Peptide‐based ligand antagonists block a Vibrio cholerae adhesin

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The structure of a peptide‐binding domain of the Vibrio cholerae adhesin FrhA was solved by X‐ray crystallography, revealing how the inhibitory peptide AGYTD binds tightly at its Ca2+‐coordinated pocket. Structure‐guided design incorporating D‐amino acids enhanced binding affinity, providing a foundation for developing anti‐adhesion therapeutics ...

Deep bed peanut drying using Hukill’s Analysis

Annals of Tropical Research, 2004
A simple model based on Hukill’s Analysis was used in the simulation of deep bed drying of peanuts at various drying conditions. The model was first evaluated using published drying data and then actual drying experiments at different conditions.

Light Field Image Compression via CNN-Based EPI Super-Resolution and Decoder-Side Quality Enhancement

IEEE Access, 2019
Because of the capacity of capturing both the spatial and angular information of the light rays simultaneously, light field images (LFIs) contain richer scene information compared with conventional images, but at the cost of huge volume.

Motion estimation and quality enhancement for a single image in dynamic single-pixel imaging.

Optics Express, 2019
In single-pixel imaging (SPI), a large number of illuminations is usually required to capture one single image. Consequently, SPI may only achieve a very low frame rate for a fast-moving object and the reconstructed images are contaminated with blur and ...

Interplay between circadian and other transcription factors—Implications for cycling transcriptome reprogramming

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This perspective highlights emerging insights into how the circadian transcription factor CLOCK:BMAL1 regulates chromatin architecture, cooperates with other transcription factors, and coordinates enhancer dynamics. We propose an updated framework for how circadian transcription factors operate within dynamic and multifactorial chromatin landscapes ...

Bridging the Divide: Leveraging the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning for Quality Enhancement

Canadian Journal for the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning, 2017
This paper argues a divide exists between quality assurance (QA) processes and quality enhancement, and that the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) can bridge this divide through an evidence-based approach to improving teaching practice.

Disordered but rhythmic—the role of intrinsic protein disorder in eukaryotic circadian timing

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Unstructured domains known as intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) are present in nearly every part of the eukaryotic core circadian oscillator. IDRs enable many diverse inter‐ and intramolecular interactions that support clock function. IDR conformations are highly tunable by post‐translational modifications and environmental conditions, which ...

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

The role of histone modifications in transcription regulation upon DNA damage

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This review discusses the critical role of histone modifications in regulating gene expression during the DNA damage response (DDR). By modulating chromatin structure and recruiting repair factors, these post‐translational modifications fine‐tune transcriptional programmes to maintain genomic stability.
