Remote sensing and GIS-based forest fire risk zone mapping: The case of Manisa, Turkey

Turkish Journal of Forestry, 2020
The aim of this research is to map the potential forest fire risk zones using various landscape analysis techniques in Manisa province, Turkey. Forest fire, which is defined as an ecological disaster caused by natural processes or as a result of human ...

Directed evolution of enzymes at the crossroads of tradition and innovation

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
An iterative cycle of data‐driven enzyme optimization comprising four stages: genetic diversification of a template enzyme, expression of protein variants, high‐throughput evaluation, and machine‐learning‐guided redesign of the next variant library.

From energy provision to protein synthesis: Tunnelling nanotubes as mediators of intercellular metabolic cooperation in cancer

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The cytoskeleton‐mediated transport of mitochondria via tunnelling nanotubes restores respiration, increases ATP production, rescues cells from apoptosis, activates the AKT/mTOR signalling pathway, promotes cell migration and invasiveness, contributes to cancer progression and treatment resistance.

Environmental determinants of bryophyte community change over time

Ecosphere
Environmental factors mediating community change over time have been well documented for vascular plants, but not for their non‐vascular relatives, bryophytes.

Ecological drivers of tree diversity and distribution along an elevation zone in Mamley watershed of Sikkim, India

Geology, Ecology, and Landscapes
Tree species diversity plays a crucial role in forest structure. This study assessed the species diversity, floristic composition, and vegetation structure along three elevation zones (lower elevation (LE) (2100 m)) and identified the ecological drivers ...

Spatial dynamics of built-up land development prediction based on cellular automata markov chain in tsunami prone areas of Ternate Island, Indonesia [PDF]

BIO Web of Conferences
Ternate Island's coastal geography makes it highly susceptible to tsunamis, and increasing built-up land intensifies this risk. This study analyzes the spatial dynamics of built-up land development in tsunami-prone areas using land cover data from 2005 ...

ATZ‐1 promotes DNA replication efficiency to maintain normal meiotic function

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Absence of ATZ‐1 interferes with meiotic DNA replication and cell cycle function via CHK‐1. This causes downstream defects associated with DNA damage and genomic integrity. Taken together, this study suggests that ATZ‐1 influences DNA replication efficiency and cell cycle function to maintain normal meiotic function.

Responses of Soybean to Oxygen Deficiency and Elevated Root-zone Carbon Dioxide Concentration [PDF]

Annals of Botany, 2003
Root flooding is damaging to the growth of crop plants such as soybean (Glycine max L.). Field flooding for 3 d often results in leaf chlorosis, defoliation, cessation of growth and plant death. These effects have been widely attributed solely to a lack of oxygen in the root-zone.

Adenosine triphosphate as a modulator of protein interactions and stability

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
ATP is best known as the cell's energy currency, but it also shapes how proteins fold, interact, aggregate and form biomolecular condensates. This review explains the emerging physical principles behind these effects, including weak binding to charged protein regions, magnesium‐dependent behaviour and concentration‐dependent control of protein ...

Identification and characterisation of calcitonin receptor isoforms expressed in glioblastoma derived glioma stem and U‐87 MG cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Glioblastoma cells express calcitonin receptor variants (CT receptor isoforms) that may help them survive stress. Using qPCR, transcript‐specific long‐read nanopore sequencing, immunofluorescence co‐localisation and comparative sequence analysis, this study identifies a novel alternatively spliced CALCR transcript that encodes the CTb receptor isoform ...
