Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

Forming Sequences of Patterns With Luminous Robots

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
The extensive studies on computing by a team of identical mobile robots operating in the plane in Look-Compute-Move cycles have been carried out mainly in the traditional OBLOT model, where the robots are silent (have no communication capabilities) and ...

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

Spatiotemporal pattern formation in early development: A review of primitive streak formation and somitogenesis

open access: yes, 2000
The basic body plan of a number of vertebrates results from two processes that occur early in the development of the blastoderm: large scale rearrangements of tissue via a process called gastrulation, and axial subdivision of tissue in a process called ...

An analytical velocity field of spiral tips in reaction–diffusion systems

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2020
Spiral waves are ubiquitous in diverse physical, chemical, and biological systems. The tip (phase singularity) of a spiral wave is considered to represent its organizing center.

The (Glg)ABCs of cyanobacteria: modelling of glycogen synthesis and functional divergence of glycogen synthases in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

The use of high aspect ratio photoresist (SU-8) for super-hydrophobic pattern prototyping [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
In this work we present a reliable technique for the production of large areas of high aspect-ratio patterns and describe their use as model super-hydrophobic systems.

Constructal theory of pattern formation [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2007
This review article shows that the occurrence of macroscopic flow configuration is a universal natural phenomenon that can be explained and predicted on the basis of a principle of physics (the constructal law): "For a flow system to persist in time

Verification of elastically supported beam model for growth mechanism analysis of rail corrugation

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2020
Rail corrugation that causes the vibration and the noise is a phenomenon in which roughness patterns of approximately regular wavelengths are formed on the rail running surface by trains running.

Organ‐specific redox imbalances in spinal muscular atrophy mice are partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotides

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...
