Emergent participant interaction

open access: yes, 2012
Emergence has the potential to effect complex, creative or open-ended interactions and novel game-play. We report on research into an emergent interactive system.

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.

3D skyrmion strings and their melting dynamics revealed via scalar-field electron tomography

open access: yesCommunications Materials
Two-dimensional skyrmion, a topological spin texture, has been extensively investigated in non-centrosymmetric magnets. It is thermodynamically stable in bulk materials and can extend perpendicularly to the spin-rotating plane, forming the three ...

The ubiquitin‐proteasome system and autophagy as guardians of the cellular proteome

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This Perspective covers the three principles governing the crosstalk between the ubiquitin‐proteasome system and autophagy in cellular proteostasis: (1) a shared ubiquitin code routing substrates via shuttle factors or autophagy receptors; (2) spatial compartmentalization into phase‐separated degradation hubs and organelle‐specific modules (exemplified

An unexpected alternative viologen electron mediator site in tungsten‐containing formate dehydrogenase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
An unexpected alternative interaction site for ethyl viologen was identified in formate dehydrogenase 1 from Methylorubrum extorquens. Combined mutagenesis, kinetic analysis, and docking revealed that aromatic residues near an iron–sulfur cluster enable flavin mononucleotide‐independent electron transfer, offering a framework for engineering improved ...

An emergent wall following behaviour to escape local minima for swarms of agents

open access: yes, 2008
Natural examples of emergent behaviour, in groups due to interactions among the group's individuals, are numerous. Our aim, in this paper, is to use complex emergent behaviour among agents that interact via pair-wise attractive and repulsive potentials ...

Cognitive control: componential or emergent?

open access: yes, 2010
The past twenty-five years have witnessed an increasing awareness of the importance of cognitive control in the regulation of complex behavior. It now sits alongside attention, memory, language and thinking as a distinct domain within cognitive ...

Emerging Sight, Emerging Blindness

open access: yes, 2012
This essay covers two main topics: the role of the “double vi-sion” of the sight/nonsight of blinking in selected fiction of Neil Gaiman and China Miéville, and an examination of the role of blindness and sight surrounding “Molyneux’s question.” In Gaiman’s work “double vision” functions as a synchronic representation of diachronic events.

Microbiome−host proteostasis crosstalk—An emerging perspective on mechanisms and interventions toward healthy longevity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

Interpretation of Emergent Situations in Conceptual Design

open access: yes, 2012
Interpretation process is usually oriented to some purposes, e.g., for identifi cation, for explanation, for inference, for translation, etc. By the interpretation in this paper is understood not only the explanation of a confi guration of signs (symbols)
