Infection control and outcome of staged reverse shoulder arthroplasty for the management of shoulder infections

open access: yesJSES International, 2020
Background: The treatment of septic arthritis, caused by either hematogenous seeding, injections, or surgery, can be challenging. Staged reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) with temporary implantation of an antibiotic-loaded spacer is widely accepted but

Enhancement of the superconducting transition temperature of FeSe by intercalation of a molecular spacer layer. [PDF]

open access: yesNature Materials, 2012
The discovery of high-temperature superconductivity in a layered iron arsenide has led to an intensive search to optimize the superconducting properties of iron-based superconductors by changing the chemical composition of the spacer layer between ...

Reconstructing enzyme evolution by protein engineering

open access: yesFEBS 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 ...

Spacer-Programmed Two-Dimensional DNA Origami Assembly

open access: yes
Two-dimensional (2D) DNA origami assembly represents a powerful approach to the programmable design and construction of advanced 2D materials. Within the context of hybridization-mediated 2D DNA origami assembly, DNA spacers play a pivotal role as ...

Spacer-Assisted Amine-Coiled Carbon Nanotubes for CO2 Capture

open access: yes, 2019
Architecture of a DNA-wrapped carbon nanotube (CNT) inspires rational design of a polymer-wrapped CNT effective for CO2 capture. Polyethyleneimine (PEI) selected as a spiral wrapper of CNT is modified by insertion of spacer molecules loaded with amino ...

Computational fluid dynamics simulations of solar-assisted, spacer-filled direct contact membrane distillation: Seeking performance improvement

open access: yes, 2023
Significant downstream performance reduction and concentration polarisation reduce direct contact membrane distillation (DCMD) efficiency. These challenges are not well researched since they are difficult to implement experimentally and numerically ...

Decoding the dynamic extracellular matrix in cancer—3D models and bioscaffolds rewire the rules of tumor progression

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cancer progression is regulated by the dynamic matrix code of the tumor microenvironment, which influences cellular behavior and disease development. Importantly, matrix remodeling in three‐dimensional cancer models more accurately reflects in vivo conditions compared to conventional two‐dimensional systems.

Cas1–Cas2 complex formation mediates spacer acquisition during CRISPR–Cas adaptive immunity

open access: yesNature Structural &Molecular Biology, 2014
The initial stage of CRISPR–Cas immunity involves the integration of foreign DNA spacer segments into the host genomic CRISPR locus. The nucleases Cas1 and Cas2 are the only proteins conserved among all CRISPR–Cas systems, yet the molecular functions of ...

Identification of a Shiga toxin A‐derived peptide internalized into Gb3 receptor‐bearing cells via interaction with the Shiga toxin B subunit

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The process of internalization of the Shiga toxin A subunit via formation of a complex with the Shiga toxin B subunit, which specifically binds to the Gb3 receptor. The peptide is designed to act as a carrier of drugs into cancer cells. Here, we explored the potential of peptides derived from the catalytic A subunit of Shiga toxin (STxA) to be drug ...

The non-signaling extracellular spacer domain of chimeric antigen receptors is decisive for in vivo antitumor activity

open access: yesCancer immunology research, 2014
Hudecek, Sommermeyer, and colleagues show that modifications of the length and composition of the extracellular spacer of a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) that abrogate its binding to Fc receptors can prevent off-target activation of CAR T cells and ...
