Sudden anaerobization in Amphibacillus xylanus increases intracellular labile ferrous iron and inhibits cell growth

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Abruptly changing from aerobic to anaerobic conditions (sudden anaerobization) induced growth inhibition and a significant increase in intracellular labile ferrous iron in the aerotolerant anaerobe Amphibacillus xylanus. We found that free flavins mediate efficient electron transfer from NADH to ferric iron under anaerobic conditions, suggesting that ...

The effect of pore water pressure distribution induced by rainfall infiltration on the failure of unsaturated soil slopes [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences
Numerical analysis was performed based on the Material Point Method (MPM) to analyze the failure mechanisms of unsaturated slopes due to rainfall infiltration. A coupled hydro-mechanical finite element model was applied to solve the rainfall infiltration

Importin 7 mediates the nuclear import of HIV‐1 integrase via a specific interacting interface

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
HIV‐1 integrase enables viral DNA integration into the host genome. By binding to the core domain of the host protein Importin 7 via its C‐terminal domain, the integrase is transported across the nuclear membrane into the nucleus, where integration of the viral genome into host DNA takes place. This translocation is a critical step for subsequent viral

Comparison Study on the Residual Excess Pore Water Pressure Observed in seabed [PDF]

Journal of Korean navigation and port research, 2013
The interaction among wave, seabed and marine structure is an important issue in coastal engineering as well as geotechnical engineering. Understanding variations of stresses and pore water pressures generated in seabed induced by waves is important for civil engineers who have to design the foundation for various marine structures and verify the ...

Optimizing photoexcitation conditions for time‐resolved X‐ray solution scattering experiments

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Time‐resolved X‐ray solution scattering (TR‐XSS) is a powerful technique to visualize how proteins change their structure in real time after light activation. Selecting the right laser photoexcitation conditions—fluence, excitation geometry, and sample refresh rate—is critical to maximize the experimental signal while avoiding unwanted side effects ...

Laboratory Tests on Open-Close Pile Jacking and Load Bearing Characteristics in Saturated Clay Soil

Advances in Civil Engineering, 2022
The stress characteristics of the pile-soil interface have an important influence on the effect and long-term bearing capacity of jacked piles. In order to obtain the stress characteristics of the pile-soil interface of the jacked pile in clay, the ...

Evidence for excess pore‐water pressure generated in subglacial sediment: Implications for clast ploughing

Geophysical Research Letters, 2005
Pore water pressure in front of an object pulled through subglacial sediment and water pressure at the base of a borehole were simultaneously recorded at Unteraargletscher, Switzerland, to investigate the generation of excess pore pressures downglacier from ploughing clasts.

Accurate and noninvasive prostate cancer detection using plasma‐derived extracellular vesicle RNA

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Plasma extracellular vesicles were captured with WGA‐conjugated magnetic beads and profiled for RNA biomarkers. A three‐RNA panel (NM_024955, NR_047469, and NR_002564) distinguished prostate cancer from healthy controls and benign prostatic hyperplasia, supporting a simple, noninvasive approach to improve prostate cancer detection.

Large-scale shaking table tests on the liquefaction and deformation responses of an ultra-deep overburden

Open Geosciences
To study the liquefaction problem of the dam foundation of an ultra-deep overburden in the strong earthquake area, a large-scale shaking table model test is carried out based on a 500 m rockfill dam project on an ultra-deep overburden.

Adenosine triphosphate as a modulator of protein interactions and stability

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
ATP is best known as the cell's energy currency, but it also shapes how proteins fold, interact, aggregate and form biomolecular condensates. This review explains the emerging physical principles behind these effects, including weak binding to charged protein regions, magnesium‐dependent behaviour and concentration‐dependent control of protein ...
