Generation of Cas9 Knock-In <i>Culex quinquefasciatus</i> Mosquito Cells by Elizabeth Walsh, Tran Zen B. Torres, Brian C. Prince, Claudia Rückert

“…In comparison to the RNAi-mediated gene silencing of <i>dicer-2</i>, <i>argonaute-2b</i>, and <i>piwi5</i>, our Cas9/sgRNA approach showed an enhanced ability to detect antiviral effects. <b>Conclusions</b>: We propose that this cell line offers a new tool for studying gene function in <i>Cx. quinquefasciatus</i> mosquitoes that avoids the use of RNAi. …”

Non-onsite symmetries and quantum teleportation in split-index matrix product states by David T. Stephen

“…On the computational side, the spin chains represent a new class of states that can be used to deterministically teleport information across long distances, with the novel property that the necessary classical side processing is a non-linear function of the measurement outcomes. We also give examples of states that can serve as universal resources for measurement-based quantum computation, providing the first examples of such resources without entanglement spectrum degeneracy. …”
