From junk to function — How weak selection in eukaryotes builds new parts and drives genomic complexity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
How do genomes gain new functional parts? In eukaryotes, which tend to evolve under weak selection, much of the genome is junk. Palazzo and Qiu borrow the logic of Markov chains to show how non‐functional DNA becomes functional through the appearance of intermediate states, which arise due to epistasis, buffering, and biochemical messiness, allowing ...

Principal Component Analysis Based Quaternion-Valued Medians for Non-Invasive Blood Glucose Estimation

open access: yesSensors
For four-channel photoplethysmograms (PPGs), this paper employs quaternion-valued medians as features for performing non-invasive blood glucose estimation.

Neural networks for quaternion-valued function approximation

open access: yes, 1994
In the paper a new structure of Multi-Layer Perceptron, able to deal with quaternion-valued signal, is proposed. A learning algorithm for the proposed Quaternion MLP (QMLP) is also derived.

Commutative Quaternion Matrices

open access: yes, 2014
In this study, we introduce the concept of commutative quaternions and commutative quaternion matrices. Firstly, we give some properties of commutative quaternions and their fundamental matrices.

The Shewanella oneidensis Fic enzyme SoFic targets the switch‐I region of EF‐Tu for AMPylation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fic enzymes mediate diverse post‐translational modifications across all domains of life, including AMPylation. Prokaryotic EF‐Tu can be AMPylated and deAMPylated by the conserved Fic enzyme SoFic. Structural and biochemical approaches were used to characterize the effect of AMPylation on EF‐Tu, SoFic's enzymatic activities, and the enzyme‐target ...

Crystallographic Quaternions

open access: yesSymmetry
Symmetry transformations in crystallography are traditionally represented as equations and matrices, which can be suitable both for orthonormal and crystal reference systems. Quaternion representations, easily constructed for any orientations of symmetry operations, owing to the vector structure based on the direction of the rotation axes or of the ...

Chiral separation of chloroalkanes with the chromatographic column onboard Martian rovers

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Computer image of the Rosalind Franklin Rover of ESA's ExoMars mission. ExoMars is scheduled to land on planet Mars in Oxia Planum in 2029. This area represents an interesting spot to look for biosignatures. Investigations of ExoMars include measurement on molecular chirality. We show that chiral chloroalkanes, that have been identified on Mars, can be

Quaternion Averaging [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Many applications require an algorithm that averages quaternions in an optimal manner. For example, when combining the quaternion outputs of multiple star trackers having this output capability, it is desirable to properly average the quaternions without

Artificial molecular machines and motors—Design and control of nanoscale motion

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Molecules are constantly moving because of thermal fluctuations, but random motion alone cannot be exploited to perform directional tasks. Artificial molecular machines use chemical, electrical, or light energy to bias this motion. Molecular shuttles, rotary motors, and supramolecular pumps illustrate how nanoscale movement can be controlled and ...
