Artificial molecular machines and motors—Design and control of nanoscale motion

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Molecules are constantly moving because of thermal fluctuations, but random motion alone cannot be exploited to perform directional tasks. Artificial molecular machines use chemical, electrical, or light energy to bias this motion. Molecular shuttles, rotary motors, and supramolecular pumps illustrate how nanoscale movement can be controlled and ...

The Dark Side of Social Media: Analysing Dark Pattern Combinations and Their Impacts

open access: yesIJIE (Indonesian Journal of Informatics Education)
In today’s digital era, technology is essential in daily life, transforming interactions and activities. However, the rise of “Dark Patterns - deceptive design practices in websites and apps raises significant ethical concerns. Originally defined by User

The ubiquitin system in normal and infected germinal center B cells

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The ubiquitin system plays a central role in germinal center (GC) B cells, influencing differentiation to long‐lived memory B cells. Oncogenic gammaherpesviruses gain access to memory B cells by establishing latency in GC B cells. Mapping ubiquitin mechanisms in normal and infected GC B cells will define specific molecular circuits in B cells germane ...

Dark patterns: How design tricks manipulate users [PDF]

open access: yes
In the vast landscape of the internet, where convenience and user engagement reign supreme, a shadowy realm lurks beneath the surface—dark patterns. These patterns are a digital maze designed to subtly manipulate internet users.

Why Don’t You Let the Light In? Developing Radiant Patterns for a Critical Game Aiming Player Empowerment

open access: yesJournal on Interactive Systems
The exponential growth of the digital games industry has intensified the use of Deceptive Patterns (DPs) – design strategies that, while profitable, undermine players’ psychological well-being by frustrating their needs for autonomy, competence, and ...

SPECTRAL AND SPATIAL SELECTIVITY OF LUMINANCE VISION IN REEF FISH

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2014
Luminance vision has high spatial resolution and is used for form vision and texture discrimination. In humans, birds and bees luminance channel is spectrally selective – it depends on the signals of the long-wavelength sensitive photoreceptors (bees) or

Invisible but not inaccessible—Revealing transient oligomers formed by intrinsically disordered proteins with solution NMR and complementary methods

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Transient oligomers formed by intrinsically disordered proteins may be ‘invisible’ to direct detection yet remain accessible to solution NMR through equilibrium‐exchange measurements and pressure‐jump experiments. Complementary methods report on mass, stoichiometry, selected distance distributions, morphology, and internal packing.

Dark Patterns in Digital Design: A Review and Assessment via Risk, Trust and Diversity Scores

open access: yesITEGAM-JETIA
Digital platforms increasingly shape everyday life, yet their design choices often undermine consumer welfare using dark patterns which are deceptive interfaces that manipulate users’ decisions.

Ultraviolet inflorescence cues enhance attractiveness of inflorescence odour to Culex pipiens mosquitoes.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Inflorescence patterns of ultraviolet (UV) absorption and UV-reflection are attractive to many insect pollinators. To understand whether UV inflorescence cues affect the attraction of nectar-foraging mosquitoes, we worked with the common house mosquito ...

The role of miR‐335‐5p in the redifferentiation of BRAF p.V600E thyroid cancers

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The BRAF p.V600E mutation promotes thyroid cancer dedifferentiation and radioiodine resistance. Using a network approach, we identified miR‐335‐5p as a key regulator of BRAF‐mutated thyroid tumors. Restoring miR‐335‐5p increased thyroid‐specific gene expression and iodine uptake in cells and organoids.
