Brucella NyxA and NyxB dimerization enhances effector function during infection
Brucella abortus thrives inside cells thanks to the translocation of effector proteins that fine‐tune cellular functions. NyxA and NyxB are two effectors that destabilize the nucleolar localization of their host target, SENP3. We show that the Nyx proteins directly interact with each other and that their dimerization is essential for their function ...

Nuclear Pore-Like Structures in a Compartmentalized Bacterium.
Planctomycetes are distinguished from other Bacteria by compartmentalization of cells via internal membranes, interpretation of which has been subject to recent debate regarding potential relations to Gram-negative cell structure.

NMR Based Diffusion Pore Imaging by Double Wave Vector Measurements [PDF]
In porous material research, one main interest of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) diffusion experiments is the determination of the exact shape of pores. It has been a longstanding ques-tion if this is achievable in principle. In this work, we present a method using short diffusion gradient pulses only, which is able to reveal the shape of arbitrary ...

Multi-scale simulation of capillary pores and gel pores in Portland cement paste [PDF]
The microstructures of Portland cement paste (water to cement ratio is 0.4, curing time is from 1 day to 28 days) are simulated based on the numerical cement hydration model, HUMOSTRUC3D (van Breugel, 1991; Koenders, 1997; Ye, 2003).

B cells sense external mechanical forces and convert them into biochemical signals through mechanotransduction. Understanding how malignant B cells respond to physical stimuli represents a groundbreaking area of research. This review examines the key mechano‐related molecules and pathways in B lymphocytes, highlights the most relevant techniques to ...

mSphere of Influence: the Dynamic Nature of the Nuclear Envelope during Mitosis of Malaria Parasites
Sabrina Absalon works in the field of cellular and molecular biology of Plasmodium falciparum, the most virulent parasite causing malaria in humans. In this mSphere of Influence article, she reflects on how the paper “3D nuclear architecture reveals ...

The nuclear pore complex as an entropic gate: theory and simulation [PDF]
Protein chains of the (FG)$_n$ ($n \simeq$ 300) type cap the cytoplasmatic side of the nucleopore complex, which connects the nucleus to the remainder of an eukaryotic cell. We study the properties of three fundamental polymer models that represent these filaments using Monte Carlo computer simulations. Random walks and the worm like chain model cannot

Glutaredoxin (Grx) 3 proteins contain a thioredoxin domain and one to three class II Grx domains. These proteins play a crucial role in iron homeostasis in eukaryotic cells. In human Grx3, at least one of the two Grx domains, together with the thioredoxin domain, is essential for its function in iron metabolism.

O-glycosylation of the nuclear pore complex (NPC) by O-linked N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) is conserved within metazoans. Many nucleoporins (Nups) comprising the NPC are constitutively O-GlcNAcylated, but the functional role of this modification ...
