Avoiding pitfalls when modelling ligands in macromolecular crystallography
Acta Crystallographica Section D, Volume 82, Issue 9, Page 1016-1029, September 2026.Flawed protein–ligand X‐ray structures can misdirect drug discovery based on PDB‐deposited models. This review uses publicly available PDB examples to highlight potential pitfalls, from absent ligands to incorrect chemistry, and presents a practical validation approach to improve model reliability.The determination of protein–ligand complex structures ...

Advancing AI, Virtue Enhancement, and the Need for Niebuhrian Virtues of Moral Vigilance
Journal of Religious Ethics, Volume 54, Issue 3, Page 294-319, September 2026.ABSTRACT This paper considers the possibility of AI being employed to improve moral character from the perspective of an account of virtues that is psychologically realistic (the HEIS model). It is informed by a Christian agapeic ethic oriented toward goods of creaturely well‐being that ground right action.

Home Is Where the Hope Is: Indicators of Hope in a Rural Community
Rural Sociology, Volume 91, Issue 3, September 2026.ABSTRACT Sociologists have long used a deficit view in their work. However, some sociologists have recently turned to positive emotions, such as joy and hope, to provide a more complete view of marginalized and other populations. Largely, rural sociologists have not made the turn toward positive emotions.

Is Blood Thicker Than Water? The Influence of Kin Within a Bull Shark Social Network
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.This study investigates how kinship (“kinfluence”) shapes social structure in an aggregation of adult bull sharks in Fiji by integrating genomic relatedness, pedigree reconstruction, and detailed behavioral data. It reveals that while genetic relatedness has a small but significant influence on social behavior, especially among males, kin‐category ...

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.Abstract Temporal changes in seismicity rates can be conceptually understood as a response and consequence of stress changes. Dieterich (1994, https://doi.org/10.1029/93JB02581) formalized this relationship using empirically derived rate‐and‐state friction laws, and Heimisson and Segall (2018, https://doi.org/10.1029/2018JB015656) later generalized the

Deciphering unusually large modulations in two related organic hydroxy channel structures
Acta Crystallographica Section B, Volume 82, Issue 4, Page 375-390, August 2026.Two related organic hydroxy‐channel compounds are shown to have unusually large structural modulations.The incommensurately modulated structures of two related organic hydroxy‐channel compounds [(R)‐1‐(1,3‐dihydroxypropan‐2‐yl)‐3‐(octan‐2‐yl)urea, 1; 1‐(1,3‐dihydroxypropan‐2‐yl)‐3‐octylurea, 2] have been determined and compared to the structure of a ...

WE KEEP US SAFE: De‐escalation, Working Time, and Abolitionist Praxis at The Sanctuary
Cultural Anthropology, Volume 41, Issue 3, Page 667-691, August 2026.ABSTRACT This essay explores “de‐escalation,” the embodied practice of intervening in interpersonal conflict and crisis without resorting to police or carceral tactics. Drawing on eighteen months of ethnographic research at The Sanctuary, a non‐profit organization in Philadelphia that provides free social services, clothing, and food to vulnerable ...

Description of the rate‐limiting hydrogen tunneling mechanism for plant 9‐ and 13‐lipoxygenases
Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 7, July 2026.Abstract Soybean lipoxygenase (GmLOX1), a plant 13‐LOX, has long been considered a model protein for non‐trivial, quantum hydrogen tunneling in enzyme catalysis. Hydrogen tunneling mechanisms have also been confirmed for LOXs across mammalian, fungal, and bacterial kingdoms.
