DNA ligase LigE increases bacterial transformation with damaged extracellular DNA

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The DNA ligase LigE from the naturally competent Gram‐negative bacterium Neisseria gonorrhoaea increases transformation with cut extracellular DNA. This process is ATP‐dependent and relies on the catalytic activity of LigE; it also requires that LigE contains an intact periplasmic localisation sequence, indicating that ligE functions in the periplasm ...

Second-Order Management – How Second-Order Concepts Contribute to Solutions within Complex Environments [PDF]

Journal of Systemics, Cybernetics and Informatics, 2020
In our daily practice as management consultants we observe disorientation, misconceptions, and open questions about the suitability, limitations, and/or benefits of novel management approaches.

Going viral − Virus‐targeting nanobodies for research, diagnostics and therapy

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The increasing prevalence of viral diseases represents a major threat for global human health. Nanobodies, small binding fragments derived from camelid heavy‐chain antibodies, offer versatile tools for viral research, diagnostics, and antiviral therapy.

Asymptotic behavior of second-order impulsive differential equations

Electronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2011
In this article, we study the asymptotic behavior of all solutions of 2-th order nonlinear delay differential equation with impulses. Our main tools are impulsive differential inequalities and the Riccati transformation.

Comparing the paths of Hedgehog release in artificial and natural settings

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Hh morphogens require solubilization factors to overcome their tight association with the plasma membrane and signal to distant cells, but the precise functions of these factors are controversial. Here, we use published in vivo observations as the most relevant evidence to test their suggested functions and discuss contradictions and gaps between in ...

Oscillatory behavior of solutions of second-order non-linear differential equations with mixed non-linear neutral terms

Frontiers in Applied Mathematics and Statistics
This study primarily seeks to expand upon these developments by encompassing neutral differential equations of mixed type, incorporating both delay and advanced terms, particularly in the case of the canonical operator.

Second-Order Footsteps Illusions

i-Perception, 2015
In the “footsteps illusion”, light and dark squares travel at constant speed across black and white stripes. The squares appear to move faster and slower as their contrast against the stripes varies.

Forced oscillation of second-order superlinear dynamic equations on time scales

Electronic Journal of Qualitative Theory of Differential Equations, 2011
In this paper, by constructing a class of Philos type functions on time scales, we investigate the oscillation of the following second-order forced nonlinear dynamic equation $$x^{\Delta\Delta}(t)-p(t)|x(q(t))|^{\lambda-1}x(q(t))=e(t),\quad t\in\mathbb{T}

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

Molecular 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 ...

Circular RNA expression landscapes in myelodysplastic neoplasms: Associations with mutational signatures and disease progression

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In this explorative study, the abundance of circular RNA molecules in bone marrow stem cells was found to be elevated in patients with high‐risk myelodysplastic neoplasms, and to be associated with an increased risk of progression to acute myeloid leukemia.
