Function‐driven design of a surrogate interleukin‐2 receptor ligand

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Interleukin (IL)‐2 signaling can be achieved and precisely fine‐tuned through the affinity, distance, and orientation of the heterodimeric receptors with their ligands. We designed a biased IL‐2 surrogate ligand that selectively promotes effector T and natural killer cell activation and differentiation. Interleukin (IL) receptors play a pivotal role in

Multiple ETS family transcription factors bind mutant p53 via distinct interaction regions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Mutant p53 gain‐of‐function is thought to be mediated by interaction with other transcription factors. We identify multiple ETS transcription factors that can bind mutant p53 and found that this interaction can be promoted by a PXXPP motif. ETS proteins that strongly bound mutant p53 were upregulated in ovarian cancer compared to ETS proteins that ...

Responses of grassland soil mesofauna to induced climate change

open access: yesScientific Reports
Climate change can significantly affect the below and above-ground ecosystems. This study aimed to test the effects of induced climate change on the composition of soil mesofauna and vascular plant species in semi-natural grasslands.

Infrared thermography as a possible technique for the estimation of parturition onset in sows

open access: yesPorcine Health Management, 2023
Background This study explores the possibility of using infrared thermography to estimate the onset of parturition in sows. Infrared camera (IRC) and infrared laser thermometer (IRT) were used to obtain the auricular skin temperature of sows along with ...

The effect of irrigation method on the quality and shelf-life of strawberry fruit in organic production [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The irrigation method did not affect either the shelf-life or the quality of fruit. In organic strawberry production grey mould is a major problem. Strawberry varieties differ from each other in disease susceptibility and the quality and shelf-life of ...

The consumption of zooplankton by early life stages of fish in the North Sea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Previous work has shown that during the 1970s, fish and carnivorous macrozooplankton together consumed ~22 gC m-2 year-1 of mesozooplankton, principally copepods.
