In situ imaging of microstructure formation in electronic interconnections [PDF]

, 2016
The development of microstructure during melting, reactive wetting and solidification of solder pastes on Cu-plated printed circuit boards has been studied by synchrotron radiography.

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

Transient convective instabilities in directional solidification [PDF]

, 2010
We study the convective instability of the melt during the initial transient in a directional solidification experiment in a vertical configuration. We obtain analytically the dispersion relation, and perform an additional asymptotic expansion for large ...

Cell wall target fragment discovery using a low‐cost, minimal fragment library

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
LoCoFrag100 is a fragment library made up of 100 different compounds. Similarity between the fragments is minimized and 10 different fragments are mixed into a single cocktail, which is soaked to protein crystals. These crystals are analysed by X‐ray crystallography, revealing the binding modes of the bound fragment ligands.

Metastable microstructure evolution and grain refinement in a Low-Ta containing γ-TiAl alloy through heat treatment

Journal of Materials Research and Technology
The paper comprehensively describes the evolution of metastable microstructures in a cast low-Ta-containing γ-TiAl alloy during cooling-tempering-lamellarization heat treatments. The behavior and mechanism of microstructure refinement are discussed.

The (Glg)ABCs of cyanobacteria: modelling of glycogen synthesis and functional divergence of glycogen synthases in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

Curvature and solidification [PDF]

Journal of Computational Physics, 1985
A method is presented for finding the osculating circle, and thus the curvature and the normal, of a curve defined by an array of partial volumes. This method is applied, within the framework of an enthalpy formulation, to the solutions of model equations that describe the motion of a front separating ice and supercooled water.

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 ...

Crystal plasticity modeling of deformation behavior of Al–Al2Cu eutectics based on high-fidelity representative microstructures

Journal of Materials Research and Technology
A comprehensive understanding of material deformation behavior holds importance in enhancing the properties of materials, which can be achieved through modeling the relationship between microstructure and deformation behavior by an appropriate crystal ...
