Pressure Analysis in the Draft Tube of a Pump-Turbine under Steady and Transient Conditions

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
Pumped-storage power stations play a regulatory role in the power grid through frequent transition processes. The pressure pulsation in the draft tube of the pump-turbine under transient processes is important for safe operation, which is more intense ...

Research on the Flow-Induced Stress Characteristics of Head-Cover Bolts of a Pump-Turbine during Turbine Start-Up

open access: yesEnergies, 2022
Nowadays, pump-turbine units have to experience multiple start-stops every day to balance the power production and consumption on the grid. During the transient process of turbine start-up, the hydraulic forces applied to the head-cover would change ...

pH‐mediated activation of the lysosomal arginine sensor SLC38A9

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cells monitor nutrient levels via the lysosomal transporter SLC38A9 to activate the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). This study reveals that SLC38A9 function is regulated by pH. We identified histidine 544 as a critical pH sensor that undergoes conformational changes to control amino acid efflux from lysosomes; therefore, it ...

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...
