Complexing additives to reduce the immiscible phase formed in the hybrid ZnBr2 flow battery [PDF]
The zinc-bromine redox flow battery (RFB) is one of a very few commercially viable RFB energy storage system capable of integration with intermittent renewable energy sources to deliver improved energy management.

Structurally and functionally unique complexins at retinal ribbon synapses [PDF]
Ribbon synapses in retinal sensory neurons maintain large pools of readily releasable synaptic vesicles. This allows them to release several hundreds of vesicles per second at every presynaptic release site. The molecular components that cause this high transmitter release efficiency of ribbon synapses are unknown.

Proteome analysis of human substantia nigra in Parkinson's disease [PDF]
Protein expression has been compared in human substantia nigra specimens from Parkinson's disease (PD) patients and from controls, and 44 proteins expressed in this midbrain region were identified by peptide mass fingerprinting.

Proteomic Insight Into Alzheimer's Disease Pathogenesis Pathways
ABSTRACT Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a leading cause of dementia, but the pathogenesis mechanism is still elusive. Advances in proteomics have uncovered key molecular mechanisms underlying AD, revealing a complex network of dysregulated pathways, including amyloid metabolism, tau pathology, apolipoprotein E (APOE), protein degradation ...

Do trophic subsidies affect the outcome of introductions of a non-native freshwater fish? [PDF]
Understanding how environmental variables and human disturbances influence the outcomes of introductions of non-native freshwater fish is integral to their risk management. This can be complex in freshwater ecosystems that receive subsidies that increase

Presynaptic quantal size enhancement counteracts post‐tetanic release depression
Abstract figure legend Sustained high‐frequency stimulation decreases the number of synaptic vesicles that fuse per action potential at the Drosophila neuromuscular junction. However, the postsynaptic response remains largely unchanged. An increased postsynaptic response to individual vesicles, likely driven by an increase in vesicle size resulting ...

A role of complexin–lipid interactions in membrane fusion [PDF]
Complexins (Cpxs) and synaptotagmins regulate calcium‐dependent exocytosis. A central helix in Cpx confers specific binding to the soluble N‐ethylmaleimide‐sensitive factor‐attachment protein receptor (SNARE) fusion machinery. An accessory helix in the amino‐terminal region inhibits membrane fusion by blocking SNAREpin zippering.

Abstract figure legend Monomeric and multimeric α‐synuclein were purified from HEK cells and delivered to lamprey reticulospinal (RS) synapses via axonal microinjection, followed by stimulation (20 Hz, 5 min). Ultrastructural analysis showed that both α‐synuclein species impaired intracellular vesicle trafficking, leading to synaptic vesicle loss and ...

High-yield Escherichia coli -based cell-free expression of human proteins [PDF]
Production of sufficient amounts of human proteins is a frequent bottleneck in structural biology. Here we describe an Escherichia coli-based cell-free system which yields mg-quantities of human proteins in N-terminal fusion constructs with the GB1 ...
