasa block and India plate collision subsequently to Asia. Furthermore, the regional tectonic events occurred before any global climate change and drove the climatic change in the NTP. | DAI Shuang ZHANG Mingzhen PENG Dongxiang WANG Huawei WU Maoxian CHEN Ruiling ZHANG Xiang | 2014 | Acta Geologica Sinica(English Edition)2014,88,2: | 6 |

| 11 | Chaos synchronization with dual-channel time-delayed couplings显示文摘While the significance of oscillator dynamics and coupling structure to synchronization behaviors has been well addressed in the literature, little attention has been paid to the possible influence of coupling functions. In the present paper, adopting the scheme of dual-channel time-delayed couplings, we investigate how the synchronization behaviors of networked chaotic oscillators are influenced by parameters in the coupling functions. It is found that, with the introduction of the second coupling channel, the synchronization region, as calculated according to the method of master stability function(MSF), can be largely modified. In particular, by a slight change of the time delay, it is found that the synchronization region can be significantly adjusted, or even switched from non-existing to existing. We demonstrate this interesting phenomenon for both situations of processing and propagation induced time delays, as well as for different coupling functions. Our studies shed new light on the mechanism of chaos synchronization, and may potentially be used for the control of complex network dynamics. | FAN HuaWei WANG YaFeng CHEN MengJiao WANG XinGang | 2016 | Science China(Technological Sciences)2016,59,3: | 4 |
| 12 | Identification of the varietal origin of processed loose-leaf tea based on analysis of a single leaf by SNP nanofluidic array显示文摘Tea is an important cash crop, representing a $40 billion-a-year global market. Differentiation of the tea market has resulted in increasing demand for tea products that are sustainably and responsibly produced. Tea authentication is important because of growing concerns about fraud involving premium tea products. Analytical technologies are needed for protection and value enhancement of high-quality brands. For loose-leaf teas, the challenge is that the authentication needs to be established on the basis of a single leaf, so that the products can be traced back to the original varieties. A new generation of molecular markers offers an ideal solution for authentication of processed agricultural products. Using a nanofluidic array to identify variant SNP sequences, we tested genetic identities using DNA extracted from single leaves of 14 processed commercial tea products. Based on the profiles of 60 SNP markers, the genetic identity of each tea sample was unambiguously identified by multilocus matching and ordination analysis. Results for repeated samples of multiple tea leaves from the same products(using three independent DNA extractions) showed 100% concordance, showing that the nanofluidic system is a reliable platform for generating tea DNA fingerprints with high accuracy. The method worked well on green, oolong, and black teas, and can handle a large number of samples in a short period of time. It is robust and cost-effective, thus showing high potential for practical application in the value chain of the tea industry. | Wanping Fang Lyndel W.Meinhardt Huawei Tan Lin Zhou Sue Mischke Xinghua Wang Dapeng Zhang | 2016 | The Crop Journal2016,4,4: | 4 |
| 13 | Simultaneous gene editing of three homoeoalleles in self-incompatible allohexaploid grasses显示文摘Clustered regularly interspaced palindromic repeats(CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated protein 9(Cas9)system has been widely used for precise gene editing in plants.However,simultaneous gene editing of multiple homoeoalleles remains challenging,especially in self-incompatible polyploid plants.Here,we simultaneously introduced targeted mutations in all three homoeoalleles of two genes in the self-incompatible allohexaploid tall fescue,using both CRISPR/Cas9 and LbCas12a(LbCpf1)systems.Loss-of-function mutants of FaPDS exhibited albino leaves,while knockout of FaHSP17.9 resulted in impaired heat resistance in T0 generation of tall fescue.Moreover,these mutations were inheritable.Our findings demonstrate the feasibility of generating loss-of-function mutants in T0 generation polyploid perennial grasses using CRISPR/Cas systems. | Liang Zhang Tao Wang Guangyang Wang Aoyue Bi Misganaw Wassie Yan Xie Liwen Cao Huawei Xu Jinmin Fu Liang Chen Yang Zhao Tao Hu | 2021 | Journal of Integrative Plant Biology2021,63,8: | 3 |

| 15 | PtNi-W/C with Atomically Dispersed Tungsten Sites Toward Boosted ORR in Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell Devices显示文摘The performance of proton exchange membrane fuel cells is heavily dependent on the microstructure of electrode catalyst especially at low catalyst loadings.This work shows a hybrid electrocatalyst consisting of PtNi-W alloy nanocrystals loaded on carbon surface with atomically dispersed W sites by a two-step straightforward method.Single-atomic W can be found on the carbon surface,which can form protonic acid sites and establish an extended proton transport network at the catalyst surface.When implemented in membrane electrode assembly as cathode at ultra-low loading of 0.05 mgPt cm^(−2),the peak power density of the cell is enhanced by 64.4%compared to that with the commercial Pt/C catalyst.The theoretical calculation suggests that the single-atomic W possesses a favorable energetics toward the formation of*OOH whereby the intermediates can be efficiently converted and further reduced to water,revealing a interfacial cascade catalysis facilitated by the single-atomic W.This work highlights a novel functional hybrid electrocatalyst design from the atomic level that enables to solve the bottle-neck issues at device level. | Huawei Wang Jialong Gao Changli Chen Wei Zhao Zihou Zhang Dong Li Ying Chen Chenyue Wang Cheng Zhu Xiaoxing Ke Jiajing Pei Juncai Dong Qi Chen Haibo Jin Maorong Chai Yujing Li | 2023 | Nano-Micro Letters2023,15,9: | 3 |
| 16 | Treatment of autosomal recessive hearing loss via in vivo CRISPR/Cas9-mediated optimized homology-directed repair in mice显示文摘Dear Editor,Hearing loss is the most common sensory disorder in the world.Among cases of non-syndromic hearing loss,which account for 70%of all cases of genetic hearing loss,around 80%of cases arise from autosomal recessive loss-of-function mutations that require repair,rather than disruption,of the mutant allele.1 CRISPR/Cas9-mediated homology-directed repair(HDR)-based therapies have the potential to cure many genetic diseases because this class of therapeutics can achieve arbitrary base changes as well as the insertion or deletion of DNA fragments/However. | Xi Gu Xinde Hu Daqi Wang Zhijiao Xu Fang Wang Di Li Geng-lin Li Hui Yang Huawei Li Erwei Zuo Yilai Shu | 2022 | Cell Research2022,32,7: | 3 |

