Chemo-mechanical modeling of artificially and naturally bonded soils [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Chemo-mechanical effects are known to be significant in a number of applications in modern geomechanics, ranging from slope stability assessment to soil improvement and CO2 sequestration.

An intracellular transporter mitigates the CO2‐induced decline in iron content in Arabidopsis shoots

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study identifies a gene encoding a transmembrane protein, MIC, which contributes to the reduction of shoot Fe content observed in plants under elevated CO2. MIC is a putative Fe transporter localized to the Golgi and endosomal compartments. Its post‐translational regulation in roots may represent a potential target for improving plant nutrition ...

ABAQUS Subroutine-Based Implementation of a Fractional Consolidation Model for Saturated Soft Soils

open access: yesFractal and Fractional
This paper presents a finite element implementation of a fractional rheological consolidation model in ABQUS, in which the fractional Merchant model governs the mechanical behavior of the soil skeleton, and the water flow is controlled by the fractional ...

Structural insights into lacto‐N‐biose I recognition by a family 32 carbohydrate‐binding module from Bifidobacterium bifidum

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Bifidobacterium bifidum establishes symbiosis with infants by metabolizing lacto‐N‐biose I (LNB) from human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs). The extracellular multidomain enzyme LnbB drives this process, releasing LNB via its catalytic glycoside hydrolase family 20 (GH20) lacto‐N‐biosidase domain.

Galnon facilitates extinction of morphine-conditioned place preference but also potentiates the consolidation process. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Learning and memory systems are intimately involved in drug addiction. Previous studies suggest that galanin, a neuropeptide that binds G-protein coupled receptors, plays essential roles in the encoding of memory.

Towards a process simulation tool for the laseer assisted tape placement process [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
A combined optical and thermal model for the laser assisted tape placement process is presented. The optical model adopts a ray tracing procedure, based on the Fresnel equations, to predict the incident heat flux on the tape and substrate near the nip ...

A Numerical and Experimental Approach for Modeling Porosity Due to Entrapped Air and Volatiles Off-Gassing During Manufacturing of Composite Structures [PDF]

open access: yes
High performance composite structures have strict requirements regarding acceptable levels of porosity. The impact can be significant on mechanical performance and mitigating the growth of voids can be a challenge given the complexity of the problem. The

Molecular bases of circadian magnesium rhythms across eukaryotes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Circadian rhythms in intracellular [Mg2+] exist across eukaryotic kingdoms. Central roles for Mg2+ in metabolism suggest that Mg2+ rhythms could regulate daily cellular energy and metabolism. In this Perspective paper, we propose that ancestral prokaryotic transport proteins could be responsible for mediating Mg2+ rhythms and posit a feedback model ...

Crosstalk between the ribosome quality control‐associated E3 ubiquitin ligases LTN1 and RNF10

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Loss of the E3 ligase LTN1, the ubiquitin‐like modifier UFM1, or the deubiquitinating enzyme UFSP2 disrupts endoplasmic reticulum–ribosome quality control (ER‐RQC), a pathway that removes stalled ribosomes and faulty proteins. This disruption may trigger a compensatory response to ER‐RQC defects, including increased expression of the E3 ligase RNF10 ...
