Emissions Reductions and Economic Feasibility of China's Solar Thermal Power Industry After the Introduction of Chinese Certified Emission Reduction Policy

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To promote the development of renewable energy, China re‐implemented the Chinese Certified Emission Reduction (CCER) policy in 2023. This study explores certificated CO2 and air pollutants (i.e., NOx, SO2 and particulate matter (PM)) emissions reductions from China's solar thermal power (STP) industry at national scale and conducts the ...

Edible Antifungal Coatings Based on Litchi Chinensis Seed Starch Enriched With Pericarp Procyanidins for the Postharvest Preservation of Strawberries

open access: yesFood Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Lychee starch coatings enriched with procyanidins showed strong antifungal activity and effectively preserved strawberry quality postharvest, reducing weight loss, decay, and senescence. This highlights their potential as a sustainable natural alternative for shelf‐life extension and fungal control in fresh produce.

EF-hand calcium-binding proteins

Current Opinion in Structural Biology, 2000
The EF-hand motif is the most common calcium-binding motif found in proteins. Several high-resolution structures containing different metal ions bound to EF-hand sites have given new insight into the modulation of their binding affinities. Recently determined structures of members of several newly identified protein families that contain the EF-hand ...

EF-Hand Mimicking Calcium Binding Polymer

Biomacromolecules, 2016
There are four EF-hand polypeptides in calmodulin, a natural ubiquitous calcium binding protein that activates the enzymes involved in Ca(2+)-mediated signal transduction. An EF-hand polypeptide has six carboxylate functional groups in the middle loop region between two rigid polypeptides. In this study, a calcium binding polymer (CBP) with a structure

Prediction of EF‐hand calcium‐binding proteins and analysis of bacterial EF‐hand proteins

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, 2006
AbstractThe EF‐hand protein with a helix–loop–helix Ca2+ binding motif constitutes one of the largest protein families and is involved in numerous biological processes. To facilitate the understanding of the role of Ca2+ in biological systems using genomic information, we report, herein, our improvement on the pattern search method for the ...

Classification and evolution of EF-hand proteins

Biometals, 1998
Forty-five distinct subfamilies of EF-hand proteins have been identified. They contain from two to eight EF-hands that are recognizable by amino acid sequence as being statistically similar to other EF-hand domains. All proteins within one subfamily are congruent to one another, i.e.

Chimeric HTH motifs based on EF-hands

JBIC Journal of Biological Inorganic Chemistry, 2001
The design of a new peptide construct from two structurally equivalent basis motifs is reported. A chimera was designed from the helical regions of a helix-turn-helix (HTH) domain, incorporating the consensus EF-hand Ca-binding loop at the turn. Two 33-residue peptides were constructed: one (P3, designed) includes the 12-residue consensus EF-hand loop,

EF-hands embrace

Nature Structural biology, 1997
The fifth EF-hand, in linear amino acid sequence, of the small subunit of calpain reveals a new trick in the EF-repertoire — dimerization by EF-embrace.

EF-hands reach out

Nature Structural Biology, 1996
The difference in amino-acid sequence and inferred molecular mechanisms between the pair of EF-hands in BM-40 and those of other EF-hand proteins force us to reconsider the evolutionary and functional relationships among the members of this diverse family of proteins.
