Particle Ratios and the QCD Critical Temperature

, 2010
We show how the measured particle ratios at RHIC can be used to provide non-trivial information about the critical temperature of the QCD phase transition.

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

Complete convergence for arrays of ratios of order statistics

Open Mathematics, 2019
Let {Xn,k, 1 ≤ k ≤ mn, n ≥ 1} be an array of independent random variables from the Pareto distribution. Let Xn(k) be the kth largest order statistic from the nth row of the array and set Rn,in,jn = Xn(jn)/Xn(in) where jn < in. The aim of this paper is to

The (Glg)ABCs of cyanobacteria: modelling of glycogen synthesis and functional divergence of glycogen synthases in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

The Role of Albumin-To-Fibrinogen and Fibrinogen-To-Prealbumin Ratios in the Development of Ovarian Carcinoma

Acta Medica Bulgarica
Ovarian carcinoma (OC) has the highest mortality among gynecological carcinomas in developed countries. Many authors have drawn attention to fibrinogen-to-pre-albumin (FPR) and albumin-to-fibrinogen (AFR) ratios and demonstrated that low AFR values and ...

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Approximating Likelihood Ratios with Calibrated Discriminative Classifiers [PDF]

, 2015
In many fields of science, generalized likelihood ratio tests are established tools for statistical inference. At the same time, it has become increasingly common that a simulator (or generative model) is used to describe complex processes that tie ...

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.
