Broad iron line as a relativistic reflection from warm corona in AGNs

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Context. We present that the broad feature usually observed in X-ray spectra at around 6.4 keV can be explained by ray-traced emission from the two-slab system containing a dissipative, warm corona on the top of an accretion disk in an active galactic ...

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Chemical evolution and kilonova implications of post-merger accretion disk winds

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Several gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) have recently been associated with kilonova emission. We study the mechanisms that account for this effect by means of the radioactive decay of elements synthesized in accretion disk winds. Aims.

Microbiome−host proteostasis crosstalk—An emerging perspective on mechanisms and interventions toward healthy longevity

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

A TESS view of post-eruption variability in novae V1405 Cas, V1716 Sco, and V1674 Her

Astronomy & Astrophysics
We analyzed TESS archival data of three novae after recent outbursts, searching for the orbital and white dwarf (WD) rotation period and possible variations in these periods.

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Impact of magnetic field gradients on the development of the magneto-rotational instability

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Context. The magneto-rotational instability (MRI) plays a crucial role in accretion disk modelling, driving magnetohydrodynamic turbulence and facilitating enhanced angular momentum transport.

Structural insights and therapeutic targets in Acinetobacter baumannii capsule biosynthesis

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Hypervirulent KL49 A. baumannii's capsular polysaccharide contains the nonulosonic acid 8‐epi‐Leg5,7Ac2, synthesized by epimerization via ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC. Crystal structures of ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC reveal their role in CMP‐Leg5,7Ac2 synthesis and regioselective C8 epimerization.

Development and Evolution of the Rattlesnake Creek Terrane, Klamath Mountains, Northern California

Geosciences
The basement of the Rattlesnake Creek terrane (RCT) in the Klamath Mountains is a mélange of metamorphosed sedimentary and igneous blocks. Recent work shows that the overlying RCT cover sequence has a North American provenance but formed after accretion ...

Three phosphatase families form a community: The phosphohydrolases that act upon inositol pyrophosphates

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.
