China leads in global sci-tech innovation clusters




China's number of top 100 global science and technology innovation clusters continues to lead the world this year, according to a report of the World Intellectual Property Organization.



The 2024 edition of the WIPO's Global Innovation Index released on Monday showed that China had 26 of the top 100 global science and technology innovation clusters, surpassing last year's 24. The United States closely followed with 20, it said, adding that Germany had eight, and India and South Korea each four.

Seven of the top 10 science and technology innovation clusters globally are in Asia, with the rest in the US, it said.

The dynamics of the top 100 science and technology innovation clusters indicate strong growth in innovation from middle-income economies, especially in China, the WIPO said.

WIPO Director General Daren Tang said that science and technology innovation clusters serve as the foundation of a country's innovation ecosystem. The clusters are not only thriving in developed countries but are also gradually emerging in developing economies. He said that WIPO will continue to support these clusters, helping them leverage intellectual property to translate research outcomes into practical solutions.

Each year, the index ranks countries and economies around the world, quantifying the spatial concentration of technological innovation activities.

Biochemists create protocells to explore how lipids may have led to first cell membranes

Image
A team of biochemists at the University of California, San Diego, working with a group of biochemical engineers from the University of California, Los Angeles, has found that the development of short lipids might have led to the development of the first cell membranes on early Earth. In their study published in the journal Nature Chemistry , the group combined cysteine with chemical relatives of fatty acids to form lipids with two tails, finding clues about the origins of life on Earth. The research team reasoned that for cells to get their start on early Earth, some form of cell boundary must have formed first to protect cell contents from the environment. Noting that modern cell membranes are all made of lipids, the researchers wondered if the first cell membranes might have been made of lipids as well—and if that was the case, how they might have developed from simple molecules. They also noted that modern cell membranes are complex and generally long chained. Suspecting that earl...

From chaos to order: Proteins can re-structure themselves to create important substances

Image
The protein 'MIPS' changes its internal structure when it becomes active. Its disordered active centre becomes a defined structure with special functions. The protein plays a key role in the production of inositol, which is also known as vitamin B8, and fulfils important tasks in the body. Researchers at Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg (MLU) and the National Hellenic Research Centre in Greece have succeeded for the first time in observing the protein as it re-structures. As the team reports in the scientific journal 'Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences' (PNAS) this process appears to occur in many similar proteins. Proteins control all vital processes in every organism, for example growth and metabolism. A basic principle of protein research is that the structure of each protein determines its function. If the structure is impaired at just one specific point, the protein can no longer fulfil its function. In the human body, this can lead, for exam...
