An upstream open reading frame regulates expression of the mitochondrial protein Slm35 and mitophagy flux

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals how the mitochondrial protein Slm35 is regulated in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The authors identify stress‐responsive DNA elements and two upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in the 5′ untranslated region of SLM35. One uORF restricts translation, and its mutation increases Slm35 protein levels and mitophagy.

Durability and Smart Condition Assessment of Ultra-High Performance Concrete in Cold Climates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The goals of this study were to develop ecological ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) with local materials and supplementary cementitious materials and to evaluate the long-term performance of UHPC in cold climates using effective mechanical test ...

Experimental study of the material and bond properties of frost-damaged concrete [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In an extensive experimental investigation, several types of tests were conducted on a reference specimen and frost-damaged concrete. Two levels of internal frost damage were quantified by the relative dynamic modulus of elasticity and compressive ...

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 ...

Incidents of damage to berm drainage ditches in cold region and countermeasures [PDF]

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2019
Berm drainage ditches may fail due to frost heave in cold and snowy areas like Hokkaido. Many of these failures are regarded to be caused by damage due to frost heave in the ground or freeze-thaw, but no sufficient measures are being taken, as ...

A Bio-Wicking System to Prevent Frost Heave in Alaskan Pavements: Phase II Implementation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Water within pavement layers is the major cause of pavement deterioration. High water content results in significant reduction in soil’s resilient behavior and an increase in permanent deformation.

FACTORS OF OCCURRENCE OF FROST DAMAGE

open access: yesDoboku Gakkai Ronbunshu, 1998
コンクリート構造物の凍害は, コンクリートが硬化する前に発生する初期凍害と硬化後に発生する凍害の2つに分けることができる. 初期凍害は, 養生方法の改善や耐寒剤の開発によりあまり見られなくなった. また, 硬化後の凍害についても, AE剤の使用や適切な配合の選択により防止することが可能となった. しかし, まだ多くのコンクリート構造物で凍害による劣化が起こっていることも事実である. 本研究では凍害の発生要因の体系化を試みるとともに, コンクリート橋を中心とした253の構造物の凍害調査にもとづき, 凍害劣化の現状とその形態について整理した. さらに, AEコンクリートにおいて凍害が発生している現状を踏まえ, 室内試験によってその原因について検討を行った. また, 各種要因による凍害劣化予測法を提案した.

Organ‐specific redox imbalances in spinal muscular atrophy mice are partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotides

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...
