Long-Term Water Permeability Performance of Asphalt Mixtures under Wide-Scope Void Ratio

Zhongwai Gonglu
In order to compare the water permeability performance of asphalt mixtures with different void ratios after scouring and clogging, self-developed equipment was adopted to conduct vertical water permeability tests, dynamic water scouring-based water ...

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.

The Effects of Altitude Training on the Performance of Open Water Swimmers

International Journal of Sociologies and Anthropologies Science Reviews
Background and Aim: Training in a low-pressure, low-oxygen environment at the plateau is a difficult challenge for athletes who live on the plains all year round. Athletes need to overcome the stimulation of hypoxia to complete training. This paper aims to explore the influence of altitude training on the special quality, technique, and tactics of open-

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Numerical study of water depth effects on the hydrodynamic performance of a shallow-water seismic survey ship’s Z-drive ducted propeller

Brodogradnja
To meet the propulsion requirements of a novel shallow-water seismic survey ship, a Ka+19A Z-drive ducted propeller was designed based on ship model resistance tests using the propeller chart method.

Structural insights and therapeutic targets in Acinetobacter baumannii capsule biosynthesis

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Hypervirulent KL49 A. baumannii's capsular polysaccharide contains the nonulosonic acid 8‐epi‐Leg5,7Ac2, synthesized by epimerization via ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC. Crystal structures of ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC reveal their role in CMP‐Leg5,7Ac2 synthesis and regioselective C8 epimerization.

A Computational Method for Determination of Open Water Performance of a Marine Propeller

International Journal of Computer Applications, 2012
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD), to which research efforts have been focused in the recent past is one of the most effective techniques of analysis of any fluid flow problems. Considerable part of towing tank tests for analysis of propeller characteristics are now being replaced by the CFD simulation on the computers. Here a four bladed Wageningen B

Three phosphatase families form a community: The phosphohydrolases that act upon inositol pyrophosphates

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.

ABL kinase‐dependent phosphorylation of SH proteins promotes their direct interaction with CRK family SH2 domains

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
CT10 regulator of kinase (CRK) and CRK‐Like (CRKL) are signaling adaptors driving cell adhesion, motility, differentiation, and proliferation. SH2‐domain containing (SH) proteins are enriched in YXXP motifs which when phosphorylated create preferred binding sites for CRK family SH2 domains.
