Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Solitary wave-induced 2D seepage effects on sediment incipient motion

Applied Ocean Research
Solitary wave theory has been extensively applied to describe wave motions in very shallow water. Previous studies on sand movement induced by solitary waves have typically neglected the effects of seepage flow.

Analytical Ultracentrifugation: Sedimentation Velocity and Sedimentation Equilibrium [PDF]

, 2008
Analytical ultracentrifugation (AUC) is a versatile and powerful method for the quantitative analysis of macromolecules in solution. AUC has broad applications for the study of biomacromolecules in a wide range of solvents and over a wide range of solute concentrations. Three optical systems are available for the analytical ultracentrifuge (absorbance,

Sedimentation, trapping, and rectification of dilute bacteria [PDF]

, 2009
The run-and-tumble dynamics of bacteria, as exhibited by \textit{E. coli}, offers a simple experimental realization of non-Brownian, yet diffusive, particles. Here we present some analytic and numerical results for models of the ideal (low-density) limit

The planar cell polarity protein Vangl2 interacts with the PDZ‐domains of Scribble but not with a unique PDZ‐like domain in Inturned

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...

Evaluation of acoustic environmental effects and improvement method of ecological fish-nest bricks in the Yangtze River Basin: A model-based case study

Global Ecology and Conservation
With the rapid development of the Yangtze River Basin, the issue of underwater noise pollution has become increasingly severe, which has adversely affected aquatic creatures, particularly fish.

Sedimentation record in the Konkan-Kerala Basin: implications for the evolution of the Western Ghats and the Western Indian passive margin [PDF]

, 2007
The Konkan and Kerala Basins constitute a major depocentre for sediment from the onshore hinterland of Western India and as such provide a valuable record of the timing and magnitude of Cenozoic denudation along the continental margin.

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Quantifying Agricultural Flooding Practices for Migratory Bird Populations: A Test Case of Incentivized Habitat Management in the Yazoo–Mississippi Delta (USA) Using In Situ Sensors, Digital Elevation Models, and PlanetScope Imagery

Remote Sensing
The Yazoo–Mississippi Delta is an agricultural production zone and flyway for migratory birds. During winter, agricultural field-flooding practices are routinely used to support bird conservation and local recreational hunting opportunities.
