The Asp1 pyrophosphatase from S. pombe hosts a [2Fe-2S]2+ cluster in vivo [PDF]
AbstractTheSchizosaccharomyces pombeAsp1 protein is a bifunctional kinase/pyrophosphatase that belongs to the highly conserved eukaryotic diphosphoinositol pentakisphosphate kinase PPIP5K/Vip1 family. The N-terminal Asp1 kinase domain generates specific high-energy inositol pyrophosphate (IPP) molecules, which are hydrolyzed by the C-terminal Asp1 ...

Reversing Lanmodulin's Metal-Binding Sequence in Short Peptides Surprisingly Increases the Lanthanide Affinity. [PDF]
Accidentally reversing the lanthanide‐binding sequences of lanmodulin‐inspired short peptides lead to the serendipitous discovery of a set of peptides with a one order of magnitude higher lanthanide‐binding affinity than the uncapped peptides synthesised in the correct direction.

Approximate boundary conditions for diffraction by thin transmissive media [PDF]
The object of this note is to describe a method that can be used to obtain useful boundary conditions to model various situations that arise in diffraction theory. In particular when wanting to apply the Wiener-Hopf technique to diffraction problems that

Single QTL mapping and nucleotide-level resolution of a physiologic trait in wine Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains. [PDF]
International audienceNatural Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast strains exhibit very large genotypic and phenotypic diversity. However, the link between phenotype variation and genetic determinism is still difficult to identify, especially in wild ...

To compare proteinuric potentials among angiotensin II (ANG II) and its fragments, [des-Asp1]-angiotensin II (ANG III) and [des-Asp1, des-Arg2]-angiotensin II (ANG IV), the peptide was intravenously infused for 30 min at doses of 0.015, 0.05, 0.15, 0.45 and 1.45 nmol/kg body weight/min.

Secreted Amyloid β-Proteins in a Cell Culture Model Include N-Terminally Extended Peptides That Impair Synaptic Plasticity [PDF]
Evidence for a central role of amyloid β-protein (Aβ) in the genesis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) has led to advanced human trials of Aβ-lowering agents.

The evolution of the Sun's birth cluster and the search for the solar siblings with Gaia [PDF]
We use self-consistent numerical simulations of the evolution and disruption of the Sun's birth cluster in the Milky Way potential to investigate the present-day phase space distribution of the Sun's siblings.

Des-asp1-angiotensin I: A metabolite of angiotensin I in the perfused feline adrenal [PDF]
The administration of radioactive angiotensin I to the retrogradely perfused feline adrenal gland caused a brisk discharge of catecholamines. Recovery of the labelled decapeptide and metabolites in the adrenal effluent fluid was complete in 5 min.

Bacillus thuringiensis Crystal Protein Cry6Aa Triggers Caenorhabditis elegans Necrosis Pathway Mediated by Aspartic Protease (ASP-1). [PDF]
Cell death plays an important role in host-pathogen interactions. Crystal proteins (toxins) are essential components of Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) biological pesticides because of their specific toxicity against insects and nematodes.
