Production of Negative-Emissions Steel Using a Reducing Gas Derived from DFB Gasification

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
A dual fluidized bed (DFB) gasification process is proposed to produce sustainable reducing gas for the direct reduction (DR) of iron ore. This novel steelmaking route is compared with the established process for DR, which is based on natural gas, and ...

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Three phosphatase families form a community: The phosphohydrolases that act upon inositol pyrophosphates

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.

Reconstructing enzyme evolution by protein engineering

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Natural enzyme evolution can be retraced by protein engineering methods such as directed evolution, rational design, and ancestral sequence reconstruction. These approaches reveal how enzymes emerged from ligand‐binding scaffolds, developed varying substrate preferences, formed oligomeric complexes, adapted to environmental changes, and evolved novel ...

EFFECT OF METAL ADDITIVES IN HYDROCHEMICAL PROCESSING OF DIASPORE-BEMITE BAUXITE ON PHYSICOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF REDUCED MUDS

open access: yesФизико-химические аспекты изучения кластеров, наноструктур и наноматериалов, 2020
The work is devoted to study of the high-temperature hydrochemical decomposition of mineral complexes of diaspore-bemite bauxites by the Bayer method with the extraction of macro-components-aluminum and iron in the presence of metal reducing agents.

Genetic Manipulation of Desulfovibrio ferrophilus and Evaluation of Fe(III) Oxide Reduction Mechanisms

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2022
The sulfate-reducing microbe Desulfovibrio ferrophilus is of interest due to its relatively rare ability to also grow with Fe(III) oxide as an electron acceptor and its rapid corrosion of metallic iron. Previous studies have suggested multiple agents for

Dimethyl fumarate combined with cisplatin at subcytotoxic doses sensitizes cervical cancer toward ferroptosis and apoptosis through GSH restriction and p53 (re)activation

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Dimethyl fumarate (DMF) reduces growth of HPV‐positive cervical cancer spheroids and induces ferroptosis in cervical cancer cells via blocking SLC7A11/Glutathione (GSH) axis. Combination of subcytotoxic doses of DMF and cisplatin (CDDP) further suppresses spheroid growth and drives cell death in 2D culture models.

Genomewide Transcriptional Responses of Iron-Starved Chlamydia trachomatis Reveal Prioritization of Metabolic Precursor Synthesis over Protein Translation

open access: yesmSystems, 2018
Iron is essential for growth and development of Chlamydia. Its long-term starvation in cultured mammalian cells leads to production of aberrant noninfectious chlamydial forms, also known as persistence.

PAK1 activation drives divergent resistance mechanisms to aromatase inhibition and tamoxifen in a luminal: A breast cancer model

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Breast cancer remains a major cause of cancer death in women, frequently developing endocrine therapy resistance. This study demonstrates that upregulated p21‐activated kinase 1 (PAK1) activity drives resistance to tamoxifen and long‐term estrogen deprivation in ER+ breast cancer models.

Bacterial assimilation reduction of iron in the treatment of non-metallics [PDF]

open access: yesActa Montanistica Slovaca, 2005
Natural non-metallics, including granitoide and quartz sands, often contain iron which decreases the whiteness of these raw materials. Insoluble Fe3+ in these samples could be reduced to soluble Fe2+ by bacteria of Bacillus spp.
