Prospecting the protein design landscape
This review outlines the current state of various protein design approaches. We discuss the current possibilities enabled by recently released tools, highlight future avenues to pursue in protein design, and underscore the crucial role of key databases and resources for successful protein design workflows.

The Effect of Early vs. Normal Calf Weaning on Feedlot Performance and Herd Management: A Cross-Discipline Case Study [PDF]
A study of early vs. normal weaning of calves concludes that early weaning improves feedlot production efficiency, reducing per day and per pound feedlot production costs.

Artificial molecular machines and motors—Design and control of nanoscale motion
Molecules are constantly moving because of thermal fluctuations, but random motion alone cannot be exploited to perform directional tasks. Artificial molecular machines use chemical, electrical, or light energy to bias this motion. Molecular shuttles, rotary motors, and supramolecular pumps illustrate how nanoscale movement can be controlled and ...

Leucine‐rich glioma inactivated 1 (LGI1) is a ganglioside‐binding protein
Neuronal hyperexcitability associated with a decrease/absence of the extracellular protein LGI1 has been suggested to be primarily due to the downregulation of Kv1 channel expression. The molecular mechanisms underlying this decrease have not yet been elucidated.

Metastatic niche shaped by host factors influences disseminated cancer cell fate
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 ...

本研究は, 操舵角ゲインおよび操舵力 (復元力, 慣性力および乾性摩擦力) を変化する機能を有する操舵シミュレータの被験者を観察し, 操舵角ゲインおよび操舵力が操舵角制御に及ぼす影響を検討したものである. 被験者が追跡制御を行っているときの制御成績, 主観的評点および生体反応 (SPL, SPR, EMG) の評価を行った. その結果, 主として次の諸点が明らかになった.(1) 被験者は, 操舵角ゲインが大きい場合には精神的負担を受け, 逆にそれが小さい場合には筋的負担を受ける.(2) 操舵角ゲインが大きい場合, ある程度の復元力により制御成績が改善される.(3) わずかの慣性力またはわずかの乾性摩擦力により制御成績は向上する傾向がある.

Young Steers on the Maurice Steers Farm
Photograph of seven young steers on the Maurice Steers farm’s early wheat pasture. The back of the photograph proclaims, “Young steers on early wheat pasture. Usual weight 300-400 pounds when put on pasture. Come off in spring from 500 to 700 pounds.

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

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...
