Functional comparison of EncB and EncC cargo proteins in iron storage within the Myxococcus xanthus encapsulin

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Encapsulins are protein nanocompartments that play an important role in iron storage. In the Myxococcus xanthus encapsulin system, two cargo proteins called EncB and EncC contribute to iron mineralization. Here, we show that EncB and EncC generate iron‐containing minerals with distinct chemical compositions, suggesting that the composition of stored ...

Evaluating swelling behaviour and durability of geopolymerised expansive soils under cyclic moisture conditions [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences
Soil stabilisation plays a vital role in ensuring the long-term stability and performance of light- weight infrastructure such as railways and roads constructed over unsaturated expansive soils.

‘Guide and Prejudice’— How Argonautes recognize targets across domains of life

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Argonaute proteins use short nucleic‐acid guides to locate and regulate specific targets across all domains of life. Despite striking diversity—from human gene silencing to bacterial immune defence—all Argonautes share a conserved three‐stage recognition logic: guide‐directed sampling, progressive target pairing with a conformational checkpoint and ...

Cerium reduction at the interface between ceria and yttria-stabilised zirconia and implications for interfacial oxygen non-stoichiometry

open access: yesAPL Materials, 2014
Epitaxial CeO2 films with different thickness were grown on Y2O3 stabilised Zirconia substrates. Reduction of cerium ions at the interface between CeO2 films and yttria stabilised zirconia substrates is demonstrated using aberration-corrected scanning ...

Structures of mycobacterial 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA carboxylase reveal carrier‐domain translocation between catalytic sites

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Mycobacterial 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA carboxylase uses a mobile biotin‐carrying domain to shuttle a carboxyl group between two catalytic sites, enabling carboxylation of 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA during leucine breakdown. Cryo‐electron microscopy captures the carrier at both sites and reveals an inward loop movement that may prevent futile rebinding to the ...

The chemistry of stabilised sulphonium ylides [PDF]

open access: yes, 1981
The review is devoted to the chemistry of stabilised sulphonium ylides, i. e. ylides with substituents at the carbanionic carbon atom capable of delocalising its negative charge.

Thermophysical properties of stabilised soil building blocks

open access: yes, 1995
The thermal conductivity of lime/cement stabilised hollow and plain earth blocks, produced from Sudanese soil with the Brepak Press, has been measured using the Guarded Hot Box method. The results give thermal conductivity values for oven dry samples at (

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

open access: yesFEBS 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 ...

Improved processes for the production of soil-cement building blocks [PDF]

open access: yes
Stabilised-soil cement building blocks are an established building material in many areas of the Less Developed World. This thesis has been split into three parts.

Mechanical and Fatigue Performance of Recycled Concrete Aggregate Blended with Waste Tyre Rubber Stabilised with Slag for Pavement Application

open access: yesBuildings
Waste tyre rubber (TR) from end-of-life tyres poses a major environmental challenge. Therefore, recycling this waste into useful applications contributes to sustainable waste management strategies and supports a circular economy.
