Functionally related internal fluctuations in human ileal bile acid‐binding protein by high pressure nuclear magnetic resonance

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Hidden protein states with partially unfolded regions can have a functional relevance and may also contribute to an uncontrolled self‐association of proteins leading to pathological conditions. Human ileal bile acid‐binding protein (hI‐BABP), a member of the family of intracellular lipid‐binding proteins (iLBPs), plays a key role in the ...

Structural Analysis and Inhibitor Modeling of Bacterioferritin From Brucella abortus

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, Volume 94, Issue 6, Page 1170-1181, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Iron homeostasis in various pathogenic bacteria is regulated by bacterioferritins (Bfr) which function to store Fe3+ and release Fe2+ as needed for metabolic processes. The Bfr structure consists of 18 kDa subunits in which dimer pairs bind a heme molecule and are assembled into a highly symmetrical 24‐meric spherical structure with an ...

On Gamification in the Context of Education: A Systematic Review and Evaluation Framework

Computer Applications in Engineering Education, Volume 34, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The application of gamification techniques in education is becoming increasingly common across different educational stages and disciplines. However, the widespread acceptance of their benefits leads to their implementation without verifying whether these benefits occur, what they are, and to what extent.

Structural insights into how vacuolar sorting receptor recognizes the C‐terminal sorting determinant of a vicilin‐like seed storage protein

The FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 1, Page 257-270, January 2026.
Soluble cargo proteins are sorted to the vacuoles via a receptor‐mediated mechanism. Combining crystallographic and mutagenesis studies, we showed how the C‐terminal sorting determinant (ctVSD) of vicilin‐like seed storage protein VL22 is recognized by the protease‐associated domain of Arabidopsis vacuolar‐sorting receptor 1.

Barriers to Changing Sedation Practice for Patients Undergoing Mechanical Ventilation on the Intensive Care Unit: A Qualitative Interview Study of Clinical Staff

Nursing in Critical Care, Volume 31, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Medical sedation is a requirement for mechanical ventilation for most patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU). Sedation can help minimise patient discomfort, pain and distress, but can lead to hypotension, bradycardia, prolonged ventilation and delirium.

Health‐Related Quality of Life in Patients With a Head and Neck Sarcoma: A Mixed‐Methods Study

Head &Neck, Volume 47, Issue 11, Page 3086-3097, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Patients with head and neck sarcomas (HNS) face unique health‐related quality of life (HRQoL) challenges due to its disease rarity. This study examined and identified the prevalence of generic‐ and location‐specific HRQoL issues.
