Human ABCE1 cannot functionally replace its yeast ortholog. Yeast–human chimera analysis identified NBD1 as a major interspecies barrier. Genetic screening yielded hABCE1 revertants that rescue yeast viability but fail to suppress aberrant translation reinitiation in the 3′ UTR.

A unified approach to link small-strain shear modulus and liquefaction resistance of pumiceous sand
Natural pumiceous (NP) sands containing pumice particles, a type of volcanic soil, are commonly found in the central part of the North Island in New Zealand.

The Role of Calcitonin Gene‐Related Peptide in High‐Altitude Headache: A Prospective Field Study
ABSTRACT Objective High‐altitude headache (HAH) is a common neurological condition associated with rapid ascent to high altitude. The pathophysiological mechanisms underlying HAH remain incompletely understood. Calcitonin gene‐related peptide (CGRP), a neuropeptide implicated in migraine pathophysiology, may play a key role in the pathophysiology of ...

Effect of earthquake excitation on circular tunnels: Numerical and experimental study
This paper studies the behaviour of circular tunnel subjected to dynamic excitation. Tunnels with three different diameters were selected to perform the shake table test at three different covers. The dry sandy soil was used for testing.

Elastic Parameters of Intermediate Soils Based on Bender-Extender Elements Pulse Tests
The elastic behaviour of compacted soils subjected to very small strains (smaller than 10 -5) is essential, because the serviceability of most geotechnical structures depends on soil elastic properties. Small-strain stiSness of soils was studied in the past years using diSerent experimental devices (mainly resonant columns).

Two-dimensional discrete element modelling of bender element tests on an idealised granular material [PDF]
The small-strain (elastic) shear stiffness of soil is an important parameter in geotechnics. It is required as an input parameter to predict deformations and to carry out site response analysis to predict levels of shaking during earthquakes. Bender element testing is often used in experimental soil mechanics to determine the shear (S-) wave velocity ...

ABSTRACT Multisystemic smooth muscle dysfunction syndrome (MSMDS) is an ultra‐rare, ACTA2‐related disorder characterized by severe cerebrovascular disease, aortic aneurysms, and smooth muscle dysfunction. Using molecular dynamics simulations and in silico drug screening, we identified that sapropterin dihydrochloride (Kuvan) is a candidate capable of ...

Determination of the force necessary by experiment to bend schedule 40 pipe [PDF]
The tube bending process consists of plastically deforming the material by applying bending loads to the element until its yielding is overcome. Mechanical bending tests help determine the properties of a material, properties that are used to design the ...
