Seismic control of flexible rocking structures using inerters

open access: yesEarthquake engineering & structural dynamics (Print), 2020
Allowing flexible structures to uplift and rock during earthquakes can significantly reduce the force demands and residual displacements. However, such structures are still susceptible to large deformations and accelerations that can compromise their ...

Biophysical approaches for studying viral entry

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Viruses infect all living organisms and have been responsible for major epidemics and pandemics. Their ongoing evolutionary battle with host defenses creates a constant need for improved tools to study viral behavior. Advancing methods to probe viral attachment, fusion, and genome release deepen our understanding of how infections begin and support the

Hypothesis: The Vestibular and Cerebellar Basis of the Mal de Debarquement Syndrome

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2018
The Mal de Debarquement syndrome (MdDS) generally follows sea voyages, but it can occur after turbulent flights or spontaneously. The primary features are objective or perceived continuous rocking, swaying, and/or bobbing at 0.2 Hz after sea voyages or 0.

ABL kinase‐dependent phosphorylation of SH proteins promotes their direct interaction with CRK family SH2 domains

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
CT10 regulator of kinase (CRK) and CRK‐Like (CRKL) are signaling adaptors driving cell adhesion, motility, differentiation, and proliferation. SH2‐domain containing (SH) proteins are enriched in YXXP motifs which when phosphorylated create preferred binding sites for CRK family SH2 domains.

Bifurcation Phenomena in Rocking [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
In this paper, bifurcation phenomena of rocking of a rectangular parallelopiped block are dealt with. Since the rocking is a typical nonlinear vibration, the equations of motion are solved numerically and bifurcation diagrams, fixed points and invariant ...

Rocking Promotes Sleep in Mice through Rhythmic Stimulation of the Vestibular System.

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2019
Rocking has long been known to promote sleep in infants and, more recently, also in adults, increasing NREM sleep stage N2 and enhancing EEG slow waves and spindles.

Structural and biochemical analysis of a B12 superbinder

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
BtuG proteins are vitamin B12 scavengers in Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron, a dominant human gut bacterium. We present crystal structures of three BtuG homologs bound to cobalamin and its precursor cobinamide, revealing picomolar binding affinities, among the highest known for any natural protein.

Closed-form overturning limit of rigid block under critical near-fault ground motions

open access: yesFrontiers in Built Environment, 2016
A closed-form limit on the input level of the double impulse as a substitute of a near-fault ground motion is derived for the overturning of a rigid block.

Chiral separation of chloroalkanes with the chromatographic column onboard Martian rovers

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Computer image of the Rosalind Franklin Rover of ESA's ExoMars mission. ExoMars is scheduled to land on planet Mars in Oxia Planum in 2029. This area represents an interesting spot to look for biosignatures. Investigations of ExoMars include measurement on molecular chirality. We show that chiral chloroalkanes, that have been identified on Mars, can be
