The histone H3 lysine 4 demethylase RBP2 contains a DNA binding domain, the AT-rich interaction domain (ARID). We solved the structure of ARID by NMR, identified its ...

In the past half-century, cities have begun to expand in some of the Earth's most arid areas. While scientists have known for some time that the so-called "heat-island" effect of large cities such as ...

Researchers have found that arid areas, among the biggest ecosystems on the planet, take up an unexpectedly large amount of carbon as levels of carbon dioxide increase in the atmosphere. The findings ...

Reducing CO2 levels in the atmosphere will take more than cutting emissions -- we will also need to capture and store the excessive volumes of already-emitted carbon. A team of plant scientists argue ...

The safe, sustainable planning and operation of facilities and activities, such as nuclear installations and uranium facilities in regions characterized by arid or semi-arid climate, requires ...

The laws of thermodynamics dictate that a warmer atmosphere can hold more water vapor, but new research has found that atmospheric moisture has not increased as expected over arid and semi-arid ...
