Exploring adverse childhood experiences in the wake of system change – A natural experiment comparing East and West Germany

open access: yesActa Psychologica
Background: Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) have negative effects on individuals necessitating examination to discern contributing conditions. The use of quasi-experimental settings, arising from socio-political changes, offers retrospective insight

Zwischen Ver- und Entortung. Der ‚dritte Raum‘ in ausgewählten Texten der Post-DDR-Literatur

open access: yesColloquia Germanica Stetinensia, 2022
The German unification process took for more than thirty years ago and still there is no consistency in German literary studies in how to define literature that has been produced in East Germany after 1989.

Critical Juncture of Unification - Window of (missed) opportunity for the German Welfare State?

open access: yesSocial Work and Society, 2013
The unification of West and East Germany posed tremendous challenges for the German welfare state. This paper conceptualizes this unification as a critical juncture in German history and critically explores the chosen path of institutional transfer of ...

The Question of National Identity in the Multiethnical Sopron Through the Work of the Dalfüzér/Liederkranz (1847-1867)

open access: yesMusicologica Olomucensia, 2023
Richard Taruskin describes the German choral movement as the hotbed of German nationalist unification, the musical precursor of a new nation-building ideology.

New Research on East Germany: An Introduction

open access: yesImaginations: Journal of Cross-Cultural Media Studies, 2018
Over a quarter century has elapsed since the end of the Cold War and the unification of Germany, enough time for writers, artists, scholars, and the general public to have both remembered their pre-1990 experience and witnessed a series of controversies ...

The planar cell polarity protein Vangl2 interacts with the PDZ‐domains of Scribble but not with a unique PDZ‐like domain in Inturned

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Calpains dimerize via penta‐EF‐hand (PEF) domains. Using single‐molecule force spectroscopy, we measured the strength and kinetics of PEF–PEF homodimer binding. The interaction is robust, shows a transient conformational step before dissociation, and remains largely insensitive to Ca2+.

Valosin‐containing protein counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its ATPase activity in vitro

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

Válka jako stvořitelka a ničitelka národů, národních států a impérií. Evropská zkušenost od napoleonské éry / War as the creator and destroyer of nations, nation-states and empires. The european experience since the napoleonic era [PDF]

open access: yesHistorie - Otázky - Problémy, 2016
This study examines the role of war in the processes of decay and emergence of nations, nation-states and empires in Europe from the Napoleonic wars to the First World War. Throughout the period under review up to 1914 no nation-state emerged in Europe

Organizing the interface—Plasma membrane architecture and receptor dynamics in virus‐cell interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...
