Smartphone-controlled robot snake for urban search and rescue

open access: yes, 2014
Search and rescue robots would benefit from versatile locomotion ability and hence cope with varying environments. Robot snakes, with hyperredundant body and unique gaits, offer a promising solution to search and rescue applications.

Translophagy—A potential link between autophagy impairment and translational errors

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neurodegenerative diseases are characterised by the accumulation of abnormal proteins and protein aggregates, but their origin often remains unknown. We propose that selective autophagy removes damaged protein‐making machinery, preventing errors during protein synthesis.

Rescue blankets hamper thermal imaging in search and rescue missions

open access: yesSN Applied Sciences, 2020
Thermal imaging for unmanned aerial vehicles is used to search for victims in poor visibility conditions. We used a gimbal-mounted camera for thermo-radiation measurements of body temperature from persons covered with rescue blankets in the hibernal ...

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

open access: yesFEBS 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 ...

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Corporate rescue: a critical analysis of its fundamentals and existence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The current financial climate has created an unsympathetic environment for companies to trade. The economic shift has highlighted the fragility in which companies are financed, operate, and how they identify, analyse and attempt to neutralise financial ...
