USP9X-mediated deubiquitination of Raptor contributes to autophagy impairment and memory deficits in P301S mice

Cell Communication and Signaling
Background Tauopathies, including Alzheimer’s disease, are characterized by the pathological aggregation of tau protein, which is strongly linked to dysregulation of the autophagy-lysosomal degradation pathway.

Efficient Symbol Sorting for High Intermediate Recovery Rate of LT Codes

, 2010
LT codes are modern and efficient rateless forward error correction (FEC) codes with close to channel capacity performance. Nevertheless, in intermediate range where the number of received encoded symbols is less than the number of source symbols, LT ...

Unlocking landscape transient dynamics: Integrating traditional ecological knowledge for enhanced analysis of land‐use changes and forest expansion in a Mediterranean ecosystem

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The Industrial Revolution triggered rural abandonment in Europe and had a profound impact on land configuration and ecosystem dynamics, mainly the growth of forests at the expense of open agricultural habitats. However, rural abandonment has been asynchronous in space and time, depending on regional socio‐economic dynamics.

Exposure to rodenticides in Northern Spotted and Barred Owls on remote forest lands in northwestern California: evidence of food web contamination

Avian Conservation and Ecology, 2018
The documentation of anticoagulant rodenticides (AR) in nontarget species has centered around wildlife that inhabit urban or agricultural settings. However, recent studies in California have shown that AR use in remote forest settings has escalated and ...

Rateless Codes with Progressive Recovery for Layered Multimedia Delivery

, 2012
This paper proposes a novel approach, based on unequal error protection, to enhance rateless codes with progressive recovery for layered multimedia delivery. With a parallel encoding structure, the proposed Progressive Rateless codes (PRC) assign unequal

Sex matters: European urban birds flee approaching women sooner than approaching men

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Flight initiation distance (FID) is a metric often used to study an individual's perceptions of risk when facing a predatory threat. Longer FID indicates lower risk‐taking, while shorter FID identifies bolder individuals who tolerate greater risk.

Electrocution of raptors at power lines in Central Kazakhstan [PDF]

, 2013
Along three transects of medium voltage power lines in the steppe of Central Kazakhstan, surveys for bird casualties were carried out in summer 2006 in order to estimate the quantitative and qualitative impact of power lines on bird mortality in this ...

Brownotate, a Comprehensive Solution to Generate Protein Sequence Databases for Any Species

PROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Proteomics is strengthening research in biology and the diversification of the model organisms studied is very promising for fully understanding the complexity of biological principles. However, the lack of protein sequence databases for many species is a major bottleneck.

The European honey buzzard (Pernis apivorus) as an ally for the control of the invasive yellow‐legged hornet (Vespa velutina nigrithorax)

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 2237-2247, April 2025.
The predatory effect of the honey‐buzzard affects the reproductive performance of Asian‐hornet colonies, decreasing the density of workers over distance and time. The foraging distances of the honey‐buzzard concentrates within the first 2000 m from nest, which supports the results observed.
