FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This study reveals that the small GTPase Rab14 is necessary for human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and plays an essential role in the transport of virions to the trans‐Golgi network (TGN). HPV in the early endosome (EE), which harbors GTP‐bound Rab14, is transported to the TGN through the switch of Rab14 from its GTP‐bound to GDP‐bound form.

Centrifuge Tests of Dyke Collapses on Soft Subsoil
IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2015 This paper presents the results of an experimental investigation on the failure or collapse of dykes with a strong contrast of stiffness between the dyke itself and its foundation layers. In deltaic regions, dykes are commonly built out of stiff sandy or clayey materials and rest on soft foundations layers (e.g. soft clay or peat). Their interaction is

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase
FEBS 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.

LEAP-UCD-2017 Centrifuge Tests at Cambridge [PDF]
, 2019 As part of the LEAP project the seismic response of a liquefiable 5° slope was modelled at a number of centrifuges around the world. In this paper the two experiments conducted at Cambridge University are discussed. The model preparation is detailed with particular emphasis on the sand pouring, saturation and slope cutting process.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.An unexpected alternative interaction site for ethyl viologen was identified in formate dehydrogenase 1 from Methylorubrum extorquens. Combined mutagenesis, kinetic analysis, and docking revealed that aromatic residues near an iron–sulfur cluster enable flavin mononucleotide‐independent electron transfer, offering a framework for engineering improved ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The physical dimensions and shape of bacterial cells define the surface area available to acquire nutrients and the volume available for synthesizing proteins and DNA. Here, we use computational systems biology to decode the importance of cell geometry as a major determinant of prokaryotic phenotype, including growth rate and metabolic efficiency. This

, 2020 I dette prosjektet har en sentrifugalpumpe for elektriske motorer blitt undersøkt. En rask progresjon innen batteriteknologi og elektrisk utstyr de siste årene, har gjort det mulig å erstatte de mer tradisjonelle gassturbin-pumpene med elektriske pumper. Slike pumper er typisk mer fleksible, billigere og tryggere, samt enklere for parametrisk skalering.

Electron transfer between complexes III and IV in S. cerevisiae mitochondrial membranes
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation in S. cerevisiae mitoplasts is limited by complex IV catalytic capacity, rather than two‐dimensional cytochrome c diffusion. At physiological cytochrome c : supercomplex ratios at salinity equivalent to that of 20 mm monovalent salt, activity is maximized, indicating that this low ionic strength accurately mimics

Centrifuge Model Tests of Nailed Soil Slopes
Soils and Foundations, 1998 This paper presents the results of 24 centrifuge model tests of nailed soil slopes and vertical walls, constructed out of dry Leighton buzzard sand. The walls were initially supported by fluid pressure from flexible rubber bags against the face, and excavation was modelled by gradually draining the fluid from the bags. The finished model walls were 200

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...
