Delineating elastic properties of kinesin linker and their sensitivity to point mutations [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2018
We analyze free energy estimators from simulation trials mimicking single-molecule pulling experiments on a neck linker of a kinesin motor. For that purpose, we have performed a version of steered molecular dynamics (SMD) calculations. The sample trajectories have been analyzed to derive distribution of work done on the system.

Tunable Thermoshrinkable Hydrogels for 4D Fabrication of Cell‐Seeded Channels

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A thermoresponsive polymer with methacrylate groups for photo‐cross‐linking, based on polyethylene glycol, N‐isopropylacrylamide, and 2‐hydroxyethyl acrylate is synthetized to yield hydrogels that shrink upon temperature increase. The new polymer enables the fabrication of cell‐laden perfusable channels with diameters below 200 µm by combining ...

Prob-cGAN: A Probabilistic Conditional Generative Adversarial Network for LSD1 Inhibitor Activity Prediction [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
The inhibition of Lysine-Specific Histone Demethylase 1 (LSD1) is a promising strategy for cancer treatment and targeting epigenetic mechanisms. This paper introduces a Probabilistic Conditional Generative Adversarial Network (Prob-cGAN), designed to predict the activity of LSD1 inhibitors.

Encapsulated crystalline lysine and DL-methionine have higher efficiency than the crystalline form in broilers

open access: yesPoultry Science, 2020
Crystalline amino acids (AAs) exhibit high nutritional values when supplemented AA-deficient diets. However, the AAs in crystalline form in the diet are absorbed quickly than protein-bound AAs, which may take an effect on AA utilization efficiency.

Systematic Comparison of Commercial Uranyl‐Alternative Stains for Negative‐ and Positive‐Staining Transmission Electron Microscopy of Organic Specimens

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Negative‐ and positive‐staining TEM is essential for rapid nanometer‐resolution characterization of organic specimens ranging from nanoparticles to cells. Uranyl salts are widely used negative‐/positive‐stains but are radioactive and highly toxic to users and the environment.

Impact of varying starter amino acid density and energy on 42 d male Cobb MV × Cobb 500 broiler performance and processing

open access: yesJournal of Applied Poultry Research, 2020
Summary: Previous research has shown that feeding high amino acid density (AAD) diets or increased AME improved broiler performance, though the relationship between AAD and AME on performance needs to be further explored. Therefore, the objective of this

Rod‐shaped Polymerized Salicylic Acid Particles Modulate Neutrophil Transendothelial Migration in Acute Inflammation

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Rod‐shaped particles outperform spherical particles of the same volume in preventing neutrophil infiltration to inflamed areas, both in vitro and in vivo. This therapeutic effectiveness is attributed to better cell targeting and decreased cell motility, resulting from the geometry‐driven phagocytosis and inhibited actin polymerization.

Deep-Ace: LSTM-based Prokaryotic Lysine Acetylation Site Predictor [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Acetylation of lysine residues (K-Ace) is a post-translation modification occurring in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It plays a crucial role in disease pathology and cell biology hence it is important to identify these K-Ace sites. In the past, many machine learning-based models using hand-crafted features and encodings have been used to find and ...
