The future of the city centre: Urbanisation, transformation and resilience – a tale of two Newcastle cities

open access: yesUrban studies, 2020
Recent debates over the content and theoretical orientation of urban studies act as a strong reminder that the nature and existence of the city as a form of spatial urban agglomeration is changing.

Opportunities for early intervention: bringing perpetrators of family violence into view [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
This report calls for earlier and more proactive intervention in family violence, arguing that while family violence has finally come to attention as a systemic wrong in need of a National Plan, a significant gap exists in our collective response ...

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.

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Calpains dimerize via penta‐EF‐hand (PEF) domains. Using single‐molecule force spectroscopy, we measured the strength and kinetics of PEF–PEF homodimer binding. The interaction is robust, shows a transient conformational step before dissociation, and remains largely insensitive to Ca2+.

Some theoretical musings on a basic income [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Basic income schemes are frequently derided as being unaffordable[1]. In order to assess the theoretical validity of this claim, it is necessary to elucidate how a basic income differs from most existing social protection schemes.

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.

Anatomy of b → c τ ν anomalies

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2018
In recent times, one of the strongest hints of Physics Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) has been the anomaly in the ratios R D and R D * $$ {R}_{D^{*}} $$ measured in the charged current decays of B-mesons.

International migration in New Zealand: Context, components and policy issues [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
This paper explores Aotearoa/New Zealand’s distinctive heritage as both a ‘traditional land of immigration’ as well as a ‘country of emigration’, with particular reference to contemporary policy issues and research initiatives. An underlying theme of the
