Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Evaluation of spatial variability of the vegetation cover in arid and semiarid areas using measures of landscape ecology (Case study: Poshtkooh rangelands of Yazd) [PDF]

open access: yesمدیریت بیابان, 2016
Landscape ecology is one of theyoungest branches of ecology science, and especially deals on the study of landscape composition, structure and function.  Landscape elements are such as patches, corridors, matrixalong the border and ecotons.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Study on Casing Patch Technology of Large Diameter Expandable Thin-walled Tubular for Casing Damaged Well

open access: yesShiyou jixie, 2017
The use of low-alloy material thin-walled tubular for casing patch could obtain a larger diameter than the conventional expandable casing patch system. On the basis of the material selection requirements of the thin-walled patch tubular, the structure of

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

The ubiquitin ligase RNF115 is required for the clearance of damaged lysosomes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Upon lysosomal rupture, an E3 ubiquitin ligase RNF115 translocates from the cytosol to the damaged lysosomal membrane. Moreover, RNF115 depletion impairs the clearance of damaged lysosomes, identifying it as a key regulator of lysosomal quality control.

PCR and patch-clamp analysis of single neurons

open access: yesNeuron, 1995
The combination of patch-clamp and molecular biology techniques has made it possible to characterize the pharmacological and biophysical properties of ion channels in single neurons and to screen for expression of specific mRNAs in the same cell. Following whole-cell recording, the cytoplasm of the cell is harvested, and RNA is reverse transcribed into

Epigenetic blind spots – the role of DNA methylation dynamics in stem cell‐based models of embryogenesis

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Embryo‐like structures (stembryos) are an innovative tool, but they are hindered by experimental variability and limited developmental potential. DNA methylation is crucial for mammalian development, but its status in stembryo models is poorly characterized.

Effectiveness and Safety of Different Patch Materials for Supravalvar Aortic Stenosis (Middle-Term Outcomes)

open access: yesReviews in Cardiovascular Medicine
Background: To determine the effectiveness and safety of different patch materials in the treatment of pediatric patients with congenital supravalvular aortic stenosis (SVAS). Methods: 218 consecutive SVAS patients (age

pH‐mediated activation of the lysosomal arginine sensor SLC38A9

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cells monitor nutrient levels via the lysosomal transporter SLC38A9 to activate the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). This study reveals that SLC38A9 function is regulated by pH. We identified histidine 544 as a critical pH sensor that undergoes conformational changes to control amino acid efflux from lysosomes; therefore, it ...
