Structural insights into lacto‐N‐biose I recognition by a family 32 carbohydrate‐binding module from Bifidobacterium bifidum

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Bifidobacterium bifidum establishes symbiosis with infants by metabolizing lacto‐N‐biose I (LNB) from human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs). The extracellular multidomain enzyme LnbB drives this process, releasing LNB via its catalytic glycoside hydrolase family 20 (GH20) lacto‐N‐biosidase domain.

Intensive Rain Hampers the Effectiveness of Nitrification Inhibition in Controlling N₂O Emissions from Dairy Slurry-Fertilized Soils

Agriculture, 2020
Nitrification inhibitors have been proposed as a tool to mitigate nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from agriculture, which are caused mainly by fertilization.

Fossil Imprints of the First Generation Supernova Ejecta in Extremely Metal-Deficient Stars

, 1998
Using results of nucleosynthesis calculations for theoretical core-collapse supernova models with various progenitor's masses, it is shown that abundance patterns of C, Mg, Si, Ca, and H seen in extremely metal-deficient stars with [Fe/H] < -2.5 follow ...

The Caenorhabditis elegans DPF‐3 and human DPP4 have tripeptidyl peptidase activity

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPPIV) family comprises serine proteases classically defined by their ability to remove dipeptides from the N‐termini of substrates, a feature that gave the family its name. Here, we report the discovery of a previously unrecognized tripeptidyl peptidase activity in DPPIV family members from two different species.

The Spatial and Temporal Variability of Soil-Water Evaporation as Influenced by Near-Surface Soil Porosities

Agronomy
Soil water evaporation rate (E) exhibits significant spatial and temporal variability under field conditions. Some studies demonstrated the influence of porosity (n) on soil-water evaporation processes.

Investigating the Feasibility of Multi-Scan Terrestrial Laser Scanning to Characterize Tree Communities in Southern Boreal Forests

Remote Sensing, 2019
Terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) has proven to accurately represent individual trees, while the use of TLS for plot-level forest characterization has been studied less.

Crosstalk between the ribosome quality control‐associated E3 ubiquitin ligases LTN1 and RNF10

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Loss of the E3 ligase LTN1, the ubiquitin‐like modifier UFM1, or the deubiquitinating enzyme UFSP2 disrupts endoplasmic reticulum–ribosome quality control (ER‐RQC), a pathway that removes stalled ribosomes and faulty proteins. This disruption may trigger a compensatory response to ER‐RQC defects, including increased expression of the E3 ligase RNF10 ...

Effect of "dipolar-biasing" on the tunability of tunneling magnetoresistance in transition metal oxide systems

, 2012
We observe an unusual tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR) phenomenon in a composite of La$_{2/3}$Sr$_{1/3}$MnO$_{3}$ with CoFe$_{2}$O$_{4}$ where the TMR versus applied magnetic field loop suggests a "negative coercive field". Tracing its origin back to a "

Peptide‐based ligand antagonists block a Vibrio cholerae adhesin

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The structure of a peptide‐binding domain of the Vibrio cholerae adhesin FrhA was solved by X‐ray crystallography, revealing how the inhibitory peptide AGYTD binds tightly at its Ca2+‐coordinated pocket. Structure‐guided design incorporating D‐amino acids enhanced binding affinity, providing a foundation for developing anti‐adhesion therapeutics ...

Microstructural evaluation of CoAl2O4 nanoparticles by Williamson–Hall and size–strain plot methods

Journal of Asian Ceramic Societies, 2018
CoAl2O4 nanoparticles were prepared by a Pechini method using chelating agent citric acid. CoAl2O4 nanoparticles were synthesized at different calcination temperatures of 600–900°C.
