Boat electrofishing survey of the upper Turitea Reservoir, Palmerston North. [PDF]

, 2009
The upper Turitea Reservoir is a 12-ha reservoir that supplies water to the city of Palmerston North (Figure 1). It was constructed in 1957 and is located in the foothills of the Tararua Ranges at 40.43208°S, 175,67669°E. The 2,300 hectare catchment area

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

FEBS 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 ...

Simultaneous history-matching approach by use of reservoir-characterization and reservoir-simulation studies

, 2020
Reservoir characterization is the key to success in history matching and production forecasting. Thus, numerical simulation becomes a powerful tool to achieve a reliable model by quantifying the effect of uncertainties in field development and management

Antimicrobial use and resistance in Escherichia coli from healthy food-producing animals in Guadeloupe

BMC Veterinary Research, 2021
Background Selection pressure exerted by use of antibiotics in both human and veterinary medicine is responsible for increasing antimicrobial resistance (AMR). The objectives of this study were to better understand antimicrobial use in pigs, beef cattle,

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

FEBS 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 ...

The quantitative prediction of tectonic fractures of Longmaxi formation in Dingshan area, southeastern Sichuan Basin

Earth Sciences Research Journal, 2019
Tectonic fractures are a significant factor for production of the Longmaxi formation in Dingshan area. The analyse of the distribution and development degree of tectonic fractures is the main research method in present-day.

Iteratively Coupled Flow and Geomechanics in Fractured Poroelastic Reservoirs: A Phase Field Fracture Model

Geofluids, 2021
Fluid-solid coupling in fractured reservoirs plays a critical role for optimizing and managing in energy and geophysical engineering. Computational difficulties associated with sharp fracture models motivate phase field fracture modeling.

The heterodimeric amino acid transporters (HAT) of the SLC7/SLC3 family: A structure−function relationships and relevance to human pathology

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Heterodimeric amino acid transporters consist of SLC7 and SLC3 family proteins arranged in a conserved structural organization. They regulate nutrient transport across cell membranes, supporting essential cellular functions. These transporters also contribute to xenobiotic/drug uptake and distribution.
