Thermal Behavior of Green Cellulose-Filled Thermoplastic Elastomer Polymer Blends

Molecules, 2020
A recently developed cellulose hybrid chemical treatment consists of two steps: solvent exchange (with ethanol or hexane) and chemical grafting of maleic anhydride (MA) on the surface of fibers.

An isoform of 14‐3‐3 protein regulates transbilayer lipid movement at the plasma membrane

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Loss of 14‐3‐3ζ in CHO cells confers resistance to exogenous phosphatidylserine (PS) and impairs endocytosis‐independent inward flip‐flop of fluorescent PS at the plasma membrane. RNAi‐mediated knockdown reproduces this defect, while no additive effect is seen in ATP11C‐deficient cells.

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

FEBS 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 ...

Structure‐forward targeting of claudins with synthetic binders

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Claudins form the paracellular barriers between epithelial and endothelial tissues at tight junctions and are targets for molecular binders with the goal of modulating barrier permeability. Claudin‐binding molecules are relevant in drug delivery or in altering claudin interactions with disease‐causing proteins.

Pinecone Powder as a Functional Biofiller for Natural Rubber Composites: Structure-Property Relationships and Potential Applications

Journal of Natural Fibers
Green rubber biocomposites provide a sustainable alternative to conventional rubber by incorporating natural fillers with lower environmental impact. This study examines pinecone powder from Scots Pine (Pinus sylvestris) as a renewable filler for natural

Electrooxidation and Electroreduction of Anthraquinone Chromophores at the Platinum Electrode

International Journal of Electrochemical Science, 2019
This study investigates the electrochemical behavior of anthraquinone dyes in non-aqueous solution. Cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry were used to estimate the electrochemical parameters of electrooxidation and electroreduction at the

Discerning protein pools by selective staining with self‐labeling tags

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cell surface proteins have an intra‐ and extracellular pool. Combining genetic fusion to self‐labeling tags that can be addressed with small molecule fluorophores allows separating these pools. We highlight recent developments and techniques for state‐of‐the‐art interrogation of cell surface proteins in the complex tissue setting.
