Semiclassical dynamics for torsional Newton-Cartan strings

open access: yesNuclear Physics B, 2020
We explore folded spinning string configurations over torsional Newton Cartan (TNC) geometry with R×S2 topology within the semiclassical approximation. We consider the large c and/or nonrelativistic (NR) limit associated with the world-sheet d.o.f.

INTERPRETATIONS OF COMPLICATED FOLDED STRUCTURES AT THE LOWER PARTS OF ANTARCTIC AND GREENLAND ICE SHEETS

open access: yesGeography, Environment, Sustainability, 2015
Complicated folded structures were recently recorded by radar survey in the lower portions of the Antarctic and Greenland ice sheets. From a geological point of view the Antarctic and Greenland ice sheets are considered as geological features, while the ...

A Universal Approach to Optimize the Folding and Stability of Prefusion-Closed HIV-1 Envelope Trimers

open access: yesCell Reports, 2018
Summary: The heavily glycosylated native-like envelope (Env) trimer of HIV-1 is expected to have low immunogenicity, whereas misfolded forms are often highly immunogenic.

Shearigami: Self‐Folding via Shear Deformation

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, 2023
Origami and kirigami have become foundations for programmable sheet materials that fold along flexible creases. However, since they are originated from folded paper that allows no in‐plane sheet deformation, they suffer from limited folding energy ...

Trapping a salt-dependent unfolding intermediate of the marginally stable protein Yfh1

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2014
Yfh1, the yeast ortholog of frataxin, is a protein of limited thermodynamic stability which undergoes cold denaturation at temperatures above the water freezing point.

Amyloid oligomer conformation in a group of natively folded proteins. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2008
Recent in vitro and in vivo studies suggest that destabilized proteins with defective folding induce aggregation and toxicity in protein-misfolding diseases.

Calzone-Like Traumatic Flap Dislocation Four Years after Laser in situ Keratomileusis

open access: yesCase Reports in Ophthalmology, 2019
A 46-year-old patient presented with a flip-folded partially dislocated flap after trauma caused by a sheet of paper, four years after a reportedly uneventful laser in situ keratomileusis procedure using microkeratome.

Diagonal Interactions between Glutamate and Arginine Analogs with Varying Side-Chain Lengths in a β-Hairpin

open access: yesMolecules, 2023
Cross-strand interactions are important for the stability of β-sheet structures. Accordingly, cross-strand diagonal interactions between glutamate and arginine analogs with varying side-chain lengths were studied in a series of β-hairpin peptides.

Shaping the topology of folding pathways in mechanical systems

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Self-folding origami have applications for mechanical metamaterials but one of their pitfalls is that many undesirable folding modes exist. Here the authors propose an algorithm to determine which folding joints to make stiffer in order to ensure that ...

Graphene as a Prototypical Model for Two-Dimensional Continuous Mechanics

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2017
This paper reviews a few problems where continuous-medium theory specialized to two-dimensional media provides a qualitatively correct picture of the mechanical behavior of graphene. A critical analysis of the parameters involved is given.
