Identification of novel small molecule inhibitors of ETS transcription factors
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.ETS transcription factors play an essential role in tumourigenesis and are indispensable for sprouting angiogenesis, a hallmark of cancer, which fuels tumour expansion and dissemination. Thus, targeting ETS transcription factor function could represent an effective, multifaceted strategy to block tumour growth. The evolutionarily conserved E‐Twenty‐Six

Fenton’s reagent-initiated modification of plantain (Musa paradisiaca) peel biomass – mechanisms of chain propagation and dyes removal from simulated wastewaters [PDF]
Journal of Chemistry LettersThis report describes the mechanisms of Fenton’s reagent-initiated graft-copolymerization of plantain peel biomass (PPB) and that of the polymer-dyes interactions. Methacrylic acid (MAA) was grafted onto the PPB backbone.

Evolutionary dynamics in the Bak-Sneppen model on small-world networks [PDF]
arXiv, 1999 We study the dynamics of the Bak-Sneppen model on small-world networks. For each site in the network, we define a ``connectance,'' which measures the distance to all other sites. We find radically different patterns of activity for different sites, depending on their connectance and also on the topology of the network.

Monocopper Active Site for Partial Methane Oxidation in Cu-Exchanged 8MR Zeolites
, 2016 Direct conversion of methane to methanol using oxygen is experiencing renewed interest owing to the availability of new natural gas resources. Copper-exchanged zeolites such as mordenite and ZSM-5 have shown encouraging results, and di- and tri-copper ...

Novel use of stir bar sorptive extraction (SBSE) as a tool for isolation of oviposition site attractants for gravid Culex quinquefasciatus [PDF]
, 2009 Mosquitoes such as Culex quinquefasciatus Say (Diptera: Culicidae) are important vectors of organisms that cause disease in humans. Research into the development of effective standardized odour baits for blood-fed females (oviposition attractants), to ...

The Saccharomyces cerevisiae amino acid transporter Lyp1 has a broad substrate spectrum
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Yeast Amino acid Transporter family members mediate the import of amino acids, ranging from substrate specialists to generalists. Here, we show that the specialist transporter, Lyp1, has a broader substrate spectrum than previously described, with affinity constants spanning from micromolar to millimolar.

Stochastic Models of User-Contributory Web Sites [PDF]
Proc. of the 3rd Intl Conf on Weblogs and Social Media
(ICWSM2009), pp. 50-57 (2009), 2009 We describe a general stochastic processes-based approach to modeling user-contributory web sites, where users create, rate and share content. These models describe aggregate measures of activity and how they arise from simple models of individual users.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.In lymphoid organs, antigen recognition and B cell receptor signaling rely on integrins and the cytoskeleton. Integrins act as mechanoreceptors, couple B cell receptor activation to cytoskeletal remodeling, and support immune synapse formation as well as antigen extraction.
