The anti‐CRISPR protein AcrIE8.1 inhibits the type I‐E CRISPR‐Cas system by directly binding to the Cascade subunit Cas11

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we present the structure of AcrIE8.1, a previously uncharacterized anti‐CRISPR protein that inhibits the type I‐E CRISPR‐Cas system. Through a combination of structural and biochemical analyses, we demonstrate that AcrIE8.1 directly binds to the Cas11 subunit of the Cascade complex to inhibit the CRISPR‐Cas system.

Fine-Grained Human Hair Segmentation Using a Text-to-Image Diffusion Model

open access: yesIEEE Access
Human hair segmentation is essential for face recognition and for achieving natural transformation of style transfer. However, it remains a challenging task due to the diverse appearances and complex patterns of hair in image. In this study, we propose a

A Cre‐dependent lentiviral vector for neuron subtype‐specific expression of large proteins

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We designed a versatile and modular lentivector comprising a Cre‐dependent switch and self‐cleaving 2A peptide and tested it for co‐expression of GFP and a 2.8 kb gene of interest (GOI) in mouse cortical parvalbumin (PV+) interneurons and midbrain dopamine (TH+) neurons.

When accuracy rates and mean response times lead to false conclusions: A simulation study based on the diffusion model [PDF]

open access: yesTutorials in Quantitative Methods for Psychology, 2020
The diffusion model belongs to the class of sequential sampling models. Based on information about RT distributions from binary tasks, the model allows the separation of distinct processes underlying decision-making. With the present simulation study, we

Structural insights into lacto‐N‐biose I recognition by a family 32 carbohydrate‐binding module from Bifidobacterium bifidum

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Bifidobacterium bifidum establishes symbiosis with infants by metabolizing lacto‐N‐biose I (LNB) from human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs). The extracellular multidomain enzyme LnbB drives this process, releasing LNB via its catalytic glycoside hydrolase family 20 (GH20) lacto‐N‐biosidase domain.

Mechanisms of parasite‐mediated disruption of brain vessels

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Parasites can affect the blood vessels of the brain, often causing serious neurological problems. This review explains how different parasites interact with and disrupt these vessels, what this means for brain health, and why these processes matter. Understanding these mechanisms may help us develop better ways to prevent or treat brain infections in ...

Using Reaction Times and Binary Responses to Estimate Psychophysical Performance: An Information Theoretic Analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2014
As the strength of a stimulus increases, the proportions of correct binary responses increases, which define the psychometric function. Simultaneously, mean reaction times (RT) decrease, which collectively define the chronometric function. However, RTs

Structural centrality of networks can improve the diffusion-based recommendation algorithm

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2022
The recommendation system has become an indispensable information technology in the real world. The recommendation system based on the diffusion model has been widely used because of its simplicity, scalability, interpretability, and many other ...

Consistency Problems for Jump-Diffusion Models

open access: yes, 2005
In this paper consistency problems for multi-factor jump-diffusion models, where the jump parts follow multivariate point processes are examined. First the gap between jump-diffusion models and generalized Heath-Jarrow-Morton (HJM) models is bridged.
