Obscured star formation in Lyα blobs at z = 3.1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We present results from the AzTEC/ASTE 1.1-mm imaging survey of 35 Lyα blobs (LABs) found in the SSA22 protocluster at z = 3.1. These 1.1-mm data reach an rms noise level of 0.7–1 mJy beam⁻¹, making this the largest millimetre-wave survey of LABs to date.

Structural and biochemical analysis of a B12 superbinder

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
BtuG proteins are vitamin B12 scavengers in Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron, a dominant human gut bacterium. We present crystal structures of three BtuG homologs bound to cobalamin and its precursor cobinamide, revealing picomolar binding affinities, among the highest known for any natural protein.

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 ...

S2D2: Small-scale, significant-substructure DBSCAN detection

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. The spatial analysis of young stellar objects (YSOs) has proven very valuable to describe and analyse star-forming regions and to understand the star formation process. Aims.

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 ...

Chiral separation of chloroalkanes with the chromatographic column onboard Martian rovers

open access: yesFEBS 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

Unveiling a multi-scale view of massive star and cluster formation [Elektronisk resurs]

open access: yes
Massive stars regulate the physical and chemical evolution of galaxies. Most stars within these galaxies, including massive ones, appear to be born in star clusters.

Revealing Multiple Nested Molecular Outflows with Rotating Signatures in HH270mms1-A with ALMA

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present molecular line observations of the protostellar outflow associated with HH270mms1 in the Orion B molecular cloud with ALMA. The ^12 CO ( J = 3−2) emissions show that the outflow velocity structure consists of four distinct components of low ...
