Golgi enzymes are retrieved from the plasma membrane to the trans‐Golgi network

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Golgi enzymes are traditionally considered resident proteins retained within the Golgi apparatus. Here, we demonstrate that a subset transiently reaches the cell surface and is subsequently retrieved to the trans‐Golgi network via retrograde transport. Using a nanobody‐based toolkit, we uncover a dynamic trafficking cycle of several Golgi enzymes.

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

FEBS 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 ...

The mastery of details in the workflow of materials machine learning

npj Computational Materials
As machine learning (ML) continues to advance in the field of materials science, the variation in strategies for the same steps of the ML workflow becomes increasingly significant. These details can have a substantial impact on results, yet they have not

The Shewanella oneidensis Fic enzyme SoFic targets the switch‐I region of EF‐Tu for AMPylation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fic enzymes mediate diverse post‐translational modifications across all domains of life, including AMPylation. Prokaryotic EF‐Tu can be AMPylated and deAMPylated by the conserved Fic enzyme SoFic. Structural and biochemical approaches were used to characterize the effect of AMPylation on EF‐Tu, SoFic's enzymatic activities, and the enzyme‐target ...

High-throughput mapping of magnetic properties via the on-the-fly XMCD spectroscopy in a combinatorial Fe-Co-Ni film

Science and Technology of Advanced Materials: Methods
High-throughput X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) spectroscopy was conducted on Fe-Co-Ni compositionally graded films to systematically analyze the variation of magnetic properties as a function of composition.

Influence of ultraviolet radiation on polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA)

Journal of Materials Research and Technology, 2019
Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) was irradiated (360–811 h) in a UV-B accelerated aging chamber at room temperature and oxidizing atmosphere. The macromolecular changes attributed to the radiation were investigated by means of tests such as: traction test ...

Artificial molecular machines and motors—Design and control of nanoscale motion

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Molecules are constantly moving because of thermal fluctuations, but random motion alone cannot be exploited to perform directional tasks. Artificial molecular machines use chemical, electrical, or light energy to bias this motion. Molecular shuttles, rotary motors, and supramolecular pumps illustrate how nanoscale movement can be controlled and ...
