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

open access: yesFEBS 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 ...

Ionic conductivity and ion transport mechanisms of solid‐state lithium‐ion battery electrolytes: A review

open access: yes, 2022
This review article deals with the ionic conductivity of solid‐state electrolytes for lithium batteries. It has discussed the mechanisms of ion conduction in ceramics, polymers, and ceramic‐polymer composite electrolytes.

Combating Pathogens Using Carbon-Fiber Ionizers (CFIs) for Air Purification: A Narrative Review

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Airborne pathogens, though a minor fraction of airborne particles, can cause infections, intoxications, or allergic reactions through respiration, dermal contact, or ingestion.

The Archaeal Na+/Ca2+ Exchanger (NCX_Mj) as a Model of Ion Transport for the Superfamily of Ca2+/CA Antiporters

open access: yesFrontiers in Chemistry, 2021
The superfamily of Calcium/Cation (Ca2+/CA) antiporters extrude Ca2+ from the cytosol or subcellular compartments in exchange with Na+, K+, H+, Li+, or Mg2+ and thereby provide a key mechanism for Ca2+ signaling and ion homeostasis in biological systems ...

Tau acetylation at K331 has limited impact on tau pathology in vivo

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We mapped tau post‐translational modifications in humanized MAPT knock‐in mice and in amyloid‐bearing double knock‐in mice. Acetylation within the repeat domain, particularly around K331, showed modest increases under amyloid pathology. To test functional relevance, we generated MAPTK331Q knock‐in mice.

Promises and Challenges of Next-Generation "Beyond Li-ion" Batteries for Electric Vehicles and Grid Decarbonization.

open access: yesChemical Reviews, 2020
The tremendous improvement in performance and cost of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have made them the technology of choice for electrical energy storage. While established battery chemistries and cell architectures for Li-ion batteries achieve good power

Optimal technological modes of ion implantation and following annealing for forming thin nanosized films of silicides

open access: yesEurasian Journal of Physics and Functional Materials, 2021
The formation of nanosized films of silicides on the surface of Si (111) and Si (100) was studied by the method of low-energy ion implantation. The optimal technological modes of ion implantation and subsequent annealing for the formation of thin ...

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+.

Metabolic Roles of Plant Mitochondrial Carriers

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2020
Mitochondrial carriers (MC) are a large family (MCF) of inner membrane transporters displaying diverse, yet often redundant, substrate specificities, as well as differing spatio-temporal patterns of expression; there are even increasing examples of non ...

Effects of cavity birefringence in polarisation-encoded quantum networks

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2023
The generation of entanglement between distant atoms via single photons is the basis for networked quantum computing, a promising route to large-scale trapped-ion and trapped-atom processors.
