Voltage Sensing in Bacterial Protein Translocation [PDF]

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2020
The bacterial channel SecYEG efficiently translocates both hydrophobic and hydrophilic proteins across the plasma membrane. Translocating polypeptide chains may dislodge the plug, a half helix that blocks the permeation of small molecules, from its ...

Hydrogen isotope plasma-driven permeation through RAFM steel: isotope exchange and helium irradiation effect

open access: yesNuclear Fusion, 2022
Hydrogen isotope exchange in China low activation martensitic (CLAM) steel was investigated by plasma-driven permeation (PDP) measurements in the temperature range of ∼670–920 K. It was found that as H was introduced into D plasma, the permeation flux of

Deuterium plasma-driven permeation in chemical vapor deposition tungsten-copper composite

open access: yesNuclear Fusion
With the potential application of tungsten (W)-copper (Cu) bonding in the plasma-facing components (PFCs) in fusion devices, hydrogen isotope (HI) transport through the W/Cu interface has become a key concern for tritium self-sustainment and operational ...

Effects of helium irradiation damage on deuterium plasma-driven permeation through tungsten coated RAFM steel

open access: yesNuclear Fusion
In future fusion reactors, the first wall will be irradiated with hydrogen fuel (deuterium (D), tritium (T)) and helium (He) with low energies. In this work, the effects of He plasma irradiation on D permeation through tungsten (W) coated reduced ...

DNA and histones impair the mechanical stability and lytic susceptibility of fibrin formed by staphylocoagulase

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
BackgroundStaphylocoagulase (SCG) is a virulence factor of Staphylococcus aureus, one of the most lethal pathogens of our times. The complex of SCG with prothrombin (SCG/ProT) can clot fibrinogen, and SCG/ProT-induced fibrin and plasma clots have been ...

Deuterium permeation through the low-activated V–4Cr–4Ti alloy under plasma irradiation

open access: yesNuclear Materials and Energy, 2020
Vanadium-based alloys are considered as candidate structural materials for nuclear fusion and fast nuclear reactors. Some properties of vanadium alloys are especially advantageous for nuclear fusion facilities, namely, a fast decay of induced activity ...
