Twist Free Energy in a Spin Glass

open access: yes, 2002
The field theory of a short range spin glass with Gaussian random interactions, is considered near the upper critical dimension six. In the glassy phase, replica symmetry breaking is accompanied with massless Goldstone modes, generated by the breaking of

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

open access: yesFEBS 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 ...

Potential fields of free energy at the stages of hardening and softening of the Hencky medium at nonpositivity of volume deformation

open access: yesVestnik Samarskogo Gosudarstvennogo Tehničeskogo Universiteta. Seriâ: Fiziko-Matematičeskie Nauki, 2014
The Hencky medium with softening under isothermal and quasistatic deformation is considered. It is believed that volume deformation is not positive. In this case softening is characterized by the part of union curve with negative slope.

The (Glg)ABCs of cyanobacteria: modelling of glycogen synthesis and functional divergence of glycogen synthases in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

Brain asymmetry as minimization of free energy: a theoretical model

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science
The asymmetry between the left and right sides seems to be a general principle of organization of the nervous systems in Bilateria, providing the foundations for a plethora of leftward and rightward biases in behaviour as documented in species ranging ...

Exploration, Novelty, Surprise and Free Energy Minimisation

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2013
This paper reviews recent developments under the free energy principle that introduce a normative perspective on classical economic (utilitarian) decision-making based on (active) Bayesian inference.

Molecular model of OCP-phycobilisome complex formation [PDF]

open access: yesКомпьютерные исследования и моделирование, 2014
A molecular model of phicobilisome complex with a quenching protein OCP which regulates the energy transfer from phicobilisome to photosystem in photosynthetic apparatus of cyanobacteria has been developed.

Free Energy Guided Sampling [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Chemical Theory and Computation, 2012
A free energy-guided sampling (FEGS) method is proposed for accelerating exploration of conformational space in unbiased molecular dynamics. Using the cut-based free energy profile and Markov state models, FEGS speeds up sampling of the canonical ensemble by iteratively restarting multiple short simulations in parallel from regions of the free energy ...

The Magnetic Energy - Helicity Diagram of Solar Active Regions

open access: yes, 2012
Using a recently proposed nonlinear force-free method designed for single vector magnetograms of solar active regions we calculate the instantaneous free magnetic energy and relative magnetic helicity budgets in 162 vector magnetograms corresponding to ...

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...
