The Interplay Between Molybdopterin Synthase and Metal Metabolism Contributes to Pathogenicity in Acinetobacter baumannii

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Pathogenic Acinetobacter baumannii scavenges metal ions as nutritional elements to survive within the host. This study demonstrates that molybdopterin synthase is essential for pathogenesis and full virulence during infection. Molybdopterin synthase subunit MoaE constitutes an intrinsically disordered C‐terminal histidine rich tail, which mediates ...

How Video‐Based Information Affects Farmers' Willingness to Pay for Drone Services

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Professional service for digital technology like agricultural drones lowers transaction costs and scope thresholds for smallholders. Meanwhile, perceptual adoption barriers remain underexplored. We conduct a two‐stage choice experiment with a randomized video‐based information treatment among 384 Chinese crop farmers to measure its effect on ...

Moas stafettpinne

, 2023
Jag är uppvuxen i ett brandgult hyreshus. Så många ord jag från början inte förstod. Inte ens visste om att de fanns. Till exempel ordet humanism. Trots att jag är en person som sovit i sängar skänkta av Lions och har en mamma som använde kyrkans barnverksamhet som barnvakt...

Artificial Intelligence‐Driven Network Pharmacology: A Methodological Paradigm Shift Bridging Traditional Wisdom and Modern Science

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
Artificial intelligence is redefining network pharmacology (NP). By integrating knowledge graph engineering, geometric deep learning, multiomics anchoring, and generative reasoning, AI‐driven NP (AI‐NP) transforms static target mapping into dynamic, predictive modeling.

MOA-2007-BLG-197: Exploring the brown dwarf desert [PDF]

, 2015
We present the analysis of MOA-2007-BLG-197Lb, the first brown dwarf companion to a Sun-like star detected through gravitational microlensing. The event was alerted and followed-up photometrically by a network of telescopes from the PLANET, MOA, and uFUN

Seeds of change: The impact of Ethiopia's direct seed marketing approach on smallholders' seed purchases and productivity

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract While multiple factors explain low adoption rates of improved varieties by small‐scale farmers in sub‐Saharan Africa, a key supply‐side constraint is the limited availability of seed embodying new traits in the volume, quality, price, and timeliness required by farmers. This constraint is partly attributable to classical failures in the market

Development of Biocatalysts Based on Lipase B From Candida antarctica Immobilized on Magnetic Poly(Styrene‐Co‐Divinylbenzene) for Application in Esterification Reactions

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Magnetic biocatalysts can be recovered from high‐viscosity reaction media, such as those used in esterification, via magnetic attraction, thereby streamlining the bioprocess and reducing costs. This work builds on prior studies by providing additional data on how particle morphology influences immobilization parameters and by further exploring ...

Clade‐wide morphological and functional variation of the sauropsid columella

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The columella (=stapes) is the middle ear bone of reptiles that transmits vibrations from the environment to the inner ear. It has been shown to exhibit extensive interspecific morphological disparity in several clades; however, its morphological variation and associated functional consequences remain poorly described.
