A small molecule screen identifies novel inhibitors of mechanosensory nematocyst discharge in Hydra
Scientific Reports, 2021 Cnidarians are characterized by the possession of stinging organelles, called nematocysts, which they use for prey capture and defense. Nematocyst discharge is controlled by a mechanosensory apparatus with analogies to vertebrate hair cells.

Modelling the Chemical Evolution [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2009 AbstractAdvanced observational facilities allow to trace back the chemical evolution of the Universe, on the one hand, from local objects of different ages and, secondly, by direct observations of redshifted objects. The chemical enrichment serves as one of the cornerstones of cosmological evolution.

Evolution of the Mass–Metallicity Relation from Redshift z ≈ 8 to the Local Universe
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 A tight positive correlation between the stellar mass and the gas-phase metallicity of galaxies has been observed at low redshifts. The redshift evolution of this correlation can strongly constrain theories of galaxy evolution.

Towards Bioleaching of a Vanadium Containing Magnetite for Metal Recovery
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 Vanadium – a transition metal – is found in the ferrous-ferric mineral, magnetite. Vanadium has many industrial applications, such as in the production of high-strength low-alloy steels, and its increasing global industrial consumption requires new ...

Microbial Cell, 2017 Prions are protein-based infectious entities associated with fatal brain diseases in animals, but also modify a range of host-cell phenotypes in the budding yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Many questions remain about the evolution and biology of prions.

Odessa Astronomical Publications, 2012 We discuss the chemical abundance in Algol-type systems produced by different authors. Till this time most evolutionary changes in the chemical abundance of the components of Algols were studied by carbon depletion.

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...
