Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Nonparametric Estimation of the Tail-Dependence Coefficient
A common measure of tail dependence is the so-called tail-dependence coefficient. We present a nonparametric estimator of the tail-dependence coefficient and prove its strong consistency and asymptotic normality in the case of known marginal ...

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Measures of Multivariate Association and Dependence
A pseudo-distance between covariance matrices is used in order to define a class of measures of multivariate association and dependence between the components of a random vector. Some basic properties are proved for this class of measures and their performance is illustrated by example.

Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

Indexes to Measure Dependence between Clinical Diagnostic Tests: A Comparative Study
In many practical situations, clinical diagnostic procedures include two or more biological traits whose outcomes are expressed on a continuous scale and are then dichotomized using a cut point.

How nicotine is administered has evolved from cigarettes to various delivery systems. Assessing perceived dependence on nicotine-containing products now requires accounting for product specificity while allowing comparisons across products and users ...

Hyperosmotic stress induces PARP1‐mediated HPF1‐dependent mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation
Sorbitol‐induced hyperosmotic stress rapidly induces reversible mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation (MARylation) on PARP1 without the signs of genotoxic signaling. We show that PARP1 autoMARylation is HPF1 dependent and forms hydroxylamine‐resistant O‐glycosidic linkages.
