Refining the shallow slip deficit [PDF]
, 2016 Geodetic slip inversions for three major (M_w > 7) strike-slip earthquakes (1992 Landers, 1999 Hector Mine and 2010 El Mayor–Cucapah) show a 15–60 per cent reduction in slip near the surface (depth < 2 km) relative to the slip at deeper depths (4–6 km ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

Dizhen xuebao为进一步了解近断层地震动的显著竖向特性和速度脉冲特性，基于NGA-West2强地面运动数据库选取1 706组强地震动记录，研究了竖向与水平向加速度峰值比aV/aH的总体分布特征，并探讨了aV/aH随矩震级MW、断层距Rjb、场地类别和断层类型变化的规律。在此基础上，通过Baker脉冲识别方法选取出140组近断层速度脉冲地震动，并提取出每条地震动记录的脉冲周期Tp和速度脉冲峰值PGVp，研究其脉冲参数随矩震级MW和断层距Rjb变化的统计规律及经验模型。结果表明：近断层加速度峰值比aV ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Bone metastasis in prostate cancer (PCa) patients is a clinical hurdle due to the poor understanding of the supportive bone microenvironment. Here, we identify stearoyl‐CoA desaturase (SCD) as a tumor‐promoting enzyme and potential therapeutic target in bone metastatic PCa.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Comparison between the Effects of Near- and Far-Fault Ground Motions on the Seismic Response of a Soil-Pile-Structure System [PDF]
Journal of Structural and Construction Engineering, 2016 Ground motions recorded in near-fault sites, where the rupture propagates toward the site, are significantly different from those observed in far-fault regions.

Građevinar, 2023 This paper aimed to determine the effects of a pulse signal of near-fault ground motion on the dynamic response of gravity dams, including dam-reservoir-foundation interaction, using different reservoir modelling approaches such as Westergaard, Lagrange,

Tsunami generation by dynamic displacement of sea bed due to dip-slip faulting [PDF]
, 2008 In classical tsunami-generation techniques, one neglects the dynamic sea bed displacement resulting from fracturing of a seismic fault. The present study takes into account these dynamic effects.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...
