Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.

Cost-efficiency of urban heating strategies – Modelling scale effects of low-energy building heat supply

open access: yesEnergy Strategy Reviews, 2017
There is now a strong demand in Sweden for construction of new low energy buildings (LEB) areas. There are essentially three options for heat supply to these LEB areas: “individual”, “on-site” and “large heat network” supply.

Individual Heat Substations Integrated with Heat Pumps for District Heating Systems in Ukraine

open access: yesChemical Engineering Transactions, 2021
Energy systems around the world require a sustainable way for energy supply that does not add carbon to the atmosphere and thus does not enlarge the greenhouse effect, which is seen nowadays as the main cause of climate change. Urban housing consumes the

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Emerging experimental and computational methods for studying redox‐regulated structural transitions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Redox reactions can reshape proteins and alter how they behave in cells, with important consequences for health and disease. This review explores emerging experimental and computational approaches for discovering these redox‐sensitive protein switches, revealing their structural effects, and predicting their behavior, opening new opportunities to ...

Thermoeconomic approach for the analysis of low temperature district heating systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In this paper a thermoeconomic analysis of district heating systems is performed. The analysis aims at comparing possible options to supply heat to the users, using low temperature networks.

District heating supply via large-scale heat pumps using wastewater treatment plant effluent and electrolysis waste heat: A techno-economic analysis of potential synergies

open access: yesEnergy Conversion and Management: X
Space heating and domestic hot water account for roughly one third of final energy consumption in Europe, with largely fossil-based district heating supply providing around 11.7% of buildings-related heat demand.

Functional comparison of EncB and EncC cargo proteins in iron storage within the Myxococcus xanthus encapsulin

open access: yesFEBS 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 ...

Development of a user-friendly mobile app for the national level promotion of the 4th generation district heating

open access: yesInternational Journal of Sustainable Energy Planning and Management, 2019
The consumers are considered to play one of the most significant roles in the district heating transition process towards the 4th generation.  Unfortunately, the lack of information and widespread consumer ignorance of interconnections and dependencies ...
