Structure-based modeling of artificial leather used in sports with non-symmetric fiber distribution
Mechanical Engineering JournalIn artificial leather, which is used in sports as a fiber-reinforced material, the distribution of the fiber family in the tangential plane is more dispersed than that perpendicular to the tangential plane.

Emerging experimental and computational methods for studying redox‐regulated structural transitions
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Redox reactions can reshape proteins and alter how they behave in cells, with important consequences for health and disease. This review explores emerging experimental and computational approaches for discovering these redox‐sensitive protein switches, revealing their structural effects, and predicting their behavior, opening new opportunities to ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Encapsulins are protein nanocompartments that play an important role in iron storage. In the Myxococcus xanthus encapsulin system, two cargo proteins called EncB and EncC contribute to iron mineralization. Here, we show that EncB and EncC generate iron‐containing minerals with distinct chemical compositions, suggesting that the composition of stored ...

‘Guide and Prejudice’— How Argonautes recognize targets across domains of life
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Argonaute proteins use short nucleic‐acid guides to locate and regulate specific targets across all domains of life. Despite striking diversity—from human gene silencing to bacterial immune defence—all Argonautes share a conserved three‐stage recognition logic: guide‐directed sampling, progressive target pairing with a conformational checkpoint and ...

A Review of Rock Mass Anisotropy in Underground Mining: Characterisation, Modelling, and Monitoring
GeotechnicsAnisotropy is a first-order control on rock mass behaviour in foliated, veined, and fabric-controlled ground, yet it remains underrepresented in routine geotechnical practice.

Computing the damage and fracture energy in a coal mass based on joint density
International Journal of Mining Science and Technology, 2018 Coal joints and cleats are geological discontinuities that are the most important factors that affect the mechanical responses of a coal mass under stress.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Mycobacterial 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA carboxylase uses a mobile biotin‐carrying domain to shuttle a carboxyl group between two catalytic sites, enabling carboxylation of 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA during leucine breakdown. Cryo‐electron microscopy captures the carrier at both sites and reveals an inward loop movement that may prevent futile rebinding to the ...

The Commonwealth constitutional model or models? [PDF]
International Journal of Constitutional Law, 2013 Stephen Gardbaum’s The New Commonwealth Model of Constitutionalism is a must-read in the growing literature on comparative constitutional law and deserves a broad international audience. My question is whether there is a single Commonwealth constitutional model, or, in reality, a set of Commonwealth constitutional models which share common features ...
