A methionine‐lined active site governs carbocation stabilization and product specificity in a bacterial terpene synthase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals a unique active site enriched in methionine residues and demonstrates that these residues play a critical role by stabilizing carbocation intermediates through novel sulfur–cation interactions. Structure‐guided mutagenesis further revealed variants with significantly altered product profiles, enhancing pseudopterosin formation. These

Experimental study on the impact of wide graded debris flow on check dam in high altitude area

open access: yesShuiwen dizhi gongcheng dizhi
The impact force of debris flow is the main cause of damage and destruction of check dam. In high altitude area, due to high mountains and deep valleys, serious physical weathering of surface materials, a wide range of source materials gradation, high ...

An Assessment Method for Debris Flow Dam Formation in Taiwan

open access: yesEarth Sciences Research Journal, 2018
Debris flows in tributaries rush into and block the main branches of rivers and often result in serious hazards. Dam failures cause large floods in the downstream area and can lead to fatalities and property damage.

Analysis on disaster characteristics and prevention measures of the post-fire debris flow in Dianchichang gully, Xichang of Sichuan Province

open access: yesZhongguo dizhi zaihai yu fangzhi xuebao, 2022
Post-fire debris flow is a special torrent containing a large amount of loose material, which is closely related to forest fire. Its characteristics are significantly different from the conventional debris flow.

Numerical simulation of debris flows triggered from the Strug rock fall source area, W Slovenia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The Strug landslide was triggered in December 2001 as a rockslide, followed by a rock fall. In 2002, about 20 debris flows were registered in the Kosec village; they were initiated in the Strug rock fall source area.

In vitro models of cancer‐associated fibroblast heterogeneity uncover subtype‐specific effects of CRISPR perturbations

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Development of therapies targeting cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) necessitates preclinical model systems that faithfully represent CAF–tumor biology. We established an in vitro coculture system of patient‐derived pancreatic CAFs and tumor cell lines and demonstrated its recapitulation of primary CAF–tumor biology with single‐cell transcriptomics ...

Assessment of debris flow risk in Mentougou District, Beijing, based on runout of potential debris flow

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science
Debris flow is a prevalent geological disaster in Beijing, particularly in the Mentougou District, situated in the mountainous southwestern region of Beijing City. The past irrational exploitation of minerals has led to a substantial accumulation of slag,

ATF4‐mediated stress response as a therapeutic vulnerability in chordoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We screened 5 chordoma cell lines against 100+ inhibitors of epigenetic and metabolic pathways and kinases and identified halofuginone, a tRNA synthetase inhibitor. Mechanistically halofuginone induces an integrated stress response, with eIF2alpha phosphorylation, activation of ATF4 and its target genes CHOP, ASNS, INHBE leading to cell death ...

Analysis of debris-flow recordings in an instrumented basin: confirmations and new findings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
On 24 August 2006, a debris flow took place in the Moscardo Torrent, a basin of the Eastern Italian Alps instrumented for debris-flow monitoring. The debris flow was recorded by two seismic networks located in the lower part of the basin and on the ...

Dammarenediol II enhances etoposide‐induced apoptosis by targeting O‐GlcNAc transferase and Akt/GSK3β/mTOR signaling in liver cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Etoposide induces DNA damage, activating p53‐dependent apoptosis via caspase‐3/7, which cleaves PARP1. Dammarenediol II enhances this apoptotic pathway by suppressing O‐GlcNAc transferase activity, further decreasing O‐GlcNAcylation. The reduction in O‐GlcNAc levels boosts p53‐driven apoptosis and influences the Akt/GSK3β/mTOR signaling pathway ...
