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

open access: yesFEBS 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 ...

Study on subsidence evolution induced by coal mining under highway based on finite element simulation

open access: yesEnergy Exploration & Exploitation
Accurate estimation of overlying strata subsidence and surface deformation caused by coal extraction is crucial for assessing the impact of mining activities on surface infrastructure.

Application of Artificial Neural Networks in Assessing Mining Subsidence Risk

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
Subsidence at abandoned mines sometimes causes destruction of local areas and casualties. This paper proposes a mine subsidence risk index and establishes a subsidence risk grade based on two separate analyses of A and B to predict the occurrence of ...

Dewatering Preloading Test and Ground Subsidence in a Project

open access: yes, 2011
Ground subsidence is one of the main geological hazards in Shanghai. The ground subsidence is caused by pumping groundwater greatly. In the past, studies of ground subsidence in Shanghai were mostly taken for the ground subsidence caused by pumping ...

Physical modeling of buried PVC pipes overlying localized ground subsidence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The last half-century has witnessed a proliferation in the use of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) pipes in civil engineering applications. However, little physical data are available to date to assess conformance with performance limits of these pipes subjected

DNA ligase LigE increases bacterial transformation with damaged extracellular DNA

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The DNA ligase LigE from the naturally competent Gram‐negative bacterium Neisseria gonorrhoaea increases transformation with cut extracellular DNA. This process is ATP‐dependent and relies on the catalytic activity of LigE; it also requires that LigE contains an intact periplasmic localisation sequence, indicating that ligE functions in the periplasm ...

Purification and preparation of Marchantia polymorpha Auxin Response Factor 2 for phase separation studies

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We describe detailed protocols for the purification and preparation of Marchantia polymorpha Auxin Response Factor 2 (MpARF2). This protein is fused to an MBP solubility tag and an mNG fluorescent tag and is purified from Escherichia coli. The presented procedures make it possible to study MpARF2 assemblies, which could arise from phase separation ...

Application of SBAS-InSAR technology to analyze the evolution characteristics and cause of ground subsidence in Sanhe City, Hebei Province

open access: yesZhongguo dizhi zaihai yu fangzhi xuebao
According to studies by relevant scholars, the ground subsidence rate in Sanhe City, Hebei, increased gradually from 2003 to 2016, with the most severe subsidence observed in the Yanjiao area , which has become contiguous with the subsidence area in ...

Persistent scatterer interferometry to monitor mining related ground surface deformation for data-driven modelling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The monitoring, interpretation and prediction of gradual ground surface deformation are critical factors in the understanding of earth systems. In many parts of the world, particularly in coastal areas where resources are often easily transportable and ...
