FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Encapsulins are protein nanocompartments that play an important role in iron storage. In the Myxococcus xanthus encapsulin system, two cargo proteins called EncB and EncC contribute to iron mineralization. Here, we show that EncB and EncC generate iron‐containing minerals with distinct chemical compositions, suggesting that the composition of stored ...

Discrete choice experiments: An overview on constructing D-optimal and near-optimal choice sets
Heliyon, 2023 Discrete choice experiments (DCEs) are frequently used to estimate and forecast the behavior of an individual's choice. DCEs are based on stated preference; therefore, underlying experimental designs are required for this type of study.

The limits of identification in discrete choice
Games and Economic BehaviorThis paper uncovers tight bounds on the number of preferences permissible in identified random utility models. We show that as the number of alternatives in a discrete choice model becomes large, the fraction of preferences admissible in an identified model rapidly tends to zero. We propose a novel sufficient condition ensuring identification, which is

Discrete Choice Modelling for Transportation [PDF]
, 2001 This paper discusses important developments in discrete choice modeling for transportation applications. Since there have been a number of excellent recent surveys of the discrete choice literature aimed at transportation applications ( see Bhat, 1997 and 2000a), this paper will concentrate on new developments and areas given less weight in recent ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.How do genomes gain new functional parts? In eukaryotes, which tend to evolve under weak selection, much of the genome is junk. Palazzo and Qiu borrow the logic of Markov chains to show how non‐functional DNA becomes functional through the appearance of intermediate states, which arise due to epistasis, buffering, and biochemical messiness, allowing ...

Comparing discrete choice models: some housing market examples [PDF]
, 1984 Introduction: Since the mid nineteen seventies there has been strong interest within variolls branches of social science in the adaptation of the discrete choice modeling methodology towards a wide range of research problems.

Artificial molecular machines and motors—Design and control of nanoscale motion
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Molecules are constantly moving because of thermal fluctuations, but random motion alone cannot be exploited to perform directional tasks. Artificial molecular machines use chemical, electrical, or light energy to bias this motion. Molecular shuttles, rotary motors, and supramolecular pumps illustrate how nanoscale movement can be controlled and ...
