Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

Adaptation of the inferior temporal neurons and efficient visual processing

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience
Numerous studies examining the responses of individual neurons in the inferior temporal (IT) cortex have revealed their characteristics such as two-dimensional or three-dimensional shape tuning, objects, or category selectivity.

Energy-Efficient Code by Refactoring [PDF]

open access: yesSoftwaretechnik-Trends, 2013
The rising number of mobile devices increase the interest in longer battery durations. To increase battery duration, researchers try to improve e.g. different hardware components, such as processors and GPS for lower energy consumption. Frequently, software optimization possibilities to save energy are forgotten.

The (Glg)ABCs of cyanobacteria: modelling of glycogen synthesis and functional divergence of glycogen synthases in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

Bandwidth-Efficient Wireless Multimedia Communications [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Commencing with the brief history of mobile communications and the portrayal of the basic concept of wireless multimedia communications, the implications of Shannon’s theorems regarding joint source and channel coding for wireless communications are ...

More gamma, more predictions: Gamma-synchronization supports the integration of classical receptive field inputs with predictions from the surround.

open access: yesFrontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2016
During visual stimulation, neurons in visual cortex often exhibit rhythmic and synchronous firing in the gamma-frequency (30-90 Hz) band. Whether this phenomenon plays a functional role during visual processing is not fully clear and remains heavily ...

Tau acetylation at K331 has limited impact on tau pathology in vivo

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We mapped tau post‐translational modifications in humanized MAPT knock‐in mice and in amyloid‐bearing double knock‐in mice. Acetylation within the repeat domain, particularly around K331, showed modest increases under amyloid pathology. To test functional relevance, we generated MAPTK331Q knock‐in mice.

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Highly efficient video compression using quadtree structures and improved techniques for motion representation and entropy coding

open access: yes, 2022
S.206-209This paper describes a novel video coding scheme that can be considered as a generalization of the block-based hybrid video coding approach of H.264/AVC.

Efficient and adaptive sensory codes [PDF]

open access: yesNature Neuroscience, 2019
The ability to adapt to changes in stimulus statistics is a hallmark of sensory systems. Here, we develop a theoretical framework that can account for the dynamics of adaptation from an information-processing perspective. We use this framework to optimize and analyze adaptive sensory codes, and we show that codes optimized for stationary environments ...
