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

FEBS 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.

Corporate governance and the weighting of performance measures in CEO compensation [PDF]

We empirically examine how corporate governance affects the structure of executive compensation contracts. In particular, we analyze the implicit weights of firm performance measures in explaining CEO compensation.

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

FEBS 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.

Conceptualizing and Modeling Factors Influencing Digital Twin Performance in Industrial Contexts: A Fuzzy Cognitive Mapping Approach

IEEE Access
The concept of Digital Twin (DT) has become increasingly prominent in both academia and industry, particularly in manufacturing. Despite its potential, the effective implementation of DT remains a challenge due to conceptual confusions, the need for ...

Performance Measures in Radiology

Journal of the American College of Radiology, 2014
Performance measures in radiology play an increasingly significant role in health care quality assessment and now form the basis for a variety of pay-for-performance programs, including those administered by CMS. This article introduces the measure development process, beginning with topic selection, followed by measure development and testing ...

Valosin‐containing protein counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its ATPase activity in vitro

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

Characterizing Real-Time Systems And Tasks

, 2007
easures, too, act as filters, imposing a scale of values on performance. To be useful, a performance measure must be compact. That is, it must encapsulate in a very few numbers (preferably a single number) the "performance " of a system.
