AAA+ protein unfoldases—the Moirai of the proteome

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
AAA+ unfoldases are essential molecular motors that power protein degradation and disaggregation. This review integrates recent cryo‐electron microscopy (cryo‐EM) structures and single‐molecule biophysical data to reconcile competing models of substrate translocation.

Epigenetic blind spots – the role of DNA methylation dynamics in stem cell‐based models of embryogenesis

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Embryo‐like structures (stembryos) are an innovative tool, but they are hindered by experimental variability and limited developmental potential. DNA methylation is crucial for mammalian development, but its status in stembryo models is poorly characterized.

On the influence of nucleation on the toughness of iPP/EPR blends with different rubber molecular architectures

open access: yeseXPRESS Polymer Letters, 2008
The influence of α-and β-nucleating agents on the fracture performance of two different 32 wt% rubber modified isotactic Polypropylene (iPP) reactor blends is discussed as a function of the phase morphology of the investigated systems ...

Allocating environmental costs among heterogeneous sources: The linear damage equivalent mechanism. [PDF]

open access: yes
A group of firms has to divide the costs associated with environmental damages jointly generated as a by-product of their heterogeneous production activities.

Cooperative mixing induced surface roughening in bilayer metals: a possible novel surface damage mechanism

open access: yes, 2004
Molecular dynamics simulations have been used to study a collective atomic transport phenomenon by repeated Ar$^+$ irradiations in the Ti/Pt interfacial system. The ion-induced injection of surface atoms to the bulk, the ejection of bulk atoms to the top

pH‐mediated activation of the lysosomal arginine sensor SLC38A9

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cells monitor nutrient levels via the lysosomal transporter SLC38A9 to activate the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). This study reveals that SLC38A9 function is regulated by pH. We identified histidine 544 as a critical pH sensor that undergoes conformational changes to control amino acid efflux from lysosomes; therefore, it ...

Time Course of PR of UV-Induced Chromosomal Aberrations and Lethal Damage in G1 Xenopus Cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 1977
Synchronous cultures of early G1 cells were exposed to UV and their ability to photoreactivate lethal and aberrational damage was determined as a function of time following UV exposure.

Residual tail twisting in ascidian larvae is stabilized by asymmetric myofibrils that resist bilateral symmetry restoration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...

The human gut microbiome across the life course

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Despite significant individual variation and continuous change throughout life, the human gut microbiome follows some life stage‐specific trends. This article provides a brief overview of how gut microbiome composition shifts across different phases of life. Created in BioRender. Özkurt, E. (2026) https://BioRender.com/8q4nrnc.

Mechanical Chondrocyte Damage Thresholds

open access: yesASME 2012 Summer Bioengineering Conference, Parts A and B, 2012
Chondrocyte content in articular cartilage is very low. Only 2% to 5% of the tissue volume consists of chondrocytes [1]. Yet, these cells are responsible for maintenance of the tissue. Hence, the loss of chondrocytes that is often occurring at an early stage of cartilage degeneration is detrimental to articular cartilage.
