Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Sensitivity of a distributed temperature-radiation index melt model based on AWS observations and surface energy balance fluxes, Hurd Peninsula glaciers, Livingston Island, Antarctica [PDF]

, 2012
We use an automatic weather station and surface mass balance dataset spanning four melt seasons collected on Hurd Peninsula Glaciers, South Shetland Islands, to investigate the point surface energy balance, to determine the absolute and relative ...

Regional glacier melt modeling: insights from surface energy balance and positive degree-day comparisons

Journal of Glaciology
Large-scale glacier mass-balance models often rely on positive degree-day (PDD) melt models, which have known limitations. This study evaluates a relatively simple, elevation-dependent surface energy balance (SEB) model that requires minimal downscaling ...

Downscaling of the global climate model data for the mass balance calculation of mountain glaciers

Лëд и снег, 2017
In this paper, we consider a hybrid method of downscaling of the GCM‑generated meteorological fields to the characteristic spatial resolution which is usually used for modeling of a single mountain glacier mass balance.

Microbiome−host proteostasis crosstalk—An emerging perspective on mechanisms and interventions toward healthy longevity

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

Spatio-temporal changes of glaciers, geomorphology, and meteorological influences on debris flow in the alpine environment: insights from a case study in the Hopar Nagar Valley, Northern Pakistan

Geomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk
Alpine environments are becoming increasingly vulnerable to climate change, as retreating glaciers and abrupt weather shifts lead to frequent flooding and debris flows globally.

Modeling of biobasins of an oil refinery wastewater treatment plant [PDF]

Journal of BioScience and Biotechnology, 2015
The biobasins of the largest wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) on the Balkans has been examined. Samples were taken four times from the inlet and outlet flow. The concentration of the total hydrocarbons, benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, p-xylene, m-xylene,
