Natural Capital and the Resource Curse

open access: yes, 2012
An abundance of natural resources is intuitively expected to be a blessing. Nonetheless, it has been argued for some decades that large endowments of natural resources oil, gas, and minerals in particular may

Exon 7 splicing of ERα predicts poor prognosis and increases phenotypic heterogeneity in luminal a subtype breast cancer

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
ERα splice variant ERα∆7 lacks the C‐terminus, and its expression may change phenotypes of breast cancers. Our results showed that ERα∆7 is found in the luminal A subtype, and elevated ERα∆7 levels are linked to improved cell survival with lower proliferation and migration.

Abundance-diameter relationships for trees within the 25-ha Rabi plot.

open access: yes, 2016
The relationship between diameter and abundance for all trees (A) has a linear decline in log-log coordinates of z = -2.63 (R2 = 0.96). An abundant canopy tree, Tetraberlinia moreliana (B), which includes the largest individual tree in the plot, and is ...

YlmG1 is localized exclusively to the chloroplast envelope membrane and is involved in preprotein translocation in Arabidopsis thaliana

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Cytosolically synthesized chloroplast preproteins are translocated across the outer and inner envelope membranes through translocons called TOC and TIC, respectively. In green algae and plants, the TIC core is composed of essential membrane proteins, Tic12, Tic20, and Tic214.

Modeling distribution and abundance of Antarctic baleen whales using ships of opportunity

open access: yes, 2012
Information on animal abundance and distribution is at the cornerstone of many wildlife and conservation strategies. However, these data can be difficult and costly to obtain for cetacean species.

Rapid screening of staphylokinase protein variants using an unpurified cell‐free expression system

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
An unpurified cell‐free protein synthesis (CFPS) platform enables rapid functional screening of staphylokinase variants. Direct plasminogen‐activation assays performed in microplate format provide real‐time activity readouts, allowing rapid identification and ranking of variants with improved or reduced fibrinolytic activity without protein ...

ASSESSING THE ABUNDANCE OF BASKING SHARKS (CETORHINUS MAXIMUS) IN ATLANTIC CANADIAN WATERS

open access: yes, 2022
The Atlantic Canadian population of basking sharks (Cetorhinus maximus) is designated Special Concern by COSEWIC. Little is known about their population size or life history, though they are considered to have long life histories and be inherently ...

Systemic dysregulation of apolipoproteins in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis serum

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal disease that damages motor neurons. This study found that people with ALS show significant changes in blood fats and the proteins that carry them. Several apolipoproteins were higher, lipid balances were altered, and normal protein–lipid relationships were disrupted.

Ecological equivalence: a realistic assumption for niche theory as a testable alternative to neutral theory

open access: yes, 2009
Hubbell's 2001 neutral theory unifies biodiversity and biogeography by modelling steady-state distributions of species richness and abundances across spatio-temporal scales.
