A Comprehensive Study of Biohopanoid Production in Alphaproteobacteria: Biosynthetic, Chemotaxonomical, and Geobiological Implications

Geobiology, Volume 23, Issue 6, November/December 2025.
ABSTRACT Bacteriohopanepolyol derivatives (BHPDs) and dia‐ and catagenetic products formed from these bacterial membrane modifiers are extensively used as biomarkers in molecular ecological and geoscience studies. Some BHPDs can be assigned to specific phylogenetic bacterial groups. With the vastly increasing availability of complete bacterial genomes,

The Arabidopsis IspH Homolog Is Involved in the Plastid Nonmevalonate Pathway of Isoprenoid Biosynthesis [PDF]

Plant Physiology, 2005
Abstract Plant isoprenoids are synthesized via two independent pathways, the cytosolic mevalonate (MVA) pathway and the plastid nonmevalonate pathway. The Escherichia coli IspH (LytB) protein is involved in the last step of the nonmevalonate pathway.

A Stabilized Incompressible SPH Method by Relaxing the Density Invariance Condition

Journal of Applied Mathematics, 2012
A stabilized Incompressible Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (ISPH) is proposed to simulate free surface flow problems. In the ISPH, pressure is evaluated by solving pressure Poisson equation using a semi-implicit algorithm based on the projection method.

Extrapolation Boundary Conditions for 2‐D Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics

International Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, Volume 97, Issue 9, Page 1248-1279, September 2025.
This paper introduces novel inflow, outflow, and wall boundaries for the WCSPH method. Utilising innovative concepts from finite volume methods, fluid properties of sequential dynamic particles with varying distances to boundaries are extrapolated to ghost and wall particles using first‐order Taylor series expansion.

Evaluatoin of Incompressible and Compressible SPH Methods in Modeling Dam Break Flows

International Journal of Coastal and Offshore Engineering, 2018
Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamic (SPH) is an attractive Lagrangian tool for simulating flows with large displacement at free surface boundary. Two widely used subcategories of this method are Weakly compressible SPH (WCSPH) and truly Incompressible SPH ...

Distinguishing passive and driven trait evolution in the presence of boundaries

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, Page 2067-2081, September 2025.
Abstract Quantifying the dynamics of macroevolutionary trends, such as changes in body size and complexity, is vital for understanding the processes that have shaped patterns of extant and extinct biodiversity. For example, whilst maximum body size may tend to increase within lineages (the Cope‐Depéret rule), it is still unclear whether such patterns ...

Heterogeneity of provider preferences for HIV Care Coordination Program features: latent class analysis of a discrete choice experiment

HIV Research & Clinical Practice
The PROMISE study assessed revisions designed to facilitate implementation of an HIV care coordination program (CCP) addressing gaps in care and treatment engagement among people living with HIV in New York City (NYC). Through latent class analysis (LCA)

Comparative Genomics Insights Into the Evolutionary Disparities Between Nitroplast‐Evolved Ecotype UCYN‐A2 and Its Closest Relative UCYN‐A1

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 7, July 2025.
This paper conducted comparative genomic analyses among seven UCYN‐A strains in genome content, gene structure, and key metabolic protein genes. In general, our results demonstrated considerable disparities between UCYN‐A1 and UCYN‐A2, providing insights into the evolution of UCYN‐A and nitroplast.

Comorbidities and HIV‐related factors associated with mental health symptoms and unhealthy substance use among older adults living with HIV in low‐ and middle‐income countries: a cross‐sectional study

Journal of the International AIDS Society, Volume 28, Issue 3, March 2025.
Abstract Introduction People with HIV (PWH) are vulnerable to mental health and substance use disorders (MSDs), but the extent to which these are associated with other non‐communicable diseases in ageing PWH populations remains poorly documented. We assessed comorbidities associated with symptoms of MSD among PWH ≥40 years in the Sentinel Research ...
