Cell geometry and membrane protein crowding constrain Escherichia coli growth rate, overflow metabolism, respiration, and maintenance energy

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The physical dimensions and shape of bacterial cells define the surface area available to acquire nutrients and the volume available for synthesizing proteins and DNA. Here, we use computational systems biology to decode the importance of cell geometry as a major determinant of prokaryotic phenotype, including growth rate and metabolic efficiency. This

Text characteristics of task input and difficulty in second language listening comprehension [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This study investigated the effects of a group of task factors on advanced ESL learners’ actual and perceived listening performance. We examined whether the speed, linguistic complexity, and explicitness of the listening text and characteristics of the ...

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Design and Development of a Motorized Electronic Valve as a Flow Control Actuator Based on the ESP32 Microcontroller

open access: yesJurnal EECCIS (Electrics, Electronics, Communications, Controls, Informatics, Systems)
Electric actuators have an important role in automatic control systems by replacing manual mechanisms, therefore increasing efficiency through automation. Among the most expensive components in control systems are control valves.

PARK(ing) time–How park deficiency affects the biological clock in a Drosophila model of Parkinson's disease

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Drosophila park mutants serve as a model for Parkinson's disease. We used this strain to investigate the connection between oxidative stress and the circadian clock mechanism. We showed that increased oxidative stress affects the physiology of pacemaker cells, disrupting their daily structural plasticity. Lack of rhythmic signaling from pacemaker cells

Input [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
This chapter presents corpus contributions to the study of input in SLA. Viewing input as the language to which learners are exposed, researchers use target language corpora as models of potential input, e.g.

Computer approximation of air gauge dynamic characteristics using the sine input test rig

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2019
The paper describes the test rig dedicated for air gauge dynamical characteristics assessment. The computerised system enables measurement of the amplitudes of back-pressure pk dependent on the input signal circular frequency ω.

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

APPROBATION OF TRIBOMETER WITH SEPARATED INPUT AND OUTPUT SIGNALS IN INVESTIGATION EXTERNAL FRICTION DYNAMICS STEEL AND BRASS MATERIALS [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings on Engineering Sciences, 2019
This investigation suggests a method used to determine the evolution of metallic wear and friction by sliding. The problem of external dynamics friction is investigated through the definition of the dynamic characteristics such as damping factor and ...
