Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

Audio descriptors and descriptor schemes in the context of MPEG-7
, 1999 Sound content description is one of the aims of the MPEG-7 initiative. Although MPEG-7 focuses on indexing and retrieval of audio, there are other sound content-based processing applications waiting to be developed once we have a robust set of descriptors and structures for putting them into relation and for expressing semantic concerns about sound ...

Spherical harmonics coeffcients for ligand-based virtual screening of cyclooxygenase inhibitors [PDF]
, 2011 Background: Molecular descriptors are essential for many applications in computational chemistry, such as ligand-based similarity searching. Spherical harmonics have previously been suggested as comprehensive descriptors of molecular structure and ...

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

Sequential Complexity as a Descriptor for Musical Similarity [PDF]
, 2014 We propose string compressibility as a descriptor of temporal struc-ture in audio, for the purpose of determining musical similarity. Our descriptors are based on computing track-wise compression rates of quan-tised audio features, using multiple ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...

Computation of least order solutions of linear rational equations [PDF]
, 2004 We propose a numerically reliable approach for computing solutions of least McMillan order of linear equations with rational matrix coefficients. The main computational ingredients are the orthogonal reduction of the associated system matrix pencil to a ...
