Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Global Ecology and ConservationBeta diversity is often assessed at different spatial and temporal scales and, consequently, has been defined in multiple ways. Here, we define four unique aspects of beta diversity that encompass the diverse applications of this concept in ecology and ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

Functional Diversity Plays a Role in Driving Beta-Diversity-Or Does It?
, 2018 Patrick and Brown (2018) suggest that functional diversity of the species pool has an important role in generating beta-diversity. Using a combination of path analysis and model selection, they ostensibly provide support for this hypothesis; however ...

An isoform of 14‐3‐3 protein regulates transbilayer lipid movement at the plasma membrane
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Loss of 14‐3‐3ζ in CHO cells confers resistance to exogenous phosphatidylserine (PS) and impairs endocytosis‐independent inward flip‐flop of fluorescent PS at the plasma membrane. RNAi‐mediated knockdown reproduces this defect, while no additive effect is seen in ATP11C‐deficient cells.

Beta Diversity of Stream Fish Communities: Partitioning Variation Between Abiotic and Spatial Factors [PDF]
, 2016 Variation in species composition of assemblages within a region is known as beta diversity. Beta diversity contributes to regional diversity (gamma), and understanding the factors that maintain it and explain variation of it are necessary for conserving ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Septin 9 polybasic domains couple phosphoinositide‐rich membrane binding to centrosome positioning, Golgi organization, and microtubule acetylation to control epithelial polarity. Their loss disrupts this axis, causing centrosome mispositioning, Golgi fragmentation, reduced microtubule acetylation, and polarity inversion via upregulation of the ...

ParasitologyWe studied the relationships between functional alpha and beta diversities of fleas and their small mammalian hosts in 4 biogeographic realms (the Afrotropics, the Nearctic, the Neotropics and the Palearctic), considering 3 components of alpha diversity (
