Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

Projected Rapid Habitat Expansion of Tropical Seagrass Species in the Mediterranean Sea as Climate Change Progresses

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
During the last 150 years, the tropical seagrass species Halophila stipulacea has established itself in the southern and eastern parts of the Mediterranean Sea.

An upstream open reading frame regulates expression of the mitochondrial protein Slm35 and mitophagy flux

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals how the mitochondrial protein Slm35 is regulated in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The authors identify stress‐responsive DNA elements and two upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in the 5′ untranslated region of SLM35. One uORF restricts translation, and its mutation increases Slm35 protein levels and mitophagy.

Multi-generational fidelity, ecological and social determinants of roosting in a cooperatively breeding bird (Argya squamiceps)

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science
Sleep is an important but overlooked component of animal behaviour, especially its social and conservation facets. Here, we use 15 years of data to comprehensively describe the roosting behaviour of cooperatively breeding birds and test hypotheses about ...

Observations of positive sea surface temperature trends in the steadily shrinking Dead Sea [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2018
Increasing warming of steadily shrinking Dead Sea surface water compensates for surface water cooling (due to increasing evaporation) and even causes observed positive Dead Sea sea surface temperature trends.

The Palestinian Right to Exploit the Dead Sea Coastline for Tourism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Scholars in the past decades have paid little attention to the exploitation of the Dead Sea coastline for tourism purposes. The Dead Sea’s Israeli and Jordanian shores are famous touristic attractions at the basis of a quickly expanding industry.

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

The (Glg)ABCs of cyanobacteria: modelling of glycogen synthesis and functional divergence of glycogen synthases in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

Balaam In The Dead Sea Scrolls

open access: yes, 2008
This chapter first explores the biblical texts of Numbers 22–24 found at Qumran in order to see if the development found in the LXX is already present. Secondly, it touches on the well known messianic interpretation of the fourth oracle, i.e., Num 24:17, found in different nonbiblical texts from Qumran. 4QNum b is a particularly interesting manuscript.
