We present the first solution structure of the Ca2+‐depleted LETM1 F‐EF‐hand through a D676A/N678A Ca2+ binding‐deficient mutant, revealing a closed hydrophobic cleft caused by a unique F1‐helix pivot. The apo LETM1 F‐EF‐hand exhibits regiospecific hot and cold unfolding, sensitivity to physiological pH changes and potential for promiscuous heterotypic

Starvation Stress Causes Body Color Change and Pigment Degradation in Acyrthosiphon pisum
The pea aphid, Acyrthosiphon pisum (Harris), shows body color shifting from red to pale under starvation in laboratory conditions. These body color changes reflect aphid’s adaptation to environmental stress. To understand the color-shifting patterns, the

Hubble red shift and the anomalous acceleration of Pioneer 10 and 11 [PDF]
It is introduced a hypothesis that the gravitational potential in the universe changes linearly with the time. This enables to explain the Hubble red shift and the anomalous acceleration of Pioneer 10 and 11.

Shortly after Rowland's fundamental study of the wavelengths of Fraunhofer lines, Jewell in 1896 observed that the solar wavelengths were shifted to the red side of the corresponding wavelengths observed in the laboratory. This shift became known as the red shift of solar lines, and at first led to various erroneous concepts of conditions in the solar ...

Insertion of the FeB cofactor in cNORs lacking metal inserting chaperones
Nitric oxide reductase is an enzyme found in the bacterial denitrification pathway. The NOR active site contains a non‐heme iron, often, but not always inserted with the assistance of chaperones. Here, we study the insertion of FeB in the subfamily of cNORs lacking chaperones and found a putative channel, conserved in the family, perhaps enabling the ...

The Variation of Optical Band Gap for ZnO:In Films Prepared by Sol-Gel Technique
ZnO:In films with different concentrations (0–5 at.%) are successfully synthesized on quartz substrates using sol-gel technique. The structure, morphology, and optical properties of ZnO:In films are investigated by X-ray diffraction, atomic force ...

Temperature dependence of the Stark shifts of Er$^{3+}$ transitions in Er$_2$O$_3$ thin film on Si (001) [PDF]
Optical transitions of an Er$_2$O$_3$ film on a Si substrate grown by using a metal-organic chemical vapor deposition technique were investigated in a wide temperature (300 K $\sim$ 5 K) and spectral (500 nm and 850 nm) ranges. Numerous sharp transitions corresponding to the Er$^{3+}$ ionic levels were observed, which show Stark shifts induced by the ...

This study explores the distinct molecular mechanisms underlying Lynch syndrome‐associated and sporadic colorectal cancer (CRC). By highlighting the therapeutic potential of targeting the PI3K‐Akt pathway in Lynch syndrome‐associated CRC and the Wnt pathway in sporadic CRC, the findings open avenues for personalised treatment strategies, aiming to ...

Making tau amyloid models in vitro: a crucial and underestimated challenge
This review highlights the challenges of producing in vitro amyloid assemblies of the tau protein. We review how accurately the existing protocols mimic tau deposits found in the brain of patients affected with tauopathies. We discuss the important properties that should be considered when forming amyloids and the benchmarks that should be used to ...
