Functional comparison of EncB and EncC cargo proteins in iron storage within the Myxococcus xanthus encapsulin

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Encapsulins are protein nanocompartments that play an important role in iron storage. In the Myxococcus xanthus encapsulin system, two cargo proteins called EncB and EncC contribute to iron mineralization. Here, we show that EncB and EncC generate iron‐containing minerals with distinct chemical compositions, suggesting that the composition of stored ...

Global Existence of Solutions to a Free Boundary Problem for Viscous Incompressible Magnetohydrodynamics for Small Data

open access: yesMathematics
The motion of viscous incompressible magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) is considered in a domain that is bounded by a free surface. The motion interacts through the free surface with an electromagnetic field located in a domain exterior to the free surface and ...

Structural and biochemical analysis of a B12 superbinder

open access: yesFEBS 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.

A free boundary problem with log–term singularity

open access: yes, 2017
We study a minimum problem for a non-differentiable functional whose reaction term does not have scaling properties. Specifically we consider the functional (sic)(v) = integral(Omega) (vertical bar del v vertical bar(2)/2 - v(+)(log v - 1))dx -> min ...

The effect of different combinations of boundary conditions on the average radiation efficiency of rectangular plates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The boundary conditions of a vibrating plate are known to have an influence on its sound radiation for frequencies below the critical frequency. To investigate this effect in a systematic way, the average radiation efficiency and radiated power are ...

Structures of mycobacterial 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA carboxylase reveal carrier‐domain translocation between catalytic sites

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Mycobacterial 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA carboxylase uses a mobile biotin‐carrying domain to shuttle a carboxyl group between two catalytic sites, enabling carboxylation of 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA during leucine breakdown. Cryo‐electron microscopy captures the carrier at both sites and reveals an inward loop movement that may prevent futile rebinding to the ...

A Diffusive Predator-Prey System with a Free Boundary

open access: yesVestnik KRAUNC: Fiziko-Matematičeskie Nauki
In this paper, we consider a problem with a free boundary for a diffusive predator-prey system in the onedimensional case. Nonlinear problems with free boundary are studied using a method based on constructing a priori estimates.

From junk to function — How weak selection in eukaryotes builds new parts and drives genomic complexity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
How do genomes gain new functional parts? In eukaryotes, which tend to evolve under weak selection, much of the genome is junk. Palazzo and Qiu borrow the logic of Markov chains to show how non‐functional DNA becomes functional through the appearance of intermediate states, which arise due to epistasis, buffering, and biochemical messiness, allowing ...

Continuity of the free boundary in elliptic problems with Neuman boundary condition

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2015
We show the continuity of the free boundary in a class of two dimensional free boundary problems with Neuman boundary condition, which includes the aluminium electrolysis problem and the heterogeneous dam problem with leaky boundary condition.

Thin circular plate uniformaly loaded over a concentric elliptic path and supported on columns

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 1986
Within the limitations of the classical thin plate theory expressions are obtained for the small deflections of a thin isotropic circular plate uniformly loaded over a concentric ellipse and supported by four columns at the vertices of a rectangle whose ...
