The thinning of lamellae in surfactant-free foams with non-Newtonian liquid phase [PDF]
, 2008 Thinning rates of liquid lamellae in surfactant-free non-Newtonian gas–liquid foams, appropriate for ceramic or polymer melts and also in metals near the melting point, are derived in two dimensions by matched asymptotic analysis valid at small capillary

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Calpains dimerize via penta‐EF‐hand (PEF) domains. Using single‐molecule force spectroscopy, we measured the strength and kinetics of PEF–PEF homodimer binding. The interaction is robust, shows a transient conformational step before dissociation, and remains largely insensitive to Ca2+.

Observing growth of metallic crystals inside liquid metal solvents
Nature CommunicationsLiquid metals are promising unconventional solvents for dissolving metals and growing their crystals. However, how the crystals grow within these metallic solvents cannot be observed easily due to the opacity of liquid metals.

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.

The viscosity of liquid metals
AIChE Journal, 1966 AbstractIn order to make the kinetic theory of liquid viscosity tractable, an approximate from is suggested for the perturbation of the radial distribution function of a monatomic liquid by a nonuniform flow field. Substitution of this form into the microscopic expression for the pressure tensor yields an equation for liquid viscosity in terms of the ...

pH‐mediated activation of the lysosomal arginine sensor SLC38A9
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Cells monitor nutrient levels via the lysosomal transporter SLC38A9 to activate the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). This study reveals that SLC38A9 function is regulated by pH. We identified histidine 544 as a critical pH sensor that undergoes conformational changes to control amino acid efflux from lysosomes; therefore, it ...
