https://www.selleckchem.com/products/genipin.html Encapsulation strategies are widely used for alleviating dissolution and diffusion of polysulfides, but they experience nonrecoverable structural failure arising from the repetitive severe volume change during lithium-sulfur battery cycling. Here we report a methodology to construct an electrochemically recoverable protective layer of polysulfides using an electrolyte additive. The additive nitrogen-doped carbon dots maintain their "dissolved" status in the electrolyte at the full charge state, and some of them function as active sites for lithium sulfide growth at the full discharge state. When polysulfides are present amid the transition between sulfur and lithium sulfide, nitrogen-doped carbon dots become highly reactive with polysulfides to form a solid and recoverable polysulfide-encapsulating layer. This design skilfully avoids structural failure and efficiently suppresses polysulfide shuttling. The sulfur cathode delivers a high reversible capacity of 891 mAh g-1 at 0.5 C with 99.5% coulombic efficiency and cycling stability up to 1000 cycles at 2 C.PIWI-clade Argonaute proteins associate with PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs), and silence transposons in animal gonads. Here, we report the crystal structure of the Drosophila PIWI-clade Argonaute Piwi in complex with endogenous piRNAs, at 2.9 Å resolution. A structural comparison of Piwi with other Argonautes highlights the PIWI-specific structural features, such as the overall domain arrangement and metal-dependent piRNA recognition. Our structural and biochemical data reveal that, unlike other Argonautes including silkworm Siwi, Piwi has a non-canonical DVDK tetrad and lacks the RNA-guided RNA cleaving slicer activity. Furthermore, we find that the Piwi mutant with the canonical DEDH catalytic tetrad exhibits the slicer activity and readily dissociates from less complementary RNA targets after the slicer-mediated cleavage, suggesting that the slicer activity coul
