FEBS 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 ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The physical dimensions and shape of bacterial cells define the surface area available to acquire nutrients and the volume available for synthesizing proteins and DNA. Here, we use computational systems biology to decode the importance of cell geometry as a major determinant of prokaryotic phenotype, including growth rate and metabolic efficiency. This

, 2014 Since the end of the 20th century it has been increasingly realised that the use, or production, of many energetic materials leads to the release of substances which are harmful to both humans and the environment. To address this, the principles of green

Synthesis of metal-organic frameworks for energetic applications
, 2018 S.102.1-102.6Despite the fact that MOFs have been investigated in several application fields, the use of MOFs as energetic materials has not been fully explored yet. MOFs can be potential energetic materials because of their high densities and high heats

Systematic numerical investigation of the role of hierarchy in heterogeneous bio-inspired materials [PDF]
, 2012 It is well known that hierarchical structure is an important feature in biological materials to optimise various properties, including mechanical ones. It is however still unclear how these hierarchical architectures can improve material characteristics,

Electron transfer between complexes III and IV in S. cerevisiae mitochondrial membranes
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation in S. cerevisiae mitoplasts is limited by complex IV catalytic capacity, rather than two‐dimensional cytochrome c diffusion. At physiological cytochrome c : supercomplex ratios at salinity equivalent to that of 20 mm monovalent salt, activity is maximized, indicating that this low ionic strength accurately mimics

FirePhysChemThis study presents a double modification strategy to enhance hydroxyl‑terminated polybutadiene (HTPB) properties as an energetic binder. HTPB was chemically nitrated to obtain nitro-HTPB (NHTPB), then blended with nitrocellulose (NC) at different ratios

Recent Advances in Energetic Materials in Sweden, Especially at the FOI
, 2011 During the twentieth century, few breakthroughs occurred in energetic materials. Hexanitrobenzene was judged only 25 years ago to be the theoretically best explosive. Hexanitrohexaazaisowurtzitane (CL-20) later proved to be 20% better than octogen and 6%
