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 ...

EFFECTS OF THE PULP PREPARATION AND PAPERMAKING PROCESSES ON THE PROPERTIES of OCC FIBERS

open access: yesBioResources, 2011
Changes of the pore structure of recycled fibers and the strength properties of papers produced by old corrugated container (OCC) recycled fibers were studied, after they were subjected to different stock preparation and papermaking processes.

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+.

GTalign: spatial index-driven protein structure alignment, superposition, and search

open access: yesNature Communications
With protein databases growing rapidly due to advances in structural and computational biology, the ability to accurately align and rapidly search protein structures has become essential for biological research. In response to the challenge posed by vast

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

High-Sensitivity Refractive Index Sensing Based on an SNPNS Composite Structure

open access: yesPhotonics
In this paper, we design and demonstrate an all-fiber-sensitive refractive index (RI) sensor based on the Mach–Zehnder interferometer (MZI). It is constructed by splicing two no-core fibers (NCFs) and a photonic crystal fiber (PCF) between two single ...

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

An Automated Multi-Signal Liquidity Structure Visualization System for Equity-Index and Forex Market-Structure Analysis

open access: yesIEEE Access
This paper presents an automated framework for multi-signal market-structure visualization that integrates Change-of-Character (CHoC) detection, operating-range boundaries, and liquidity-void identification.

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.
