Cell wall target fragment discovery using a low‐cost, minimal fragment library
LoCoFrag100 is a fragment library made up of 100 different compounds. Similarity between the fragments is minimized and 10 different fragments are mixed into a single cocktail, which is soaked to protein crystals. These crystals are analysed by X‐ray crystallography, revealing the binding modes of the bound fragment ligands.

Investigation and modelling of large scale cratering events : Lessons learnt from experimental analysis [PDF]
Initiated as part of the 2010 Spin Your Thesis campaign, a new ESA Education programme, a group from the University of Glasgow Space Advanced Research Team successfully conducted a series of impact cratering experiments under a highly accelerated ...

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.

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Application of a Non-Coaxial Soil Model with an Anisotropic Yield Criterion in Tunnelling
Soil strength isotropy and coaxiality of the principal axes of stress and plastic strain rate tensors are often assumed in modelling the soils around tunnels, in the conventional plastic theory.

Impact cratering experiments into highly porous bodies [PDF]
Asteroids represent both an opportunity and a risk. Their pristine environment captures the early collision evolution of the solar system; while their inherent ground impact potential could result in the mass extinction of life.

We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Assessing the link between the Geochemistry of Soils and the Bioaccessibility of Arsenic, Chromium and Lead in the Urban Environment [PDF]
One of the principal pathways for potentially harmful elements (PHE) in soil to enter the human body is through ingestion. The amount of PHE which enters the systemic circulation is governed by the amount of PHE released in the Gastrointestinal Tract ...
