Toward a minimal amino acid alphabet for protein design

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Proteins are built from 20 canonical amino acids; however, it is interesting to investigate whether they can also be formed from reduced amino acid alphabets. Using protein design, we designed proteins based on all alphabets comprising 2 to 10 ‘early’ amino acids (those likely to have been present before the origin of life).

Classification of stony meteorites and chondrules – the case of meteorite Jesenice

open access: yesGeologija, 2012
In the first part of the paper there is a description about genesis of meteorites, in particularly about stony meteorites– chondrites, since meteorite Jesenice is an ordinary L chondrite. Chondrules represent main part of the mass ofchondritic meteorites.

Formation of nickel–iron meteorites by chemical fluid transport

open access: yesScienceOpen Research, 2016
The deposition of solid material from the gas phase via chemical vapor transport (CVT) is a well-known process of industrial and geochemical relevance. There is strong evidence that this type of thermodynamically driven chemical transport reaction plays ...

Terrestrial ages of Antarctic meteorites: Implications for concentration mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
Antarctic meteorites differ from meteorites fallen in other places in their mean terrestrial ages. Boeckl estimated the terrestrial half-life for the disintegration of stone meteorites by weathering under the climatic conditions of the Western United ...

Quantification of Sulfur Speciation in Apatites: Comparison of the XAS, XPS and EPMA Techniques

open access: yesGeostandards and Geoanalytical Research, EarlyView.
Key Points Sulfur speciation in apatites has been determined by S K‐edge X‐ray absorption near‐edge structure (XANES) spectroscopy, S 2p X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and electron probe microanalysis (EPMA). XANES provides the most sensitive and accurate quantification of sulfur speciation.

Dawn maps the surface composition of Vesta [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
By 7-October-2011, the Dawn mission will have completed Survey orbit and commenced high altitude mapping of 4Vesta. We present a preliminary analysis of data acquired by Dawn’s Framing Camera (FC) and the Visual and InfraRed Spectrometer (VIR) to ...

Marine migration influences mercury accumulation in anadromous Arctic char (Salvelinus alpinus)

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Mercury (Hg) is a globally distributed toxic metal present in northern natural environments that biomagnifies in food webs and bioaccumulates in apex predator fish, such as Arctic char (Salvelinus alpinus)—an iteroparous species with a circumpolar distribution. Arctic char exhibit a variety of life history types, with the migrating, anadromous

Quantitative FT-IR Analysis for Chondritic Meteorites: Search for C_60 in Meteorites [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 1998
Infrared absorption spectra of 9 bulk samples and 3 acid residues of meteorites were obtained in the mid-infrared region (4000 ~ 400 cm^(-1)). From the known composition of meteorites studied, the possible absorption modes were investigated.

A Portable Magnetometer for Magnetic Measurements of Meter‐Sized Meteorites

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2020
Meteorites contain records of past magnetic fields in the form of natural remanent magnetization (NRM). A key property of meteorite magnetization that provides information about its origin is its dependence on spatial scale.
