Positivity and nonexistence of solutions for quasilinear inequalities
Electronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2016 We prove a positivity property and a nonexistence theorem for weak solutions of quasilinear differential equalities in R^N. To obtain our results, we use a comparison principle.

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

Minimal wave speed of traveling wavefronts in delayed Belousov-Zhabotinskii model
Electronic Journal of Qualitative Theory of Differential Equations, 2012 This paper is concerned with the traveling wavefronts of Belousov-Zhabotinskii model with time delay. By constructing proper upper and lower solutions and applying the theory of asymptotic spreading, the minimal wave speed is obtained under the weaker ...

FEBS 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.

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.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 ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.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 ...

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent
FEBS 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+.

FEBS 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.

On the Keldys-Fichera boundary-value problem for degenerate quasilinear elliptic equations
Electronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2002 We prove existence and uniqueness theorems for the Keldys-Fichera boundary-value problem using pseudo-monotone operators. The equation studied here is quasilinear, elliptic, and its set of degenerate points may be of non-zero measure.

AxiomsIn this study, we establish new oscillation criteria for solutions of the fourth-order differential equation (aϕuu‴)+q(u∘h)=0, which is of a functional type with a delay.
