Measuring irreversibility from learned representations of biological patterns [PDF]
Thermodynamic irreversibility is a crucial property of living matter. Irreversible processes maintain spatiotemporally complex structures and functions characteristic of living systems. In high-dimensional biological dynamics, robust and general quantification of irreversibility remains a challenging task due to experimental noise and nonlinear ...

Rho-associated kinase, a novel serine/threonine kinase, as a putative target for small GTP binding protein Rho. [PDF]
The small GTP binding protein Rho is implicated in cytoskeletal responses to extracellular signals such as lysophosphatidic acid to form stress fibers and focal contacts. Here we have purified a Rho-interacting protein with a molecular mass of approximately 164 kDa (p164) from bovine brain. This protein bound to GTPgammaS (a non-hydrolyzable GTP analog)

Our study provides a comprehensive multi‐omics profile of aging, integrating proteomic, metabolomic, and metagenomic analyses across diverse tissues and plasma. We identified the synergistic amplification of the circulating complement system and tissue‐wide immunoglobulin accumulation as key molecular drivers of inflammaging.

Phase diagram of a semiflexible polymer chain in a $θ$ solvent: application to protein folding [PDF]
We consider a lattice model of a semiflexible homopolymer chain in a bad solvent. Beside the temperature $T$, this model is described by (i) a curvature energy $\varepsilon_h$, representing the stiffness of the chain (ii) a nearest-neighbour attractive energy $\varepsilon_v$, representing the solvent (iii) the monomer density $\rho={N \over \Omega ...

rho-rho-N and rho-rho-Delta molecules with $J^P=5/2^{+}$ and $J^P=7/2^{+}$ [PDF]
The rho-rho-N and rho-rho-Delta three-body systems have been studied within the framework of the fixed center approximation of Faddeev equation. The rho-rho interaction in isospin I=0, spin S=2 is strongly attractive, and so are the N-rho, Delta-rho interactions. This leads to bound states of both rho-rho-N and rho-rho-Delta.

Evidence for the involvement of the Rho GTP‐binding protein in egg activation of the ascidian Halocynthia roretzi [PDF]
Eggs of the ascidian Halocynthia roretzi are activated by insemination and by treatment with calcium ionophore, leading to elevation of the vitelline coat. Here we describe the effects on egg activation of microinjection of guanosine 5′‐(γ thio) triphosphate (GTPγS, a non‐hydrolyzable GTP analog), heparin (an antagonist of the inositol 1,4,5 ...

Glycoproteomics and Its Role in Understanding Bacterial O‐Linked Glycosylation
ABSTRACT Protein glycosylation is now recognized as a ubiquitous process observed in all domains of life. Within bacterial species, carbohydrates can be attached to multiple residues with glycosylation of serine, threonine, or tyrosine residues via their hydroxyl side chains referred to as O‐linked glycosylation.

Although we currently have a good understanding of the role C-X-C chemokine receptor type 4 (CXCR4) plays in T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL), the mechanism of CXCR4-mediated T-ALL migration remains elusive.

We show that genetic and pharmacological inhibition of the metabotropic glutamate receptor, DmGluRA extends Drosophila lifespan, improves stress tolerance and alters early‐life locomotion. Several markers indicative of reduced ribosomal biogenesis, a hallmark of longevity, were also detected in these flies.
