Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Non-parametric 3D Shape Warping [PDF]
2010 20th International Conference on Pattern Recognition, 2010 A method is presented for non-rigid alignment of a source shape to a target shape through estimating and interpolating point-wise correspondences between their surfaces given as point clouds. The resulting mapping can be non-smooth and non-isometric, relate shapes across large variations, and find partial matches. It does not require a parametric model

Parametric and non-parametric species delimitation methods result in the recognition of two new Neotropical woody bamboo species [PDF]
, 2015 The Neotropical woody bamboo genus Otatea is one of five genera in the subtribe Guaduinae. Of the eight described Otatea species, seven are endemic to Mexico and one is also distributed in Central and South America.

Hypothesis testing for two population means: parametric or non-parametric test? [PDF]
, 2019 The parametric Welch t-test and the non-parametric Wilcoxon–Mann–Whitney, empirical and exponential empirical likelihood tests are commonly used for hypothesis testing of two population means.

Genomic Selection for Drought Tolerance Using Genome-Wide SNPs in Maize
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017 Traditional breeding strategies for selecting superior genotypes depending on phenotypic traits have proven to be of limited success, as this direct selection is hindered by low heritability, genetic interactions such as epistasis, environmental-genotype

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.

Bayesian non parametric modelling of Higgs pair production
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2017 Statistical classification models are commonly used to separate a signal from a background. In this talk we face the problem of isolating the signal of Higgs pair production using the decay channel in which each boson decays into a pair of b-quarks ...

Modulation of Homer1 EVH1 domain internal dynamics by putative autism‐associated mutations
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The putative autism‐associated M65I and S97L variants of the EVH1 domain of the postsynaptic scaffold protein Homer1 do not exhibit substantial changes in their overall structure or partner binding. Both of them, but especially the M65I variant, show altered internal dynamics relative to the wild‐type domain on the μs‐ms timescale, indicated by the ...

Shape identification method for specified deformed mode of free-form shells
Nihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2014 In this paper, we present a shape identification method of free-form shells for controlling the static deformation mode to the desired one. It is assumed that the shell is varied in the out-of-plane direction to the surface and the thickness is constant.
