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.

Experimental Study on Performance of Heat Pump Cycle of Quasi Two-stage Compression for Electric Vehicle Air-conditioning with Scroll Compressor

open access: yesZhileng xuebao, 2018
To solve the problem of heating in electric vehicle air-conditioning systems and suppressing the high discharge temperature of the compressor in winter, a quasi-two-stage compression heat pump system for electric vehicles has been designed using flash ...

Innovative Methods for Assessing Students’ Performance in the ESP Classroom [PDF]

open access: yesOvidius University Annals: Economic Sciences Series, 2018
Learning is usually assessed through performance, i.e. what students can do with the acquiredknowledge and skills. In its turn, assessment (formal or informal, high- or low-stakes, anonymousor public, individual or collective) is an integral part of the ...

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 ...

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Enhancing workability of high-volume calcined clay blend cement pastes through optimized addition sequences of PCE superplasticizer

open access: yesCase Studies in Construction Materials
The cementitious paste containing a high volume of calcined clay exhibits poor fluidity due to the thixotropic nature of the clay suspension. The study focuses on the impact of the stepwise addition of PCE and protein-based alkaline retarder (PAR) on the

The planar cell polarity protein Vangl2 interacts with the PDZ‐domains of Scribble but not with a unique PDZ‐like domain in Inturned

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...

Tau acetylation at K331 has limited impact on tau pathology in vivo

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We mapped tau post‐translational modifications in humanized MAPT knock‐in mice and in amyloid‐bearing double knock‐in mice. Acetylation within the repeat domain, particularly around K331, showed modest increases under amyloid pathology. To test functional relevance, we generated MAPTK331Q knock‐in mice.

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Calpains dimerize via penta‐EF‐hand (PEF) domains. Using single‐molecule force spectroscopy, we measured the strength and kinetics of PEF–PEF homodimer binding. The interaction is robust, shows a transient conformational step before dissociation, and remains largely insensitive to Ca2+.

Experimental Study on the Dehumidification Performance of Energy-saving and Temperature-controlled Fresh Air Dehumidifier for Radiation Air-conditioning

open access: yesZhileng xuebao, 2015
Based on the climate characteristics of the Yangtze River in China and the disadvantages of radiation air conditioning, an energy-saving and temperature-controlled fresh air dehumidifier of radiation air conditioning was designed to remove fresh air load
