Genome-wide screen identifies novel factors for surface protein cross-wall trafficking and cell envelope homeostasis in Staphylococcus aureus [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology
Cell-wall-anchored surface proteins are integral components of gram-positive bacterial cell envelopes. The trafficking of many surface proteins carrying a YSIRK/G-S signal peptide is synchronized with cell envelope biogenesis during cell division ...

Cross-waves and pulsating flows in the side-channel spillway – an experimental approach [PDF]

Journal of Water and Land Development, 2023
Potentially hazardous side-channels of complex geometry need to be investigated using detailed hydraulic physical models. This study aims to analyse the cross-waves pattern and pulsating flow using a side-channel spillway physical model.

A Modified Elastic Foundation Beam Method for Analyzing Lateral Wall Deformation in Excavations with Cross Wall

Advances in Civil Engineering, 2021
Cross walls have been used as alternative auxiliary measures to protect buildings in some areas of Asia. Realizing the inadequacy of the classical Winkler foundation to predict the deflection of the diaphragm wall with cross wall, a modified Winkler ...

The Neurospora crassa dfg5 and dcw1 genes encode α-1,6-mannanases that function in the incorporation of glycoproteins into the cell wall. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
The covalent cross-linking of cell wall proteins into the cell wall glucan/chitin matrix is an important step in the biogenesis of the fungal cell wall.

Septal secretion of protein A in Staphylococcus aureus requires SecA and lipoteichoic acid synthesis

eLife, 2018
Surface proteins of Staphylococcus aureus are secreted across septal membranes for assembly into the bacterial cross-wall. This localized secretion requires the YSIRK/GXXS motif signal peptide, however the mechanisms supporting precursor trafficking are ...

An Aerial–Wall Robotic Insect That Can Land, Climb, and Take Off from Vertical Surfaces

Research, 2023
Insects that can perform flapping-wing flight, climb on a wall, and switch smoothly between the 2 locomotion regimes provide us with excellent biomimetic models.

Age-related differences in integrin expression in peripheral blood lymphocytes

Immunity & Ageing, 2010
Alpha integrins play an important role in cell to cell and cell to extra-cellular matrix interactions required for an effective T-lymphocyte-mediated immune response, however little is known about age related differences in expression of alpha integrins ...

Modelling of the dilated sagittal sinuses found in multiple sclerosis suggests increased wall stiffness may be a contributing factor

Scientific Reports, 2022
The cross-sectional area of the superior sagittal sinus (SSS) is larger in multiple sclerosis than normal and correlates with disease severity and progression. The sinus could be enlarged due to a decrease in the pressure difference between the lumen and
