Tau acetylation at K331 has limited impact on tau pathology in vivo

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We mapped tau post‐translational modifications in humanized MAPT knock‐in mice and in amyloid‐bearing double knock‐in mice. Acetylation within the repeat domain, particularly around K331, showed modest increases under amyloid pathology. To test functional relevance, we generated MAPTK331Q knock‐in mice.

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+.

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

open access: yesFEBS 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.

Centrifuge model test study on pile-anchor support system

open access: yesSoils and Foundations
With the increasing development of underground engineering, various support systems of foundation pits are emerging, and the pile-anchor support system is widely used in deep foundation pit engineering construction. A series of centrifuge model tests for

Development and performance verification of miniature pore water pressure transducer for dynamic centrifuge modeling

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao, 2020
The miniature pore water pressure transducer is one of the key measurement tools in the geotechnical centrifuge model tests. Compared with the imported transducers, the domestic transducers still have a great distance in response accuracy, frequency ...

Valosin‐containing protein counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its ATPase activity in vitro

open access: yesFEBS 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.

Centrifuge Modelling of Composite Bucket Foundation Breakwater in Clay under Monotonic and Cyclic Loads

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
This study investigates the monotonic and cyclic performance of composite bucket foundation breakwater in clay through centrifuge modeling. The application of monotonic loads simulates extreme wave conditions, and cyclic load corresponds to long-term ...

Liquefaction characteristics of offshore wind turbine with hybrid monopile foundation via centrifuge modelling

open access: yes, 2020
Some offshore wind farms are built in seismically active areas. The offshore wind turbine (OWTs) are high-rise structures and sensitive to lateral failures during the earthquake.

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.
