Residual tail twisting in ascidian larvae is stabilized by asymmetric myofibrils that resist bilateral symmetry restoration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...

Time-dependent brittle creep-relaxation failure in concrete

open access: yes, 2016
In real-world engineering applications, concrete is usually subjected to both creep and stress relaxation. Observations are necessary to understand this coupling process.

In-Situ Monitoring of Mechanochemical MOF Formation by NMR Relaxation Time Correlation

open access: yes, 2023
In this paper, we present a new approach to monitoring mechanochemical transformations, based on a magnetic resonance method in which relaxation time correlation maps are used to track the formation of the popular metal-organic framework (MOF) materials ...

Modulation of Homer1 EVH1 domain internal dynamics by putative autism‐associated mutations

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The putative autism‐associated M65I and S97L variants of the EVH1 domain of the postsynaptic scaffold protein Homer1 do not exhibit substantial changes in their overall structure or partner binding. Both of them, but especially the M65I variant, show altered internal dynamics relative to the wild‐type domain on the μs‐ms timescale, indicated by the ...

Cytosine ribose flexibility in DNA : a combined NMR 13C spin relaxation and molecular dynamics simulation study

open access: yes, 2008
Using (13)C spin relaxation NMR in combination with molecular dynamic (MD) simulations, we characterized internal motions within double-stranded DNA on the pico- to nano-second time scale.

Thermally activated charge fluctuations in GaAs double quantum dots [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In this thesis, laterally defined GaAs quantum dots and double quantum dots are investigated by means of real-time charge sensing. A quantum dot charge sensor, adjacent to the investigated double dot system, detects single electron tunneling with ...

Peculiarities of the process of switching polarization in polycrystalline thin films of lead zirconate-titanate [PDF]

open access: yesФизико-химические аспекты изучения кластеров, наноструктур и наноматериалов, 2018
The paper presents the results of a study of relaxation of the dielectric permittivities in constant electric fields upon switching the polarization of thin films of lead zirconate-titanate, crystallized at different annealing temperatures.

Polarization‐resolved femtosecond Vis/IR spectroscopy tailored for resolving weak signals in biological samples using minimal sample volume

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Unique biological samples, such as site‐specific mutant proteins, are available only in limited quantities. Here, we present a polarization‐resolved transient infrared spectroscopy setup with referencing to improve signal‐to‐noise tailored towards tracing small signals. We provide an overview of characterizing the excitation conditions for polarization‐

Rapid magnetic resonance tissue relaxometry in the steady state [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Longitudinal (T1) and transverse (T2) relaxation are the most fundamental physical processes governing the signal intensity and the soft tissue contrast in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

A light‐triggered Time‐Resolved X‐ray Solution Scattering (TR‐XSS) workflow with application to protein conformational dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Time‐resolved X‐ray solution scattering captures how proteins change shape in real time under near‐native conditions. This article presents a practical workflow for light‐triggered TR‐XSS experiments, from data collection to structural refinement. Using a calcium‐transporting membrane protein as an example, the approach can be broadly applied to study ...
