Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Quantum Simulation of a 2D Quasicrystal with Cold Atoms

open access: yesCrystals, 2016
We describe a way to obtain a two-dimensional quasiperiodic tiling with eight-fold symmetry using cold atoms. One can obtain a series of such optical tilings, related by scale transformations, for a series of specific values of the chemical potential of ...

Electron Localization Properties in Graphene [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2006
We study localization properties of the Dirac-like electronic states in monolayers of graphite. In the framework of a general disorder model, we discuss the conditions under which such standard localization effects as the logarithmic temperature-dependent conductivity correction appear to be strongly suppressed, as compared to the case of a two ...

A methionine‐lined active site governs carbocation stabilization and product specificity in a bacterial terpene synthase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals a unique active site enriched in methionine residues and demonstrates that these residues play a critical role by stabilizing carbocation intermediates through novel sulfur–cation interactions. Structure‐guided mutagenesis further revealed variants with significantly altered product profiles, enhancing pseudopterosin formation. These

Wrinkled, rippled and crumpled graphene: an overview of formation mechanism, electronic properties, and applications

open access: yes, 2016
Distinctive from their 1D and 0D counterparts, 2D nanomaterials (2DNs) exhibit surface corrugations (wrinkles and ripples) and crumples. Thermal vibrations, edge instabilities, thermodynamically unstable (interatomic) interactions, strain in 2D crystals,

The Impact of Dipolar Layers on the Electronic Properties of Organic/Inorganic Hybrid Interfaces

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, 2019
The presence of dipolar layers determines the functionality of most technologically relevant interfaces. The present contribution reviews how periodic dipole assemblies modify the properties of such interfaces through so‐called collective electrostatic ...

Polarization‐resolved femtosecond Vis/IR spectroscopy tailored for resolving weak signals in biological samples using minimal sample volume

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Unique biological samples, such as site‐specific mutant proteins, are available only in limited quantities. Here, we present a polarization‐resolved transient infrared spectroscopy setup with referencing to improve signal‐to‐noise tailored towards tracing small signals. We provide an overview of characterizing the excitation conditions for polarization‐

Stacking ensemble learning assisted design of Al-Nb-Ti-V-Zr lightweight high-entropy alloys with high hardness

open access: yesMaterials & Design
To improve the accuracy and efficiency of machine learning models in predicting and designing the mechanical properties and designing of lightweight high-entropy alloys, we have trained multi-classification machine learning models using stacking ensemble
