Microbially Influenced Corrosion in Epoxy‐Ceramic Coated Carbon‐Steel Cooler
Materials and Corrosion, EarlyView.A significant localization of corrosion attacks up to 1 mm deep were found in coated carbon‐steel cooler. Corrosion products and biofilm were enriched in mixed bacterial community including the genera Sulfuritalea and Methylotenera. Analysis of metabolic markers confirmed their coexistence with sulfate‐reducing bacteria.

Virus-Encoded Ribonucleotide Reductases [PDF]
arXiv, 2014 Ribonucleotide reductases are encoded by many viruses, but without other enzymes of nucleotide metabolism of no obvious use. A look at the enzymes' molecular properties and their possible mutator action may give clues.

How native state topology affects the folding of Dihydrofolate Reductase and Interleukin-1beta [PDF]
, 2000 The overall structure of the transition state and intermediate ensembles experimentally observed for Dihydrofolate Reductase and Interleukin-1beta can be obtained utilizing simplified models which have almost no energetic frustration. The predictive power of these models suggest that, even for these very large proteins with completely different folding
