Reconstructing enzyme evolution by protein engineering

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Natural enzyme evolution can be retraced by protein engineering methods such as directed evolution, rational design, and ancestral sequence reconstruction. These approaches reveal how enzymes emerged from ligand‐binding scaffolds, developed varying substrate preferences, formed oligomeric complexes, adapted to environmental changes, and evolved novel ...

Efficient Frontier for Robust Higher-order Moment Portfolio Selection [PDF]

open access: yes
This article proposes a non-parametric portfolio selection criterion for the static asset allocation problem in a robust higher-moment framework. Adopting the Shortage Function approach, we generalize the multi-objective optimization technique in a four ...

Computing the Hessenberg matrix associated with a self-similar measure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We introduce in this paper a method to calculate the Hessenberg matrix of a sum of measures from the Hessenberg matrices of the component measures. Our method extends the spectral techniques used by G.

Investigating transcription factor dynamics in health and disease using FRAP

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
FRAP analysis of GFP‐tagged transcription factors reveals how molecular mobility and target engagement change in response to drug treatment. By combining live‐cell imaging, quantitative model fitting, and statistical analysis, this approach uncovers transcription factor dynamics linked to disease mechanisms, providing a powerful framework for ...

Bernoulli Poisson Moment Exponential Distribution: Mathematical Properties, Regression Model, and Applications

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences
We introduce a new flexible count distribution by combining Bernoulli and Poisson moment exponential (PMEx) distributions. The new model named the Bernoulli PMEx distribution.

Microbiome‐blood–brain barrier interactions in aging — mechanisms and therapeutic potential

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Aging reshapes the gut microbiome (↓SCFA‐producing commensals; ↑pro‐inflammatory outputs), shifting circulating metabolites (↓SCFAs; ↑LPS, ↑TMAO, ↑PAA) that act at the BBB to increase nonspecific transcytosis, alter transport, and promote astrocyte reactivity, heightening brain vulnerability.

Moment arm and torque generating capacity of semitendinosus following tendon harvesting for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: A simulation study

open access: yes
Altered semitendinosus (ST) morphology and distal tendon insertion following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) may reduce knee flexion torque generating capacity of the hamstrings via impaired ST force generation and/or moment arm.

A Kolmogorov-Smirnov type test for skew normal distributions based on the empirical moment generating function

open access: yes, 2007
In this paper tests of hypothesis are constructed for the family of skew normal distributions. The proposed tests utilize the fact that the moment generating function of the skew normal variable satisfies a simple differential equation.

Nutrient/TOR signaling controls adipose mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) to regulate organismal growth in Drosophila

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Animals must match their growth rate to available nutrients. We show that in Drosophila larvae, the nutrient‐sensing TOR kinase controls growth by regulating levels of TFAM, a key regulator of mitochondrial function, in the adipose tissue. When nutrients are abundant, high TOR activity suppresses TFAM, lowering mitochondrial bioenergetic activity and ...

Peripheral lysosomes recruit PLEKHG3 to focal adhesions and restrain protrusion dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proximity‐dependent labeling at the LAMTOR complex revealed the Rho GEF PLEKHG3 as a lysosome‐proximal protein directing the study toward the influence of lysosome positioning on actin dynamics and cell motility. We show that PLEKHG3 colocalizes with lysosomes at focal adhesion sites and observe that forced peripheral dispersion of lysosomes hinders ...
