Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Calabi-Yau CFTs and random matrices

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2022
Using numerical methods for finding Ricci-flat metrics, we explore the spectrum of local operators in two-dimensional conformal field theories defined by sigma models on Calabi-Yau targets at large volume.

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+.

Geometric invariants properties of osculating curves under conformal transformation in Euclidean space ℝ3

open access: yesDemonstratio Mathematica
An osculating curve is a type of curve in space that holds significance in the study of differential geometry. In this article, we investigate certain geometric invariants of osculating curves on smooth and regularly immersed surfaces under conformal ...

Overdetermined Systems, Conformal Differential Geometry, and the BGG Complex [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
This is an expanded version of a series of two lectures given at the IMA summer program “Symmetries and overdetermined systems of partial differential equations”. The main part of the article describes the Riemannian version of the prolongation procedure for certain overdetermined systems obtained recently in joint work with T.P. Branson, M.G. Eastwood,

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.

Q-Curvature, Spectral Invariants, and Representation Theory

open access: yesSymmetry, Integrability and Geometry: Methods and Applications, 2007
We give an introductory account of functional determinants of elliptic operators on manifolds and Polyakov-type formulas for their infinitesimal and finite conformal variations.

Horizons that gyre and gimble: a differential characterization of null hypersurfaces

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields
Motivated by the thermodynamics of black hole solutions conformal to stationary solutions, we study the geometric invariant theory of null hypersurfaces.

Geometric classification of 4d N=2 $$ \mathcal{N}=2 $$ SCFTs

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2018
The classification of 4d N=2 $$ \mathcal{N}=2 $$ SCFTs boils down to the classification of conical special geometries with closed Reeb orbits (CSG). Under mild assumptions, one shows that the underlying complex space of a CSG is (birational to) an affine

Poincare-Einstein Holography for Forms via Conformal Geometry in the Bulk [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We study higher form Proca equations on Einstein manifolds with boundary data along conformal infinity. We solve these Laplace-type boundary problems formally, and to all orders, by constructing an operator which projects arbitrary forms to solutions. We
