Variability of North Atlantic hurricanes: seasonal versus individual-event features

, 2012
Tropical cyclones are affected by a large number of climatic factors, which translates into complex patterns of occurrence. The variability of annual metrics of tropical-cyclone activity has been intensively studied, in particular since the sudden ...

Performance of 3D-space-based atoms-in-molecules methods for electronic delocalization aromaticity indices [PDF]

, 2010
Several definitions of an atom in a molecule (AIM) in three-dimensional (3D) space, including both fuzzy and disjoint domains, are used to calculate electron sharing indices (ESI) and related electronic aromaticity measures, namely, Iringand multicenter ...

Deciphering Small Molecule Diffusion Parameters Across Light Responsive Polymersome Membranes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Light‐responsive polymersomes bearing donor–acceptor Stenhouse adducts (DASAs) enable programmable control over small‐molecule transport across synthetic membranes. By systematically varying DASA density, an optimal functionalization regime is identified that maximizes light‐gated permeability.

A Conserved Pattern of Primer-Dependent Transcription Initiation in Escherichia coli and Vibrio cholerae Revealed by 5' RNA-seq. [PDF]

PLoS Genetics, 2015
Transcription initiation that involves the use of a 2- to ~4-nt oligoribonucleotide primer, "primer-dependent initiation," (PDI) has been shown to be widely prevalent at promoters of genes expressed during the stationary phase of growth in Escherichia ...

Inhibition of α-Synuclein Aggregation by the Interaction Between Protein Disulfide Isomerase and α-Synuclein

Chinese Journal of Magnetic Resonance, 2022
Abnormally misfolded and aggregated α-synuclein (αsyn) is the hallmark of Parkinson's disease (PD). Molecular chaperone protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) has been shown to interact with αsyn and inhibit its aggregation in vitro, but the mechanism for the

Prolyl 4-hydroxlase activity is essential for development and cuticle formation in the human infective parasitic nematode Brugia malayi [PDF]

, 2013
Collagen prolyl 4-hydroxylases (C-P4H) are required for formation of extracellular matrices in higher eukaryotes. These enzymes convert proline residues within the repeat regions of collagen polypeptides to 4-hydroxyproline, a modification essential for ...

Drug‐Free Thrombolysis Mediated by Physically Activated Micro/Nanoparticles

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Overview of particle‐mediated thrombolytic effects (thermal, mechanical, and chemical) and their activating physical stimuli (light, ultrasound, and magnetic field) in drug‐free thrombolysis. ABSTRACT Thrombus‐associated disorders rank among the world's leading causes of death, with ischemic heart disease and stroke as the main contributors.

Protein disulfide isomerase modulation of TRPV1 controls heat hyperalgesia in chronic pain

Cell Reports, 2022
Summary: Protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) plays a key role in maintaining cellular homeostasis by mediating protein folding via catalyzing disulfide bond formation, breakage, and rearrangement in the endoplasmic reticulum.

Supramolecular packing dominant photocatalytic oxidation and anticancer performance of PDI

Applied Catalysis B: Environmental, 2018
The development of organic supramolecular photocatalytic materials requires a deeper understanding of the structure-activity relationship. Herein, the effects of H/J-type stacking on the photocatalytic mechanism and activity of PDI have been investigated.
