The exit-time problem for a Markov jump process

, 2014
The purpose of this paper is to consider the exit-time problem for a finite-range Markov jump process, i.e, the distance the particle can jump is bounded independent of its location.

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

FEBS 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.

Effects of three strength training methods on lower extremity strength, jump and sprint performance: a network meta-analysis

Frontiers in Physiology
BackgroundWeightlifting (WT) and Plyometric training (PT) may lead to comparable enhancements in strength, jump, and sprint performance. However, these two training modalities appear to differ significantly in their primary focus and underlying ...

A methionine‐lined active site governs carbocation stabilization and product specificity in a bacterial terpene synthase

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals a unique active site enriched in methionine residues and demonstrates that these residues play a critical role by stabilizing carbocation intermediates through novel sulfur–cation interactions. Structure‐guided mutagenesis further revealed variants with significantly altered product profiles, enhancing pseudopterosin formation. These

Effect of lower-body plyometric training on athletic performance and muscle–tendon properties

Journal of Physical Fitness and Sports Medicine, 2014
Lower-body plyometric exercises are jumping-type exercises that use an individual’s body weight or a relatively low external load as resistance. In various sports training regimens, lower-body plyometric training is used to improve athletic performance ...

The neural crest‐associated gene ERRFI1 is involved in melanoma progression and resistance toward targeted therapy

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
ERRFI1, a neural crest (NC)‐associated gene, was upregulated in melanoma and negatively correlated with the expression of melanocytic differentiation markers and the susceptibility of melanoma cells toward BRAF inhibitors (BRAFi). Knocking down ERRFI1 significantly increased the sensitivity of melanoma cells to BRAFi.
