Structural and Biochemical Characterization of a Widespread Enterobacterial Peroxidase Encapsulin

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Encapsulins are self‐assembling bacterial protein compartments loaded with cargo enzymes. The most abundant encapsulin cargo class are Dye‐decolorizing Peroxidases (DyPs). In this study, we structurally and biochemically characterize a DyP encapsulin found in many enterobacteria.

The relationship between chlorophyllous spores and mycorrhizal associations in ferns: evidence from an evolutionary approach

American Journal of Botany, Volume 109, Issue 12, Page 2068-2081, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Premise Approximately 14% of all fern species have physiologically active chlorophyllous spores that are much more short‐lived than the more common and dormant achlorophyllous spores. Most chlorophyllous‐spored species (70%) are epiphytes and account for almost 37% of all epiphytic ferns.

Demystifying CO2: lessons from nutrition labeling and step counting [PDF]

arXiv
There is growing concern about climate change and increased interest in taking action. However, people have difficulty understanding abstract units like CO2 and the relative environmental impact of different behaviors. This position piece explores findings from nutritional labeling and step counting research, two domains aimed at making abstract ...

Electroactive Electrospun Nanofibrous Scaffolds: Innovative Approaches for Improved Skin Wound Healing

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This review explores the potential of electroactive electrospun nanofibrous (EEN) scaffolds for enhanced skin wound healing. It discusses how a variety of electroactive materials can be prepared into EEN scaffolds via electrospinning technology, and their applications in various wound types. The review provides insights into the future perspectives for

Elemental models of primate nursing and weaning revisited

American Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 180, Issue 1, Page 216-223, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Objectives Intra‐tooth patterns of trace elements barium (Ba) and strontium (Sr) have been used to infer human and nonhuman primate nursing histories, including australopithecine and Neanderthal juveniles. Here, we contrast the two elemental models in first molars (M1s) of four wild baboons and explore the assumptions that underlie each ...

MealMeter: Using Multimodal Sensing and Machine Learning for Automatically Estimating Nutrition Intake [PDF]

arXiv
Accurate estimation of meal macronutrient composition is a pre-perquisite for precision nutrition, metabolic health monitoring, and glycemic management. Traditional dietary assessment methods, such as self-reported food logs or diet recalls are time-intensive and prone to inaccuracies and biases. Several existing AI-driven frameworks are data intensive.

Wood Biomolecules as Agricultural Adjuvants for Effective Suppression of Droplet Rebound from Plant Foliage

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Lignin and hemicellulose are used to develop agricultural adjuvants to decrease agrochemical run‐off from foliage, by suppressing droplet rebound and enhancing adhesion of aqueous solutions on plant leaves. The wood components combine surface activity with surface pinning effects and to improve by tenfold the droplet rebound in citrus leaves ...

Highly Oriented SiC@SiO2 Ceramic Fiber Aerogels with Good Anisotropy of the Thermal Conductivity and High‐Temperature Resistance

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The anisotropic‐structure SiC@SiO2 ceramic fiber aerogels feature aligned layers stacking layer‐by‐layer with the same direction and highly oriented 1D fibers inside each layer, resulting in an anisotropy factor as high as 5.08. Not only does it have 60% high recoverable deformation, but it also shows great promise for thermal protection in extreme ...
