Time after time – circadian clocks through the lens of oscillator theory

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Oscillator theory bridges physics and circadian biology. Damped oscillators require external drivers, while limit cycles emerge from delayed feedback and nonlinearities. Coupling enables tissue‐level coherence, and entrainment aligns internal clocks with environmental cues.

High Mobility Ge pMOSFETs with ZrO2 Dielectric: Impacts of Post Annealing

open access: yesNanoscale Research Letters, 2019
This paper investigates the impacts of post metal annealing (PMA) and post deposition annealing (PDA) on the electrical performance of Ge p-type metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (pMOSFETs) with ZrO2 dielectric.

Evolutionary growth strategy of GaN on (1 1 1) diamond modulated by nano-patterned buffer engineering

open access: yesMaterials & Design, 2023
GaN-on-diamond wafers are investigated to overcome the heat accumulation issues in GaN-based electronic devices. Until now, growing the high-quality GaN film on the diamond for device manufacture is still a great challenge.

The newfound relationship between extrachromosomal DNAs and excised signal circles

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Extrachromosomal DNAs (ecDNAs) contribute to the progression of many human cancers. In addition, circular DNA by‐products of V(D)J recombination, excised signal circles (ESCs), have roles in cancer progression but have largely been overlooked. In this Review, we explore the roles of ecDNAs and ESCs in cancer development, and highlight why these ...

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 ...

High mobility Ge pMOSFETs with amorphous Si passivation: impact of surface orientation

open access: yesNanoscale Research Letters, 2019
We report the amorphous Si passivation of Ge pMOSFETs fabricated on (001)-, (011)-, and (111)-orientated surfaces for advanced CMOS and thin film transistor applications.

Inhibiting stearoyl‐CoA desaturase suppresses bone metastatic prostate cancer by modulating cellular stress, mTOR signaling, and DNA damage response

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Bone metastasis in prostate cancer (PCa) patients is a clinical hurdle due to the poor understanding of the supportive bone microenvironment. Here, we identify stearoyl‐CoA desaturase (SCD) as a tumor‐promoting enzyme and potential therapeutic target in bone metastatic PCa.

The (Glg)ABCs of cyanobacteria: modelling of glycogen synthesis and functional divergence of glycogen synthases in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

A Novel Dopingless Fin-Shaped SiGe Channel TFET with Improved Performance

open access: yesNanoscale Research Letters, 2020
In this paper, a dopingless fin-shaped SiGe channel TFET (DF-TFET) is proposed and studied. To form a high-efficiency dopingless line tunneling junction, a fin-shaped SiGe channel and a gate/source overlap are induced.

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...
