Effect of a Lightning Flash [PDF]
Nature, 1902 DURING the storm on Wednesday, September 10, a house opposite my rooms in Fulham was struck by lightning at 4.40 p.m. Curiously enough, at the moment of the occurrence I was looking at the exact spot, and it may be of interest to record what occurred.

Stimulus dependence of the flash-lag effect
Vision Research, 2007 When two moving objects are presented in perfect alignment, but are not visible for the same amount of time, the briefer object will often be perceived as "lagging" the object of greater duration. Most investigations of this flash-lag effect (FLE) employ high velocity broadband stimuli, such as lines or dots with sharp boundaries and flashes with rapid

REMOTE - Mechanisms of the FLASH effect [PDF]
, 2022 A re-emergence of research implementing radiation delivery at ultra-high dose rates (UHDR) has triggered intense interest in the radiation sciences and has opened a new field of investigation in radiobiology.

FEBS 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 ...

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.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Knowledge of, and response to, upland flash flooding: a case study of flood risk management of the 2005 flash flood in upper Ryedale, North Yorkshire, U.K. [PDF]
, 2012 The dangerous hazard posed by flash flooding to upland communities is likely to increase due to climate change. The flood risk management policy approach has become predominant since the 1990s, with an emphasis on the public awareness of, and responses ...
