Conserved binding mode but diverse interfaces of MreC‐PBP2 interactions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The crystal structure of abMreC reveals a conserved two β‐barrel architecture and provides structural insights into its role within the bacterial elongasome. The abMreC–abPBP2 complex model identifies the molecular basis of MreC‐mediated PBP2 recognition, contributing to the regulation of peptidoglycan synthesis.

A Plasmoid Model for Mass Loss from Stars on the Upper Red Giant Branch: The Mass-loss Rate is Controlled by the Number of Density Scale Heights in the Convection Zone

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
Recent asteroseismic determinations of Δ M , the integrated mass loss on the red giant branch (RGB), for fields stars show a trend of Δ M decreasing as metallicity increases .

Microbiome‐blood–brain barrier interactions in aging — mechanisms and therapeutic potential

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Aging reshapes the gut microbiome (↓SCFA‐producing commensals; ↑pro‐inflammatory outputs), shifting circulating metabolites (↓SCFAs; ↑LPS, ↑TMAO, ↑PAA) that act at the BBB to increase nonspecific transcytosis, alter transport, and promote astrocyte reactivity, heightening brain vulnerability.

Revisiting the exoplanet radius valley with host stars from SWEET-Cat

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Context. The radius valley, a deficit in the number of planets with radii around 2 R⊕, was observed among exoplanets that have sizes of ≲5 R and orbital periods of

Stellar evolution models with mass loss and turbulence [PDF]

Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2008
AbstractAlthough chemical separation is generally accepted as the main physical process responsible for the anomalous surface abundances of AmFm stars, its exact behavior within the interior of these stars is still uncertain. We will explore two hydrodynamical processes which could compete with atomic diffusion: mass loss and turbulence.

Evolution of planetary systems with time-dependent stellar mass-loss [PDF]

, 2014
Observations indicate that intermediate mass stars, binary stars, and stellar remnants often host planets; a full explanation of these systems requires an understanding of how planetary orbits evolve as their central stars lose mass.

Constraining the Stellar Mass Function in the Galactic Center via Mass Loss from Stellar Collisions

, 2019
The dense concentration of stars and high-velocity dispersions in the Galactic center imply that stellar collisions frequently occur. Stellar collisions could therefore result in significantmass loss rates.

An epithelial GPR35 isoform supports tumor‐associated transcriptional and metabolic phenotypes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
GPR35 generates two functionally distinct isoforms with previously unresolved roles. GPR35‐short mediates immune‐cell chemotaxis, while GPR35‐long is enriched in colorectal cancer epithelium, where it supports increased metabolism, proliferation, and tumor‐associated transcriptional programs.

Peripheral lysosomes recruit PLEKHG3 to focal adhesions and restrain protrusion dynamics

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proximity‐dependent labeling at the LAMTOR complex revealed the Rho GEF PLEKHG3 as a lysosome‐proximal protein directing the study toward the influence of lysosome positioning on actin dynamics and cell motility. We show that PLEKHG3 colocalizes with lysosomes at focal adhesion sites and observe that forced peripheral dispersion of lysosomes hinders ...
