Phase-Separation-Induced PVDF/Graphene Coating on Fabrics toward Flexible Piezoelectric Sensors

, 2018
Clothing-integrated piezoelectric sensors possess great potential for future wearable electronics. In this paper, we reported a phase-separation approach to fabricate flexible piezoelectric sensors based on poly­(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF)/graphene ...

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent

FEBS 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+.

Phase separation with nonlocal interactions

Physical Review Research
Phase separation in complex systems is a ubiquitous phenomenon. While simple theories predict coarsening until only macroscopically large phases remain, concrete models often exhibit patterns with finite length scales.

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.

Separation of p-Nitrophenol and o-Nitrophenol with three-liquid-phase extraction system

, 2009
Three-liquid-phase systems containing polyethylene glycol with different molecular weight were explored to investigate the partitioning behavior of simulated wastewater-containing isomers of p-Nitrophenol (p-NP) and o-Nitrophenot (o-NP). The distribution

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids

FEBS 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.

Viscoelastic phase separation in biological cells

Communications Physics, 2022
Phase separation phenomenon is a possible mechanism for important biological functions, from facilitating transcription by condensate formation, to the transport of cargo in the cell.

Residual tail twisting in ascidian larvae is stabilized by asymmetric myofibrils that resist bilateral symmetry restoration

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...
