Electron-scale dynamics of the diffusion region during symmetric magnetic reconnection in space [PDF]

Science, 2018
Reconnection in Earth's magnetotail Magnetic fields in plasmas can rapidly rearrange themselves in a process known as magnetic reconnection, which releases energy and accelerates particles. Torbert et al.

Microbial exopolysaccharide production by polyextremophiles in the adaptation to multiple extremes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Polyextremophiles are microorganisms that endure multiple extreme conditions by various adaptation strategies that also include the production of exopolysaccharides (EPSs). This review provides an integrated perspective on EPS biosynthesis, function, and regulation in these organisms, emphasizing their critical role in survival and highlighting their ...

Research on Leak Detection of Low-Pressure Gas Pipelines in Buildings Based on Improved Variational Mode Decomposition and Robust Kalman Filtering

Sensors
Aiming at the complex characteristics of negative pressure waves in low-pressure pipelines inside of buildings, we proposed an estimation method of pressure fluctuation trends based on the robust Kalman filter and the improved VMD, which can be used for ...

Single cis‐elements in brassinosteroid‐induced upregulated genes are insufficient to recruit both redox states of the BIL1/BZR1 DNA‐binding domain

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phytohormone brassinosteroid‐induced gene regulation by the transcription factor BIL1/BZR1 involves redox‐dependent DNA‐binding alternation and interaction with the transcription factor PIF4. The reduced BIL1/BZR1 dimer binds preferred cis‐elements, while oxidation alters its oligomerization state and disrupts DNA‐binding ability.

Conceptual Design and Demonstration of Space Scale for Measuring Mass in Microgravity Environment [PDF]

Journal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2015
In this study, a new idea for developing a space scale for measuring mass in a microgravity environment was proposed by using the inertial force properties of an object to measure its mass.

A network for multiscale image segmentation [PDF]

, 1988
Detecting edges of objects in their images is a basic problem in computational vision. The scale-space technique introduced by Witkin [11] provides means of using local and global reasoning in locating edges.

Mechanistic basis for inhibition of the extended‐spectrum β‐lactamase GES‐1 by enmetazobactam and tazobactam

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is of huge importance, resulting in over 1 million deaths each year. Here, we describe how a new drug, enmetazobactam, designed to help fight resistant bacterial diseases, inhibits a key enzyme (GES‐1) responsible for AMR. Our data show it is a more potent inhibitor than the related tazobactam, with high‐level computation

Scale Development for Environmental Perception of Public Space

Frontiers in Psychology, 2020
We developed a psychometric scale for measuring the subjective environmental perception of public spaces. In the scale development process, we started with an initial pool of 85 items identified from the literature that were related to environmental ...

Improvement of Harris Algorithm Based on Gaussian Scale Space [PDF]

Engineering and Technology Journal, 2019
Features is the description of the image contents which could be corner, blob or edge. Corners are one of the most important feature to describe image, therefore there are many algorithms to detect corners such as Harris, FAST, SUSAN, etc.

Imeglimin attenuates liver fibrosis by inhibiting vesicular ATP release from hepatic stellate cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Imeglimin, at clinically relevant concentrations, inhibits vesicular ATP accumulation and release from hepatic stellate cells, thereby attenuating purinergic signaling and reducing fibrogenic activation. This mechanism reveals a newly identified antifibrotic action of imeglimin beyond glycemic control.
