FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

International Journal of Concrete Structures and MaterialsTo minimize the seismic damage to the beam-column joint and facilitate post-earthquake repair, an innovative precast concrete (PC) beam-column joint (SCPJ) with self-centering and damage-controllable capacities was proposed.

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Modelling stem cell differentiation related processes—A practical overview for biologists
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Stem cell differentiation is complex and difficult to control experimentally. This review introduces suitable computational modelling approaches that can support stem cell research, from mechanistic ODE and abstract models to multiscale and deep learning methods.

Resilient Cities and StructuresSelf-Centering Piston-Based Braced Frames (SC-PBBFs) are designed to curtail structural damage under severe ground motions. The self-centering mechanism in this bracing mitigates structural damage during an earthquake, thereby reducing post-earthquake ...

Reconstructing enzyme evolution by protein engineering
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Natural enzyme evolution can be retraced by protein engineering methods such as directed evolution, rational design, and ancestral sequence reconstruction. These approaches reveal how enzymes emerged from ligand‐binding scaffolds, developed varying substrate preferences, formed oligomeric complexes, adapted to environmental changes, and evolved novel ...

CONTACT MECHANISM AND SELF-CENTERING
Veredas do DireitoThe phenomena of self-centering accompany any contact of two bodies. For bodies with a small mass and low dynamic indicators, this phenomenon can be neglected. At high values of the dynamic indicators of the mechanical system and especially under periodic loading, the phenomenon of self-centering cannot be neglected, since its consequences accumulate ...

Structure‐forward targeting of claudins with synthetic binders
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Claudins form the paracellular barriers between epithelial and endothelial tissues at tight junctions and are targets for molecular binders with the goal of modulating barrier permeability. Claudin‐binding molecules are relevant in drug delivery or in altering claudin interactions with disease‐causing proteins.
