A Conceptual Framework and Methods for Studying the Connectivity of Fishes
ABSTRACT Connectivity is a multifaceted concept that has important implications for the management and conservation of marine and freshwater fishes. We developed a conceptual framework that encompasses multiple, interrelated categories of connectedness, including landscape (e.g., structural, functional) connectivity and ecological (e.g., trophic ...

Technologies for Proteome-Wide Discovery of Extracellular Host-Pathogen Interactions
Pathogens have evolved unique mechanisms to breach the cell surface barrier and manipulate the host immune response to establish a productive infection. Proteins exposed to the extracellular environment, both cell surface-expressed receptors and secreted

PPEF2 Opposes PINK1-Mediated Mitochondrial Quality Control by Dephosphorylating Ubiquitin
Summary: Dysregulation of mitophagy, whereby damaged mitochondria are labeled for degradation by the mitochondrial kinase PINK1 and E3 ubiquitin ligase Parkin with phosphorylated ubiquitin chains (p-S65 ubiquitin), may contribute to neurodegeneration in ...

Effects of cobalt in nickel-base superalloys [PDF]
The role of cobalt in a representative wrought nickel-base superalloy was determined. The results show cobalt affecting the solubility of elements in the gamma matrix, resulting in enhanced gamma' volume fraction, in the stabilization of MC-type carbides,
