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

FEBS 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 ...

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

FEBS 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.

The Importance of Ground Control Points In A Photogrammetric Workflow

Journal of Applied Engineering Sciences
Abstract This study investigates the optimal distribution and pattern of ground control points (GCPs) in aerial photogrammetric projects. Aerial triangulation (AT), also known as bundle adjustment, is the fundamental step in refining 3D reconstruction models and camera positions, thereby minimizing reprojection errors.

Target Influence on Ground Control Points (GCPs) Identification in Aerial Images

IGARSS 2020 - 2020 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2020
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are used nowadays as a standard tool to derive very high-resolution geospatial data. However, UAV payload limitation imposes the use of not such reliable hardware affecting the georeferencing precision. In the literature it is possible to find numerous studies investigating the parameters influencing UAV-based products ...

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

The DEM Registration Method Without Ground Control Points for Landslide Deformation Monitoring

Remote Sensing
Landslides are geological disasters that are harmful to both humans and society. Digital elevation model (DEM) time series data are usually used to monitor dynamic changes or surface damage.

Autonomous Mobile Ground Control Point Improves Accuracy of Agricultural Remote Sensing through Collaboration with UAV

Inventions, 2020
Ground control points (GCPs) are critical for agricultural remote sensing that require georeferencing and calibration of images collected from an unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) at different times.

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent

FEBS 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+.

Epigenetic blind spots – the role of DNA methylation dynamics in stem cell‐based models of embryogenesis

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Embryo‐like structures (stembryos) are an innovative tool, but they are hindered by experimental variability and limited developmental potential. DNA methylation is crucial for mammalian development, but its status in stembryo models is poorly characterized.

Robust ground control point localization from multi-aspect stereo SAR observations using Chinese commercial satellite SVN-2

International Journal of Digital Earth
With the rapid deployment of Chinese commercial synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellites, stereo SAR technology offers new opportunities for precise ground control point (GCP) localization.
