Replacement of rectrices by wintering White Wagtails: an experiment to examine effects of sex, age, and body condition

open access: yesJournal of Field Ornithology, 2022
Adventitious replacement is regrowth of accidentally lost feathers outside usual molt periods. To examine the intrinsic factors affecting adventitious replacement, I conducted feather-plucking experiments on White Wagtail (Motacilla alba lugens) during ...

Artificial molecular machines and motors—Design and control of nanoscale motion

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Molecules are constantly moving because of thermal fluctuations, but random motion alone cannot be exploited to perform directional tasks. Artificial molecular machines use chemical, electrical, or light energy to bias this motion. Molecular shuttles, rotary motors, and supramolecular pumps illustrate how nanoscale movement can be controlled and ...

Body Condition Scoring Grid for Yellow Cattle (Vietnam)

open access: yes
In tropical countries subject to significant quantitative and qualitative variations in the availability of fodder during the year, the dissatisfaction of feed needs is a frequent situation for animals reared in grazing systems without a sufficient ...

The heterodimeric amino acid transporters (HAT) of the SLC7/SLC3 family: A structure−function relationships and relevance to human pathology

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Heterodimeric amino acid transporters consist of SLC7 and SLC3 family proteins arranged in a conserved structural organization. They regulate nutrient transport across cell membranes, supporting essential cellular functions. These transporters also contribute to xenobiotic/drug uptake and distribution.

Body Condition Scoring Grid for Goat (Sahel and Savannah areas)

open access: yes
In tropical countries subject to significant quantitative and qualitative variations in the availability of fodder during the year, the dissatisfaction of feed needs is a frequent situation for animals maintained on rangelands without a sufficient ...

Drought-linked resource limitations on the body condition of a large ungulate

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution
Understanding how indirect effects of climate can interact with density-dependent processes has become increasingly important as variability changes resource availability for wildlife. Both climate and animal density can drive the abundance of vegetation

Metastatic niche shaped by host factors influences disseminated cancer cell fate

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Metastasis is shaped not only by cancer cells but also by the environments they encounter. This review explores how factors such as aging, diet, the microbiome, lifestyle, and environmental exposures remodel organ‐specific niches in the lung, liver, bone, and brain, influencing where metastatic cells survive, remain dormant, or grow, and ultimately ...

The genetic relationship between commencement of luteal activity and calving interval, body condition score, production, and linear type traits in Holstein-Friesian dairy cattle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The decline of fertility in the UK dairy herd and the unfavorable genetic correlation (r(a)) between fertility and milk yield has necessitated the broadening of breeding goals to include fertility.

Smaller is better: nanobodies meet NMR

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nanobodies are single‐domain antigen‐binding fragments derived from camelid heavy chain antibodies. Their small size, high stability, and exceptional specificity make nanobodies uniquely useful probes for NMR studies of protein dynamics, transient conformational states, and protein–protein interactions.
