Shaping the topology of folding pathways in mechanical systems
Nature 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 ...

SHEETSPAIR: A Database of Amino Acid Pairs in Protein Sheet Structures
Data Science Journal, 2007 Within folded strands of a protein, amino acids (AAs) on every adjacent two strands form a pair of AAs. To explore the interactions between strands in a protein sheet structure, we have established an Internet-accessible relational database named ...

Relaxation Constant in the Folding of Thin Viscoelastic Sheets [PDF]
Physical Review Applied, 2020 If one folds a thin viscoelastic sheet under an applied force, a line of plastic deformation is formed which shapes the sheet into an angle. We determine the parameters that define this angle experimentally and show that, no matter how much load one applies, it is impossible to make angles less than a certain minimum angle in a definite time. Moreover,

Процесс оппозитного формообразования рельефных пластин складчатой структуры
Вестник Самарского университета: Аэрокосмическая техника, технологии и машиностроение, 2019 Рассматривается технологическая схема, позволяющая разделить формообразование складчатых конструкций на несколько этапов. Формирование рельефа достигается выворачиванием отдельных участков трапециевидного гофра до придания им зеркально-отражённой формы ...

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

Engineering peptides into antibodies—opportunities and strategies for therapeutic innovation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Peptides and antibodies occupy complementary therapeutic niches. Peptides recognize difficult targets in a compact format, while antibodies add specificity, long half‐life, and effector functions. This review examines strategies that merge both modalities—peptide grafting into loops, terminal and Fc fusions, and bioconjugation—highlighting how ...

Structural and biochemical analysis of a B12 superbinder
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.BtuG proteins are vitamin B12 scavengers in Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron, a dominant human gut bacterium. We present crystal structures of three BtuG homologs bound to cobalamin and its precursor cobinamide, revealing picomolar binding affinities, among the highest known for any natural protein.
