Simultaneous modification of Thermotoga maritima encapsulin subunits to produce multivalent nanoparticle vaccines for non‐typhoidal Salmonella enterica

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
This study investigates the modularity of encapsulin—a protein nanoparticle—by simultaneously inserting up to four distinct Salmonella epitopes within the encapsulin subunit. The encapsulin variants were transiently expressed in plants where they assembled into nanoparticles; however, their accumulation and stability varied depending on the ...

ABSTRACT Well‐being is increasingly recognized as a key psychological construct of success and persistence in second language (L2) learning, yet limited research has examined how individual psychological‐emotional resources interact to shape it. To bridge this gap, this study explores how L2 grit and self‐efficacy influence L2 learners’ well‐being ...

The Motivation–Grit–Achievement Relationship in L2 Reading and Listening: Focusing on the Ideal L2 Self

International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the robustness of the motivation–grit–achievement relationship in second language (L2) reading and listening, extending previous research conducted on writing and speaking. To address increasing concerns regarding the validity of the binary‐type ideal self scale, the motivation variable is redefined using a better‐validated

ABSTRACT Focusing on the narratives of two Japanese undergraduate students, this article examines their everyday experiences of using and learning English, situated within entangled relations of power. Drawing on the Foucauldian notion of discourse, the study reveals how multiple power/knowledge systems—such as native speakerism, prescriptivism ...

Role of the tomato MARS1/ROUGH gene encoding a LYSINE‐SPECIFIC HISTONE DEMETHYLASE 1 in adventitious root and fruit skin formation

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
The tomato mars1/rough mutant displays enhanced root regeneration and rough fruits due to ectopic cell proliferation. The causal gene encodes a lysine‐specific histone demethylase that normally maintains gene silencing. Its loss alters histone methylation, upregulating several genes, including those B‐type cyclins involved in tissue‐specific cellular ...

Effect of Two Therapeutic Renal Diets on Hormonal and Regulatory Pathways Affecting Calcium Homeostasis in Cats With Early‐Stage Chronic Kidney Disease

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a known risk factor for hypercalcemia in cats. Phosphate‐restricted diets have also been implicated in causing hypercalcemia, in part because phosphate restriction increases the Ca:P ratio. The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of two different therapeutic renal foods on ionized (iCa ...