Generalized basis functions for Doo-Sabin surfaces are also derived. Thus, the prejudice is disproved further that subdivision surfaces cannot be evaluated precisely. | WANG Huawei and QIN Kaihuai(Department of Computer Science and Technology, Tsinghua University, Beijing 100084, China) | 2003 | Progress in Natural Science:Materials International2003,13,5: | 3 |
| 18 | Dual-channel type tunable field-effect transistors based on vertical bilayer WS2(1−x)Se2x/SnS2 heterostructures显示文摘Layered semiconductor heterostructures are essential elements in modern electronic and optoelectronic devices.Dynamically engineering the composition of these heterostructures may enable the flexible design of the properties of heterostructure-based electronics and optoelectronics as well as their optimization.Here,we report for the first time a two-step chemical vapor deposition approach for a series of WS2(1−x)Se2x/SnS2 vertical heterostructures with high-quality and large areas.The steady-state photoluminescence results exhibit an obvious composition-related quenching ratio,revealing a strong coherence between the band offset and the charge transfer efficiency at the junction interface.Based on the achieved heterostructures,dual-channel backgate field-effect transistors were successfully designed and exhibited typical composition-dependent transport behaviors,and pure n-type unipolar transistors to ambipolar transistors were realized in such systems.The direct vapor growth of these novel vertical WS2(1−x)Se2x/SnS2 heterostructures could offer an interesting system for probing new physical properties and provide a series of layered heterostructures for high-quality devices. | Biyuan Zheng Dong Li Chenguang Zhu Jianyue Lan Xingxia Sun Weihao Zheng Huawei Liu Xuehong Zhang Xiaoli Zhu Yexin Feng Tao Xu Litao Sun Gengzhao Xu Xiao Wang Chao Ma Anlian Pan | 2020 | InfoMat2020,2,4: | 3 |
| 19 | Ambient TSP concentration and dustfall variation in Urumqi,China显示文摘Total suspended particulate(TSP, particle diameter≤100 μm) was the dominant air pollutant and significantly influenced local air quality. In this paper, we investigated the interannual and seasonal variations of TSP and dustfall of the atmosphere over Urumqi, the capital city of Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region, northwestern China, basing on environmental monitoring records and meteorological data from 1986–2012. The results showed that during the study period, annual average TSP concentration decreased from 716 to 260 μg/m3, with an average level of 422.9 μg/m3, while dustfall intensity reduced from 350.4 to 166.6 t/(km2?a), with an average level of 259 t/(km2?a). Over 50% of the annual pollution days were induced mainly by TSP. Spring and winter had relatively higher dustfall intensities, and dense traffic and residential areas had the highest dustfall intensities in the Urumqi metropolitan area. With an annual average precipitation of less than 300 mm, atmospheric particulates in Urumqi could be hardly removed through wet deposition. During spring and summertime prevailing winds from northwest and northeast could carry aeolian dust particles from sandy deserts to Urumqi. Aeolian dusts from deserts would remain to be a priority regarding air pollution control in arid oasis cities. | XiaoXiao ZHANG Xi CHEN YuHong GUO ZiFa WANG LianYou LIU Cottle PAUL ShengYu LI HuaWei PI | 2014 | Journal of Arid Land2014,6,6: | 3 |
| 20 | Soft-Control for Collective Opinion of Weighted DeGroot Model显示文摘The DeGroot model is a classic model to study consensus of opinion in a group of individuals(agents). Consensus can be achieved under some circumstances. But when the group reach consensus with a convergent opinion value which is not what we expect, how can we intervene the system and change the convergent value? In this paper a mechanism named soft control is first introduced in opinion dynamics to guide the group's opinion when the population are given and evolution rules are not allowed to change. According to the idea of soft control, one or several special agents,called shills, are added and connected to one or several normal agents in the original group. Shills act and are treated as normal agents. The authors prove that the change of convergent opinion value is decided by the initial opinion and influential value of the shill, as well as how the shill connects to normal agents. An interesting and counterintuitive phenomenon is discovered: Adding a shill with an initial opinion value which is smaller(or larger) than the original convergent opinion value dose not necessarily decrease(or increase) the convergent opinion value under some conditions. These conditions are given through mathematical analysis and they are verified by the numerical tests. The authors also find out that the convergence speed of the system varies when a shill is connected to different normal agents. Our simulations show that it is positively related to the degree of the connected normal agent in scale-free networks. | HAN Huawei QIANG Chengcang WANG Caiyun HAN Jing | 2017 | Journal of Systems Science & Complexity2017,30,3: | 3 |
