Christian Bohr. Discoverer of Homotropic and Heterotopic Allostery

open access: yesActa Physiologica, Volume 241, Issue S734, July 2025.
ABSTRACT This essay recounts and revisits the scientific contributions of Christian Bohr, highlighting his pivotal role in discovering allostery about 120 years ago. Bohr's meticulous experimentation led to identifying two distinct forms of allostery: homotropic (single‐ligand) and heterotropic (multi‐ligand), the latter widely recognized as the Bohr ...

Shifting Carbon Fractions in Forest Soils Offset 14C‐Based Turnover Times Along a 1700 m Elevation Gradient

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 31, Issue 7, July 2025.
Climate change impact on soil organic carbon (SOC) pools remains uncertain. Our study sheds new light on the evolution of forest SOC stocks and their persistence (turnover times) along an elevation gradient serving as a proxy for climate variation. Despite the widespread use of soil organic matter fractionation, 14C studies of these fractions remain ...

Simplistic Software for Analyzing Mass Spectra and a Mixed Experimental‐Theoretical Database for Identifying Poisonous and Explosive Substances

open access: yesJournal of Computational Chemistry, Volume 46, Issue 17, June 30, 2025.
We present a new lightweight approach for analyzing mass spectra and a database oriented toward toxic and explosive compounds. The database is Ñ•ompliled from experimental and theoretically predicted electron‐ionization mass spectra. Our results demonstrate that the proposed software Ñ•an assist in the preliminary identification of poisonous and ...
