Seismic soil-structure interaction for pile supported systems [PDF]

, 2009
Civil engineering structures involve structural elements with direct contact with ground. When the external actions, such as earthquakes, act on these systems, neither the structural displacements nor the ground displacements, are independent of each ...

The Shewanella oneidensis Fic enzyme SoFic targets the switch‐I region of EF‐Tu for AMPylation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fic enzymes mediate diverse post‐translational modifications across all domains of life, including AMPylation. Prokaryotic EF‐Tu can be AMPylated and deAMPylated by the conserved Fic enzyme SoFic. Structural and biochemical approaches were used to characterize the effect of AMPylation on EF‐Tu, SoFic's enzymatic activities, and the enzyme‐target ...

Decoding the Shear Strength of Sand–Concrete Interfaces: The Role of Surface Texture and Bentonite

J
Bentonite slurry is frequently used as a support fluid in the construction of drilled shafts. During the piling process, the slurry acts as a sealant and slightly penetrates the nearby soil.

Laboratory study on pile jacking resistance of jacked pile

, 2022
In order to explore the jacked pile penetration mechanism, in this study, a series of laboratory model tests of jacked pile in homogeneous cohesive soil were carried out. Based on the experimental data, the pile jacking resistance calculation formula was

Leucine‐rich glioma inactivated 1 (LGI1) is a ganglioside‐binding protein

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neuronal hyperexcitability associated with a decrease/absence of the extracellular protein LGI1 has been suggested to be primarily due to the downregulation of Kv1 channel expression. The molecular mechanisms underlying this decrease have not yet been elucidated.

Circular RNA expression landscapes in myelodysplastic neoplasms: Associations with mutational signatures and disease progression

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In this explorative study, the abundance of circular RNA molecules in bone marrow stem cells was found to be elevated in patients with high‐risk myelodysplastic neoplasms, and to be associated with an increased risk of progression to acute myeloid leukemia.

Differential expression of cancer‐related genes supports prediction of poor response to first‐line treatments in T‐ALL pediatric patients with high minimal residual disease

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In the present work, we have identified a transcriptional signature based on the differential expression of six genes (BCL2&MAST4, HSH2D&LAT2, METRN&PITPNM2) that would facilitate the early detection of T‐cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T‐ALL) patients prone to a poor treatment response and could be implemented at diagnosis, along with other risk ...
