Activity‐enhancing mutations in an LmrR‐based artificial metalloenzyme destabilize the protein scaffold and alter its conformational plasticity

open access: yesChemBioChem, Accepted Article.
Artificial metalloenzymes (ArM) hold great potential for the sustainable catalysis of complex new‐to‐nature reactions. To efficiently improve the catalytic efficacy of ArMs a rational approach is desirable, requiring detailed molecular insight into their conformational landscape.

Actin Isovariant ACT2‐Mediated Cellular Auxin Homeostasis Regulates Lateral Root Organogenesis in Arabidopsis thaliana

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lateral root (LR) organogenesis is regulated by cellular flux of auxin within pericycle cells, which depends on the membrane distribution and polar localization of auxin carrier proteins. The correct distribution of auxin carrier proteins relies on the intracellular trafficking of these proteins aided by filamentous actin as a track.

Effects of the Dietary Supplement 5α‐Hydroxy‐Laxogenin in the Orchiectomized Rat Model

open access: yesDrug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
The dietary supplement ingredient 5α‐hydroxy‐laxogenin was investigated in the castrated male rat for potential androgenic and anabolic effects. Moreover, androgen receptor binding of 5α‐hydroxy‐laxogenin was modelled by in silico docking. While molecular modelling supports androgen receptor binding, we observed neither androgenic nor anabolic effects ...

Of all shapes and sizes: a theoretical framework for animal‐mediated terrestrial heterogeneity across scales

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Animals redistribute elements throughout their lives by depositing wastes and carcasses. Growing evidence shows that these zoogeochemical processes enhance landscape diversity and heterogeneity worldwide. We provide a descriptive framework for understanding how direct animal depositions (i.e.

The Dual Pathways to Masculinity Threats: The Roles of Social Role Incongruity and Social Connection in Masculine Identity Maintenance Among Gay and Straight Men

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Social Psychology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Humans are hardwired to seek out social connections, as well as monitor for warning signs that their belonging may be at risk. Social identities provide a mechanism through which to monitor belonging, shaping how people understand and see themselves, as well as how they are perceived by others. This large qualitative study (n = 203) presents a

The \u3cem\u3emir-51\u3c/em\u3e Family of MicroRNAs Functions in Diverse Regulatory Pathways in \u3cem\u3eCaenorhbditis elegans\u3c/em\u3e [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The mir-51 family of microRNAs (miRNAs) in C. elegans are part of the deeply conserved miR-99/100 family. While loss of all six family members (mir-51-56) in C. elegans results in embryonic lethality, loss of individual mir-51 family members results in a

Assessing the Impact of Artificial Intelligence and Green Finance on Energy Efficiency: Based on Super‐Efficiency SBM and Tobit Two‐Stage Models

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Conceptual framework. ABSTRACT To enhance energy efficiency (EE) and achieve sustainable development. This study measures EE through super‐efficiency SBM model, and verifies artificial intelligence (AI) and green finance (GF) impact on EE by Tobit model, conclusions as follows: (1) The EE of each region and the country is the spread of the low, with a ...
