Spatiotemporal Control Over Protein Release from Artificial Cells via a Light‐Activatable Protease

open access: yesAdvanced Biology, EarlyView.
Stimulus‐responsive protein release is essential for intercellular communication. Mimicking this functionality in artificial cells is promising to study the working principles of cellular signaling. Herein, an engineered light‐activatable protease is implemented in a coacervate‐based artificial cell platform to establish user‐defined spatiotemporal ...

Inverse Magnetic Catalysis in hot quark matter within (P)NJL models [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2015
Apart from Magnetic Catalysis at low temperatures, recent LQCD studies have shown the opposite effect at temperatures near the transition region: instead of enhancing, the magnetic field suppresses the quark condensates (Inverse Magnetic Catalysis). In this paper, two approaches are discussed within NJL-type models with Polyakov Loop that reproduce ...

Coacervates Composed of Low‐Molecular‐Weight Compounds– Molecular Design, Stimuli Responsiveness, Confined Reaction

open access: yesAdvanced Biology, EarlyView.
Coacervation driven by liquid‐liquid phase separation (LLPS) of biopolymers has garnered increasing attention in biology since this leads to the formation of membraneless organelles capable of performing essential yet largely unknown functions. This review highlights recent advances in coacervates (artificial condensates) composed of low‐molecular ...

Toward Design Principles for Biomolecular Condensates for Metabolic Pathways

open access: yesAdvanced Biology, EarlyView.
Biomolecular condensates are membrane‐less compartments found through‐out nature which can serve as reaction crucibles for biochemical processes. This review explores the design strategies underlying how condensates can be used in biotechnology to enhance multistep enzyme cascades including enhancement by mass action and substrate channeling, and ...

Enhancing the catalytic activity of hydronium ions through constrained environments

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Alcohol dehydration can be challenging in aqueous phase. Here the authors show that hydronium ions confined with zeolite pores catalyse alcohol dehydration at a significantly increased rate relative to aqueous phase hydronium ions, driven by an increased

Magnetic Catalysis in the Higher-Order Quark Sigma Model [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Particle Physics, Vol. 1, No. 1, 58 (2017), 2016
The effect of the higher-order mesonic interactions is investigated on the chiral symmetry breaking in the presence of an external magnetic field. The effective of higher-order mesonic potential is employed and is numerically solved in the mean-field approximation. The chiral symmetry breaking increases with increasing magnetic field.

The Regulation of Trace Metal Elements in Cancer Ferroptosis

open access: yesAdvanced Biology, EarlyView.
The induction of ferroptosis inhibits tumor growth, enhances anticancer efficacy, and overcomes drug resistance. Recent evidence shows nonferrous metal elements play a role in ferroptosis. This review focuses on how trace metals regulate ferroptosis processes like iron accumulation, lipid peroxidation, and antioxidant defense.
