Study on Creep Behavior of Wenzhou Remolded Coastal Silt Under One-Dimensional and Triaxial Tests
This study investigates the creep behavior of remolded Wenzhou (China) coastal silt through one-dimensional (1D) and triaxial creep tests. Results show that the secondary consolidation coefficient exhibits a non-monotonic response to stress levels, while

Structural and biochemical analysis of a B12 superbinder
BtuG proteins are vitamin B12 scavengers in Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron, a dominant human gut bacterium. We present crystal structures of three BtuG homologs bound to cobalamin and its precursor cobinamide, revealing picomolar binding affinities, among the highest known for any natural protein.

Influence of geometry on creep and moisture movement of clay, calcium silicate and concrete masonry [PDF]
This investigation involved creep and moisture movement measurements for about six months on 13-course clay (Engineering class B) and calcium silicate brickwork, and 5-course concrete blockwork, consecutively.

How do genomes gain new functional parts? In eukaryotes, which tend to evolve under weak selection, much of the genome is junk. Palazzo and Qiu borrow the logic of Markov chains to show how non‐functional DNA becomes functional through the appearance of intermediate states, which arise due to epistasis, buffering, and biochemical messiness, allowing ...

The Shewanella oneidensis Fic enzyme SoFic targets the switch‐I region of EF‐Tu for AMPylation
Fic enzymes mediate diverse post‐translational modifications across all domains of life, including AMPylation. Prokaryotic EF‐Tu can be AMPylated and deAMPylated by the conserved Fic enzyme SoFic. Structural and biochemical approaches were used to characterize the effect of AMPylation on EF‐Tu, SoFic's enzymatic activities, and the enzyme‐target ...

Study on creep characteristics of fractured rock masses in caved zones with different roof strengths
Objective The caved zone in goaf areas is filled with fractured rock masses, and the strength of these fractured rock masses after collapse serves as a key factor causing differential long-term creep characteristics of the goaf.

Heterodimeric amino acid transporters consist of SLC7 and SLC3 family proteins arranged in a conserved structural organization. They regulate nutrient transport across cell membranes, supporting essential cellular functions. These transporters also contribute to xenobiotic/drug uptake and distribution.
