Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...

Anionic and cationic barium alginate cellulose composite membrane for oil/water separation [PDF]
This study demonstrates the fabrication of barium alginate cellulose composite membranes to separate the oil from water. The sodium alginate solution was sprayed on the cellulose membrane surface, and immersed in a barium chloride solution.

Critical flux-based membrane fouling control of forward osmosis: Behavior, sustainability, and reversibility [PDF]
Membrane fouling is closely related to the concept of critical flux. Therefore, a fouling control strategy for forward osmosis (FO) membranes that is based on the critical flux is necessary.

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

Assembling nanostructures from DNA using a composite nanotweezers with a shape memory effect
The article demonstrates a technique for fabricating a structure with the inclusion of suspended DNA threads and manipulating them using composite nanotweezers with shape memory effect. This technique could be suitable for stretching of nanothin DNA-like

Modelling the shear-tension coupling of woven engineering fabrics [PDF]
An approach to incorporate the coupling between the shear compliance and in-plane tension of woven engineering fabrics, in finite-element-based numerical simulations, is described. The method involves the use of multiple input curves that are selectively

Hyperosmotic stress induces PARP1‐mediated HPF1‐dependent mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation
Sorbitol‐induced hyperosmotic stress rapidly induces reversible mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation (MARylation) on PARP1 without the signs of genotoxic signaling. We show that PARP1 autoMARylation is HPF1 dependent and forms hydroxylamine‐resistant O‐glycosidic linkages.

The influence of polyvinyl alcohol concentration toward conductivity and permeability of chitosan - montmorillonite composite membrane [PDF]
The composite membrane is synthesized using chitosan as a matrix membrane with montmorillonite (MMT) as a filler and modified using polyvinyl alcohol (PVA).
