Inheritance of coat colour in Slovak Pinzgau cattle [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Central European Agriculture, 2016
The objective of the work was analysis of chestnut coat colour inheritance of Slovak Pinzgau cattle in accordance to age and farming system. In 304 cows of breeding groups P0,P1,P2 and R3 born between 2000 to 2010 from four breeding herds (4 agricultural

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.

Separate effects of background and illumination on lightness [PDF]

open access: yesPsihologija, 2007
Four experiments attempted to establish an effect of context on lightness. Lightness is one of the dimensions of color and it varies from black to white. Most of our stimuli were inspired by simultaneous lightness contrast illusion. First two experiments

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

open access: yesFEBS 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.

Luminance gradient configuration determines perceived lightness in a simple geometric illusion

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2014
Accurate perception of surface reflectance poses a significant computational problem for the visual system. The amount of light reflected by a surface is affected by a combination of factors including the surface’s reflectance properties and illumination

Lightness constancy: ratio invariance and luminance profile [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The term simultaneous lightness constancy describes the capacity of the visual system to perceive equal reflecting surfaces as having the same lightness despite lying in different illumination fields.

Epigenetic blind spots – the role of DNA methylation dynamics in stem cell‐based models of embryogenesis

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Embryo‐like structures (stembryos) are an innovative tool, but they are hindered by experimental variability and limited developmental potential. DNA methylation is crucial for mammalian development, but its status in stembryo models is poorly characterized.

La Madone des Sleepings ou le kitsch des annees folles

open access: yesRelief: Revue Électronique de Littérature Francaise, 2015
A stylistic analysis of the novel highlights its rhetorical inflation and its way of imitating Giraudoux’s aesthetics, but it also shows an ironical dimension.

Perceptions of 'Prague': Film and Fantasy In The Unbearable Lightness Of Being, Daisies and The Grand Budapest Hotel

open access: yes, 2023
Perceptions of Prague have emerged within my cinema going and research into film: Leaving and returning Prague in Philip Kaufmann’s The Unbearable Lightness of Being (1989), based on Milan Kundera’s novel; joyously encountering and deconstructing space ...

Residual tail twisting in ascidian larvae is stabilized by asymmetric myofibrils that resist bilateral symmetry restoration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...
