The newfound relationship between extrachromosomal DNAs and excised signal circles

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Extrachromosomal DNAs (ecDNAs) contribute to the progression of many human cancers. In addition, circular DNA by‐products of V(D)J recombination, excised signal circles (ESCs), have roles in cancer progression but have largely been overlooked. In this Review, we explore the roles of ecDNAs and ESCs in cancer development, and highlight why these ...

Considerations for electromagnetic simulations for a quantitative correlation of optical spectroscopy and electron tomography of plasmonic nanoparticles

Nanophotonics
The optical cross sections of plasmonic nanoparticles are intricately linked to their morphologies. Accurately capturing this link could allow determination of particles’ shapes from their optical cross sections alone.

Unveiling processing-structure-property correlations in SiO2-Cr-Au composite thin films from molecular dynamics simulations

Results in Surfaces and Interfaces
Precisely-engineered thin films are essential for many technological applications such as coatings, sensors and semiconductor devices. Since the microstructure of thin films, and thereby, their functionality is shaped by the processing conditions, it is ...

Correlating point defects with mechanical properties in nanocrystalline TiN thin films

Materials & Design, 2021
Defects significantly affect the mechanical properties of materials. However, quantitatively correlating the point defects with mechanical property could be a challenge.

Evolving morphotropic phase boundary in lead-free (Bi1/2Na1/2)TiO3–BaTiO3 piezoceramics [PDF]

, 2011
The correlation between structure and electrical properties of lead-free (1-x)(Bi(1/2)Na(1/2))TiO(3)-xBaTiO(3) (BNT-100xBT) polycrystalline piezoceramics was investigated systematically by in situ synchrotron diffraction technique, combined with ...

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

On the Hardness of SAT with Community Structure

, 2016
Recent attempts to explain the effectiveness of Boolean satisfiability (SAT) solvers based on conflict-driven clause learning (CDCL) on large industrial benchmarks have focused on the concept of community structure.

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Interactions, structure and properties in poly(lactic acid)/thermoplastic polymer blends

eXPRESS Polymer Letters, 2014
Blends were prepared from poly(lactic acid) (PLA) and three thermoplastics, polystyrene (PS), polycarbonate (PC) and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA). Rheological and mechanical properties, structure and component interactions were determined by various ...
