Curriculum Construction and Reform for "Mechanics of Materials" Based on the Training of Outstanding Engineers

Lifelong Education, 2020
The curriculum of mechanics of materials is a professional course for engineering students, which is closely related to engineering practice. Under the background of the current teaching reform, the traditional curriculum teaching mainly focuses on theoretical teaching and ignores engineering practice, which leads to the influence of students ...

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

Effect of seeding technique and scaffold material on bone formation in tissue‐engineered constructs

Journal of Biomedical Materials Research Part A, 2008
AbstractThe aim of the present study was to test the hypothesis that both scaffold material and the type of cell culturing contribute to the results of in vivo osteogenesis in tissue‐engineered constructs in an interactive manner. CaCO3 scaffolds and mineralized collagen scaffolds were seeded with human trabecular bone cells at a density of 5 × 106 ...

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Tau acetylation at K331 has limited impact on tau pathology in vivo

FEBS 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.
