Enzymatic degradation of biopolymers in amorphous and molten states: mechanisms and applications
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.This review explains how polymer morphology and thermal state shape enzymatic degradation pathways, comparing amorphous and molten biopolymer structures. By integrating structure–reactivity principles with insights from thermodynamics and enzyme engineering, it highlights mechanisms that enable efficient polymer breakdown.

Shading and masking affect the performance of photovoltaic systems—a review
AIMS Energy, 2019 Photovoltaic collectors in the second and in the subsequent rows in a multiple row deployment of PV fields are subject to two effects: Shading and masking both of which reduce the incident solar radiation, and hence reduce the electric energy generated ...

A graph-spectral approach to shape-from-shading [PDF]
, 2004 In this paper, we explore how graph-spectral methods can be used to develop a new shape-from-shading algorithm. We characterize the field of surface normals using a weight matrix whose elements are computed from the sectional curvature between different ...

Competitiveness of winter wheat stands against weeds: Effects of cultivar choice, row width and drilling direction [PDF]
, 2002 The need for competitive crop stands can be regarded as a basic requirement for weed control, potentially reducing the need for direct control measures. One way the crop may suppress weed growth is by the restriction of light through crop shading.

Meta‐analysis fails to show any correlation between protein abundance and ubiquitination changes
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.We analyzed over 50 published proteomics datasets to explore the relationship between protein levels and ubiquitination changes across multiple experimental conditions and biological systems. Although ubiquitination is often associated with protein degradation, our analysis shows that changes in ubiquitination do not globally correlate with changes in ...
