A Toolkit Modeling Approach for Sustainable Forest Management Planning: Achieving Balance between Science and Local Needs

Ecology and Society, 2007
To assist forest managers in balancing an increasing diversity of resource objectives, we developed a toolkit modeling approach for sustainable forest management (SFM). The approach inserts a meta-modeling strategy into a collaborative modeling framework

An isoform of 14‐3‐3 protein regulates transbilayer lipid movement at the plasma membrane

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Loss of 14‐3‐3ζ in CHO cells confers resistance to exogenous phosphatidylserine (PS) and impairs endocytosis‐independent inward flip‐flop of fluorescent PS at the plasma membrane. RNAi‐mediated knockdown reproduces this defect, while no additive effect is seen in ATP11C‐deficient cells.

Revisiting the Lee-Yang singularities in the four-dimensional Ising model: a tribute to the memory of Ralph Kenna

Condensed Matter Physics
We have studied numerically the Lee-Yang singularities of the four dimensional Ising model at criticality, which is believed to be in the same universality class as the φ44 scalar field theory.

The ubiquitin ligase RNF115 is required for the clearance of damaged lysosomes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Upon lysosomal rupture, an E3 ubiquitin ligase RNF115 translocates from the cytosol to the damaged lysosomal membrane. Moreover, RNF115 depletion impairs the clearance of damaged lysosomes, identifying it as a key regulator of lysosomal quality control.

Universal properties of branched copolymers in dilute solutions

Condensed Matter Physics
We analyze the universal conformational properties of complex copolymer macromolecules, based on two topologies: the rosette structure containing fc linear branches and fr closed loops grafted to the central core, and the symmetric pom-pom structure ...

Comment on ‘High-income does not protect against hurricane losses’

Environmental Research Letters, 2017
Geiger et al ( Environ. Res. Lett. 2016 11 084012) employ two functional relationships to characterize hurricane damage in the USA—either based on GDP (one exponent) or on per capita GDP and population (two exponents).

Organizing the interface—Plasma membrane architecture and receptor dynamics in virus‐cell interactions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

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

FEBS 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 ...

On affine scaling inexact dogleg methods for bound-constrained nonlinear systems [PDF]

, 2015
Within the framework of affine scaling trust-region methods for bound constrained problems, we discuss the use of a inexact dogleg method as a tool for simultaneously handling the trust-region and the bound constraints while seeking for an approximate ...

Establishing usable innovations

Frontiers in Health Services
The persistence of the science to service gap is evidence that evidence is not enough when defining evidence-based programs. Innovations must be developed with attention to the internal and external validity of the innovations themselves so that ...
