The Shape of FIREbox Galaxies and a Potential Tension with Low-mass Disks

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We study the intrinsic and observable shapes of approximately 700 star-forming galaxies with stellar masses of 10 ^8 –10 ^11 M _⊙ from the FIREbox simulation at z = 0.

Massive Black Hole Formation in Proto-Stellar Clusters via Early Gas Accretion

open access: yesParticles
In this paper, we review our semi-analytic model of stellar black hole (BH) mass growth via gas accretion in gas-rich stellar clusters during their birthstage within the first ∼10Myr after the first stellar formation event.

YlmG1 is localized exclusively to the chloroplast envelope membrane and is involved in preprotein translocation in Arabidopsis thaliana

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Cytosolically synthesized chloroplast preproteins are translocated across the outer and inner envelope membranes through translocons called TOC and TIC, respectively. In green algae and plants, the TIC core is composed of essential membrane proteins, Tic12, Tic20, and Tic214.

Iron homeostasis disruption and lipid peroxidation in skeletal muscle during short‐term immobilization

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
14‐day casting‐induced immobilization reduced gastrocnemius muscle mass and increased non‐heme iron and ferritin heavy chain levels. Despite iron accumulation, transferrin receptor 1 and iron regulatory protein 2 were paradoxically upregulated. Lipid peroxidation was elevated without compensatory antioxidant responses.

Proteasomal degradation of intracellularly expressed Amblyomin‐X limits suicide gene therapy potential in melanoma cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This study explores the feasibility of expressing the antitumoral protein Amblyomin‐X through a suicide gene therapy approach and investigates its intracellular fate after gene delivery. Although the gene is efficiently expressed, melanoma cells rapidly degrade the Amblyomin‐X protein via proteasome activity.

The Impact of Irradiation on the Radius and Thermal Evolution of Transiting Brown Dwarfs

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Masses and radii of transiting brown dwarfs can be measured directly, in contrast to isolated field brown dwarfs, whose mass and radius inferences are model dependent.

Systemic dysregulation of apolipoproteins in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis serum

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal disease that damages motor neurons. This study found that people with ALS show significant changes in blood fats and the proteins that carry them. Several apolipoproteins were higher, lipid balances were altered, and normal protein–lipid relationships were disrupted.

Massive Star Cluster Formation with Binaries. I. Evolution of Binary Populations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We study the evolution of populations of binary stars within massive cluster-forming regions. We simulate the formation of young massive star clusters within giant molecular clouds with masses ranging from 2 × 10 ^4 to 3.2 × 10 ^5 M _⊙ .

The skills required for transition to university and study in biological sciences: A student perspective

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Bioscience students were asked for their opinions on the value and teaching of skills. 204 responded that teamwork, time management and study skills are necessary to reach University, that scientific writing, research, laboratory and presentation skills are taught effectively during their studies, while other skills are gained inherently through study ...

Synthetic stellar mass-to-light ratios for stellar populations

open access: yes, 1998
Evolutionary synthesis models for stellar populations of various ages and chemical compositions are constructed with the approach described in Maraston (1998), in which the Fuel Consumption Theorem is used to evaluate the energetics of Post Main Sequence stars.
