The Northern Lights: Aurora Triangulation from Photographs [PDF]

open access: yes
In this activity students use photos to determine parallax angle shifts and to calculate auroral height. They are following the work of the Norwegian scientist Carl Stormer, who used a similar technique to find out how high up aurora were located ...

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

AM Radio Ionosphere Station: Teacher's Guide [PDF]

open access: yes
In this activity students will monitor the ionosphere by using an amplitude modulated (AM) radio to track solar storms and other changes in ionosphere reflectivity. They will discover that above the earth's surface a layer of charged particles called the

Cell wall target fragment discovery using a low‐cost, minimal fragment library

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
LoCoFrag100 is a fragment library made up of 100 different compounds. Similarity between the fragments is minimized and 10 different fragments are mixed into a single cocktail, which is soaked to protein crystals. These crystals are analysed by X‐ray crystallography, revealing the binding modes of the bound fragment ligands.
