Role of Divalent Cations in HIV-1 Replication and Pathogenicity [PDF]
Viruses, 2020 Divalent cations are essential for life and are fundamentally important coordinators of cellular metabolism, cell growth, host-pathogen interactions, and cell death.

Molecular determinants of ASIC1 modulation by divalent cations [PDF]
Scientific ReportsAcid-sensing ion channels (ASICs) are proton-gated cation channels widely expressed in the nervous system. ASIC gating is modulated by divalent cations as well as small molecules; however, the molecular determinants of gating modulation by divalent ...

A Selective Separation Mechanism for Mono/divalent Cations and Properties of a Hollow-Fiber Composite Nanofiltration Membrane Having a Positively Charged Surface [PDF]
Membranes, 2023 Positively charged nanofiltration (NF) technology is considered a green and low-cost method for mono/divalent cation separation. Nevertheless, the separation rejection mechanisms of these NF membranes have yet to be extensively investigated. In this work,

High silica concentration in RO concentrate
Water Resources and Industry, 2022 Silica scaling is one of the major scaling challenges in Reverse Osmosis (RO). The safe operation practice is to keep the silica concentration below 150 mg/L in RO concentrate.

Inhibition of the prokaryotic pentameric ligand-gated ion channel ELIC by divalent cations. [PDF]
PLoS Biology, 2012 The modulation of pentameric ligand-gated ion channels (pLGICs) by divalent cations is believed to play an important role in their regulation in a physiological context.

Calcium decreases cell wall swelling in sweet cherry fruit
Scientific Reports, 2022 Swelling of epidermal cell walls decreases cell-to-cell adhesion and increases cracking susceptibility in sweet cherry. Ca is suggested to decrease cracking susceptibility by crosslinking of cell wall components and, possibly, by decreasing swelling. The
