Computational Characterization of the Role of LEM2/LaminA Interactions on the Stability of BAF‐Dimer Using Molecular Simulations

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The effect of the presence of the BAF‐binding LEM‐domain and LaminA Ig‐fold on the stability of the BAF dimer was studied qualitatively using non‐equilibrium pull simulations and quantitatively through the calculation of the potential of mean force profile along BAF–BAF separation distance.

Cross‐Linking Mass Spectrometry of the Antimicrobial Peptides Magainin 2 and PGLa Reveals Heterodimerization in Micellar Medium

Rapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rationale In this study, we applied cross‐linking mass spectrometry (XL‐MS) to characterize the oligomeric states of a PGLa/magainin 2 mixture and gain insight into the heterodimerization previously suggested in the literature. Both peptides have shown a synergistic enhancement of activity when tested in antimicrobial assays; however, the ...

Monitoring feral pigs (Sus scrofa): Complementarity between autonomous sensing methods increases detection probability

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Invasive alien species are a major threat for biodiversity worldwide and effective monitoring is paramount to inform management. In this study we used a multi‐season occupancy model to assess probability of detection between camera traps and passive acoustic recorders for feral pigs (Sus scrofa) during 1 year of data collection.

Identity Play: Middle School Youths' Provisional Self‐Making in Horizon‐Expanding STEM Spaces

Science Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study introduces identity play as an analytic construct for science education to explore improvisational dimensions of middle school students' STEM identity development in multiple out‐of‐school learning experiences focused on environmental problem‐solving.

Radiographic evaluation of gastroliths in a group of 49 juvenile saltwater crocodiles (Crocodylus porosus) in the UK

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Gastrolith ingestion is a known inherent behaviour in crocodiles. However, the interpretation of coelomic radiographs in crocodilians is challenging due to the limited informative literature in this field. Methods Dorsoventral coelomic radiographs of 49 juvenile saltwater crocodiles (Crocodylus porosus) were acquired twice, with an ...

Detection of Leptospira in cane toads (Rhinella jimi) from urban and rural Paraíba, Brazil

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Leptospirosis is a significant zoonosis in tropical regions, where poor sanitation and favourable climate aid its spread. Synanthropic animals such as the cane toad (Rhinella jimi), which share environments with both people and wild and domestic animals, may harbour Leptospira and contribute to urban and rural transmission cycles ...
