From junk to function — How weak selection in eukaryotes builds new parts and drives genomic complexity

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
How do genomes gain new functional parts? In eukaryotes, which tend to evolve under weak selection, much of the genome is junk. Palazzo and Qiu borrow the logic of Markov chains to show how non‐functional DNA becomes functional through the appearance of intermediate states, which arise due to epistasis, buffering, and biochemical messiness, allowing ...

The Suppression Method of Raman Laser Thermal Effect for Sensitive Samples

Laser-micro confocal Raman spectroscopy is widely used to study molecular structure, bonding effects. loading, and bternal stress. The signal intensity and quality of Raman spectra are particularly important for the analysis. However.

Stability of an additive-quadratic functional equation in modular spaces

Open Mathematics
Using the direct method, we prove the Hyers-Ulam-Rassias stability of the following functional equation: ϕ(x+y,z+w)+ϕ(x−y,z−w)−2ϕ(x,z)−2ϕ(x,w)=0\phi \left(x+y,z+w)+\phi \left(x-y,z-w)-2\phi \left(x,z)-2\phi \left(x,w)=0 in ρ\rho -complete convex modular ...

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

FEBS 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 ...

Electrocatalytic Generation and Spectroscopic Investigation of Reactive Oxygen Species in Alkaline Media

, 2018
Liquid oxidation techniques by sub-molten salt media for the effective extraction of amphoteric metal from refractory minerals have been developed. An innovative synergistic process by electrochemical oxidation and reactive oxygen species (ROS) intensify

Chiral separation of chloroalkanes with the chromatographic column onboard Martian rovers

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Computer image of the Rosalind Franklin Rover of ESA's ExoMars mission. ExoMars is scheduled to land on planet Mars in Oxia Planum in 2029. This area represents an interesting spot to look for biosignatures. Investigations of ExoMars include measurement on molecular chirality. We show that chiral chloroalkanes, that have been identified on Mars, can be

Occurrence of the Impurities in Phosphorus Rock and the Research of Acidolysis Process

, 2019
In the process of wet-process phosphoric acid, the impurities in the mineral have great effects on the crystallization of calcium sulfate and restrict the utilization of phosphogypsum.

L‐aspartate oxidase provides new insights into fumarate reduction in anaerobic darkness in Synechocystis sp. PCC6803

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Synechocystis strains deficient in succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) secrete more succinate than the WT under dark anaerobic conditions, supporting that SDH then primarily acts as SDH, not as a fumarate reductase. L‐aspartate oxidase (Laspo) from Synechocystis is functional under anaerobic conditions, reducing fumarate to succinate.

The heterodimeric amino acid transporters (HAT) of the SLC7/SLC3 family: A structure−function relationships and relevance to human pathology

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Heterodimeric amino acid transporters consist of SLC7 and SLC3 family proteins arranged in a conserved structural organization. They regulate nutrient transport across cell membranes, supporting essential cellular functions. These transporters also contribute to xenobiotic/drug uptake and distribution.

Metastatic niche shaped by host factors influences disseminated cancer cell fate

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Metastasis is shaped not only by cancer cells but also by the environments they encounter. This review explores how factors such as aging, diet, the microbiome, lifestyle, and environmental exposures remodel organ‐specific niches in the lung, liver, bone, and brain, influencing where metastatic cells survive, remain dormant, or grow, and ultimately ...
