The Astrophysical JournalWe present a numerical model to investigate the role of the ion mass-charge ratio ( m / q ) in determining the flux of MeV–GeV solar energetic particles (SEPs), released impulsively from a compact source near the Sun at 1 au.

Space Climate and Solar Energetic Particles [PDF]
Iranian Journal of Astronomy and AstrophysicsIn this paper, we investigate the effect of solar corona magnetic activities during 11-year periods and energetic particles on global warming. According to atmospheric changes during the past years, the relationship between these two issues should be ...

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

A New Look at Neon-C and SEP-Neon [PDF]
, 2001 Studies of the isotopic composition of neon in lunar soils, meteorites, and interplanetary dust particles have revealed several distinct components. In addition to implanted solar wind, which has a ^(20)Ne/^(22)Ne-abundance ratio of 13.7, there is an ...

FEBS 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

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

Distribution, Evolution, and Origin of the Lunar Energetic Particles
Space: Science & TechnologyVarious kinds of energetic particles can directly and continuously interact with the lunar surface since there is no atmosphere and no global magnetic field on the Moon. How energetic particles distribute on the Moon and what are their roles in the space

Peroxidasin enables melanoma immune escape by inhibiting natural killer cell cytotoxicity
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Peroxidasin (PXDN) is secreted by melanoma cells and binds the NK cell receptor NKG2D, thereby suppressing NK cell activation and cytotoxicity. PXDN depletion restores NKG2D signaling and enables effective NK cell–mediated melanoma killing. These findings identify PXDN as a previously unrecognized immune evasion factor and a potential target to improve

Energetic Particles from Quasi-separatrix Layers and Current Sheets at the Sun
The Astrophysical JournalQuasi-separatrix layers (QSLs) at the Sun are created in regions where channels of open magnetic flux have footpoints near regions of large-scale closed magnetic flux. These regions show rapid changes in curvature and field strength.
