Boltzmann Entropy: Generalization and Applications [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Physics, 1997
The object of the paper is to generalize Boltzmann entropy to takeaccount of the subjective nature of a system. The generalized entropyor relative entropy so obtained has been applied to an ecologicalsystem leading to some interesting new results in violation ofexisting physical laws. The entropy was further developed to derive ageneralized macroscopic

In situ molecular organization and heterogeneity of the Legionella Dot/Icm T4SS

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present a nearly complete in situ model of the Legionella Dot/Icm type IV secretion system, revealing its central secretion channel and identifying new components. Using cryo‐electron tomography with AI‐based modeling, our work highlights the structure, variability, and mechanism of this complex nanomachine, advancing understanding of bacterial ...

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

Entropy Maximization and Instability of Uniformly Magnetized Plasma

open access: yes, 2012
A regime where a uniformly magnetized plasma could be unstable to a spatial perturbation in the magnetic field is explored. In this regime, a uniformly magnetized state does not maximize the entropy.

Generalized graph entropies

open access: yesComplexity, 2011
AbstractThis article deals with generalized entropies for graphs. These entropies result from applying information measures to a graph using various schemes for defining probability distributions over the elements (e.g., vertices) of the graph. We introduce a new class of generalized measures, develop their properties, compute the measures for selected

Cell wall target fragment discovery using a low‐cost, minimal fragment library

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
LoCoFrag100 is a fragment library made up of 100 different compounds. Similarity between the fragments is minimized and 10 different fragments are mixed into a single cocktail, which is soaked to protein crystals. These crystals are analysed by X‐ray crystallography, revealing the binding modes of the bound fragment ligands.

Entropy Generation on MHD Slip Flow Over a Stretching Cylinder with Heat Generation/Absorption

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Mechanics and Engineering, 2018
In the present study, we have investigated entropy generation on a magnetohydrodynamic fluid flow and heat transfer over a stretching cylinder with a porous medium in slip flow regime. A uniform heat source and radiation is also considered.

Entropy Generation Methodology for Defect Analysis of Electronic and Mechanical Components—A Review

open access: yesEntropy, 2020
Understanding the defect characterization of electronic and mechanical components is a crucial step in diagnosing component lifetime. Technologies for determining reliability, such as thermal modeling, cohesion modeling, statistical distribution, and ...

Characterizing the salivary RNA landscape to identify potential diagnostic, prognostic, and follow‐up biomarkers for breast cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study explores salivary RNA for breast cancer (BC) diagnosis, prognosis, and follow‐up. High‐throughput RNA sequencing identified distinct salivary RNA signatures, including novel transcripts, that differentiate BC from healthy controls, characterize histological and molecular subtypes, and indicate lymph node involvement.
