Modeling the Shape and Evolution of Normal‐Fault Facets [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, 2020
Facets formed along the footwalls of active normal‐fault blocks display a variety of longitudinal profile forms, with variations in gradient, shape, degree of soil cover, and presence or absence of a slope break at the fault trace. We show that a two‐dimensional, process‐oriented cellular automaton model of facet profile evolution can account for the ...

Enteropathogenic E. coli shows delayed attachment and host response in human jejunum organoid‐derived monolayers compared to HeLa cells

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

A Fault-Tolerant Scheme for Mobility Management in PCS Networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
[[abstract]]One of the most important and challenging issues in the design of personal communication service (PCS) systems is the management of location information.

Major active faults and recent coseismic surface rupture characteristics of the Horba-Tsam Tso rift in southern Tibet

open access: yes地震科学进展
The Horba-Tsam Tso rift is one of the major rift systems in southern Tibet, with a general strike of N20°E and a total length of about 200 km, containing 20 parallel or oblique secondary fault zones and graben-half graben systems.

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

open access: yesFEBS 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 ...

Varying the fault-normal and shear-parallel stiffness during laboratory shear experiments

open access: yes, 2023
The potential of faults to show earthquake-generating slip instabilities depends not only on the intrinsic frictional properties of the fault zone, but also on the elasticity of the surrounding material.

The (Glg)ABCs of cyanobacteria: modelling of glycogen synthesis and functional divergence of glycogen synthases in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

open access: yesFEBS 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.

A new analytical method for calculating the strain of oil and gas pipeline under a normal fault dislocation

open access: yesEnergy Science & Engineering, 2023
Oil and gas pipelines that go through an active normal fault often deform largely and cause serious disasters. On the basis of the beam theory of the elastic foundation and assuming a shape function for the deformed pipeline, a new analytical method is ...

Kinematics of Normal Faults

open access: yes, 2021
Continental extension is accommodated by normal faults, and fault growth is achieved by increases in length (L) and displacement (D). When normal fault length and displacement were initially studied in the 1970’s and 80’s, it was assumed that faults maintain a constant D/L ratio from initiation to cessation, growing via sympathetic increases in ...

Organ‐specific redox imbalances in spinal muscular atrophy mice are partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotides

open access: yesFEBS 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 ...
