Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.

On boundary layer in the Mindlin plate model: Levy plates [PDF]
, 2008 This work is related to the bending problem of thick rectangular Levy plates. Series solution for the Mindlin (thick) plate model is obtained and represented as a sum of the Kirchhoff (thin) plate model solution, the ``shear terms'' and the ``boundary ...

Archives of Mechanics, 2018 The major novelty of the article is an application of a two-variable refined hyperbolic shear deformation theory based on studying the bending behavior of functionally graded material (FGM) plates with simply-supported edges.

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

Radiation Impedance of Rectangular CMUTs
SensorsRecently, capacitive micromachined ultrasound transducers (CMUTs) with long rectangular membranes have demonstrated performance advantages over conventional piezoelectric transducers; however, modeling these CMUT geometries has been limited to ...

Conserved binding mode but diverse interfaces of MreC‐PBP2 interactions
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The crystal structure of abMreC reveals a conserved two β‐barrel architecture and provides structural insights into its role within the bacterial elongasome. The abMreC–abPBP2 complex model identifies the molecular basis of MreC‐mediated PBP2 recognition, contributing to the regulation of peptidoglycan synthesis.

Plate dynamics, mantle structure and tectonic evolution of the Caribbean region [PDF]
, 2013 The northeastern Caribbean exhibits high deformation and is fragmented by several faults into smaller tectonic blocks. One of these faults was the site of the catastrophic 12th of January 2010 earthquake. In this thesis I aim to constrain the main forces

A new calculation of the wake of a flat plate [PDF]
, 1975 A new method is presented for the calculation of the wake of a finite flat plate. The method is based upon the recent investigations of the boundary layer near the trailing edge, which led to the triple-deck structure.

Buckling of orthotropic plates with bimoments
Инженерно-строительный журнал, 2015 The paper is dedicated to improvement of plate theory in order to take into account forces, moments and bimoments, generated by nonlinear law of displacement distribution in plate cross-sections.
