Segregation of female and male workers in Spain: occupations and industries [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper studies female and male segregation in the Spanish labor market paying special attention to differences among industries. For this purpose, it studies segregation when jointly considering differences in 66 occupations and 4 large sectors ...

Current Sex Stereotypes of 25 Occupations

open access: yes, 1977
To investigate current sex stereotyping of various occupations, a list of 25 occupations was given to 89 male and 73 female college students. Results indicate that certain occupations are still considered as “male” or “female” occupations.

Importin 7 mediates the nuclear import of HIV‐1 integrase via a specific interacting interface

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
HIV‐1 integrase enables viral DNA integration into the host genome. By binding to the core domain of the host protein Importin 7 via its C‐terminal domain, the integrase is transported across the nuclear membrane into the nucleus, where integration of the viral genome into host DNA takes place. This translocation is a critical step for subsequent viral

An alternative proposal for measuring occupational segregation [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper offers a general framework in which to study the occupational segregation of a target group when involving a categorization of individuals in two or more groups.

Evolution‐guided yeast complementation reveals functional differences in human PSPH variants

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Ancient genomes can help guide which human genetic variants are tested experimentally. This study applies that idea to PSPH, a gene involved in serine biosynthesis, and uses high‐throughput yeast complementation to compare variant function. The findings reveal measurable differences among selected alleles and illustrate the value of evolution‐guided ...

Respiratory-related limitations in physically demanding occupations.

open access: yes, 2012
Respiratory muscle work limits high-intensity exercise tolerance in healthy human beings. Emerging evidence suggests similar limitations exist during submaximal work in some physically demanding occupations.

Analyzing Occupations in Order to Change Human’s Behaviors and Habits [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Llevamos también un poster.Through clinical experience, observation, and analysis of everyday occupations, specifically the basic one, occupational therapy practitioners are key to get any change in human behaviors or maladaptive habits.

Identifying and characterising a plant GH1 β‐glucosidase that exhibits hydrolytic activity on N‐linked glucopyranoside

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We report the first β‐glucosidase with demonstrated hydrolytic activity on an N‐linked glycopyranoside. The enzyme, native to maize, was biochemically characterised for this novel reaction, and structural modelling of the enzyme–substrate complex revealed several clues to the underlying reduced catalytic rate relative to its native O‐glycopyranoside ...

Structural studies and functional engineering of NanX: an anhydro‐sialic acid transporter from Escherichia coli

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Biophysical characterisation shows that NanX, a membrane transport protein from the major facilitator superfamily (MFS), forms both monomers and dimers after purification. AlphaFold modelling and substrate docking provide information on residues likely involved in substrate recognition for NanX and another MFS member, NanT.

Technological progress and the dynamics of self-employment: Worker-level evidence for Europe

open access: yesInternational Labour Review
In this article, we examine how technology is associated with self-employment dynamics using worker-level data from 30 European countries. We find that, while employees exposed to labour-augmenting technologies are more likely to move from paid ...
