The Shewanella oneidensis Fic enzyme SoFic targets the switch‐I region of EF‐Tu for AMPylation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fic enzymes mediate diverse post‐translational modifications across all domains of life, including AMPylation. Prokaryotic EF‐Tu can be AMPylated and deAMPylated by the conserved Fic enzyme SoFic. Structural and biochemical approaches were used to characterize the effect of AMPylation on EF‐Tu, SoFic's enzymatic activities, and the enzyme‐target ...

Invisible but not inaccessible—Revealing transient oligomers formed by intrinsically disordered proteins with solution NMR and complementary methods

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Transient oligomers formed by intrinsically disordered proteins may be ‘invisible’ to direct detection yet remain accessible to solution NMR through equilibrium‐exchange measurements and pressure‐jump experiments. Complementary methods report on mass, stoichiometry, selected distance distributions, morphology, and internal packing.

Environmental factors influencing the distribution of bats (Chiroptera) in South Africa [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Environmental factors limiting the distribution of 37 of the 56 bat species in a warm temperate region (South Africa) were determined using GIS software and the Maximum Entropy modelling technique (MaxEnt).

Transferability of a predictive Robinia pseudacacia distribution model in northeast Slovenia

open access: yesActa Geographica Slovenica, 2016
The main goal of this study is to assess the transferability of a species distribution model (SDM) for Robinia pseudacacia (black locust) to two testing sites in the Prekmurje region in northeast Slovenia.

Membrane composition and thermodynamic identity as boundaries of life for synthetic cell research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
What makes a cell a cell? The boundary of a living cell is not just a wall. Read as a Markov blanket, the membrane separates internal from external states, generating identity and non‐equilibrium order. Can this identity be rebuilt from scratch in a synthetic cell?

Variation in Spatial Predictions Among Species Distribution Modeling Methods [PDF]

open access: yes
Prediction maps produced by species distribution models (SDMs) influence decision-making in resource management or designation of land in conservation planning. Many studies have compared the prediction accuracy of different SDM modeling methods, but few

Developing a quantitative indicator to monitor cetacean distributional change

open access: yesEcological Indicators
Monitoring the distribution of cetaceans is a priority in marine conservation. However, current ecosystem-wide assessments lack indicators on distribution: cetacean distribution maps fall short of quantitative reporting purposes.

Circulating microRNA signatures of cachexia and cancer in Canis familiaris as a comparative oncology model for human disease

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Circulating microRNAs as biomarkers of cachexia and sex‐specific cancer in senior dogs. In 25 client‐owned dogs, four circulating miRNAs (miR‐15a, miR‐15b, miR‐16, miR‐140) were downregulated in cachexia, with miR‐16 the strongest individual biomarker (AUC = 0.899).

Developing Species Distribution Models for Wood Turtle (Glyptemys insculpta) in Atlantic Canada

open access: yes, 2022
The wood turtle, Glyptemys insculpta, is listed as threatened federally in Canada and provincially in Nova Scotia (NS) and New Brunswick (NB). Historic surveying for G.

Projected climate change impacts on habitat suitability of threatened medicinal plants in Himachal Pradesh, Western Himalaya: an ensemble species distribution modelling approach

open access: yesScientific Reports
Climate change is expected to profoundly influence high-elevation Himalayan ecosystems, where steep environmental gradients and narrow climatic tolerances render alpine plant communities particularly sensitive to environmental changes.
