Impact of Power Loss in the Substrate on the Efficiency of RF GaN-on-Si HEMTs
In RF GaN-on-Si technology, the semiconducting Si substrate can couple to the overlying circuitry and cause substrate loss, which is known to degrade the performance of passive structures. An impact on active devices also exists.

The physical dimensions and shape of bacterial cells define the surface area available to acquire nutrients and the volume available for synthesizing proteins and DNA. Here, we use computational systems biology to decode the importance of cell geometry as a major determinant of prokaryotic phenotype, including growth rate and metabolic efficiency. This

Embryonic stem cells become mechanoresponsive upon exit from ground state of pluripotency [PDF]
Stem cell fate decisions are driven by a broad array of signals, both chemical and mechanical. Although much progress has been made in our understanding of the impact of chemical signals on cell fate choice, much less is known about the role and ...

Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.

Protein aggregates threaten proteostasis and cell health. In human cells, Hsp70–J‐domain protein‐based disaggregases remove aggregates, but how they assemble remains unclear. Our biochemical findings show that DNAJA2‐ and DNAJB1‐containing disaggregase scaffolds enhance luciferase aggregate targeting, and that Hsp70 recruitment by both J‐domain ...

The substrate specificity of carnitine acetyltransferase [PDF]
1. A study of the acyl group specificity of the carnitine acetyltransferase reaction [acyl-(-)carnitine+CoASH right harpoon over left harpoon (-)-carnitine+acyl-CoA] has been made with the enzyme from pigeon breast muscle. Acyl groups containing up to 10 carbon atoms are transferred and detailed kinetic investigations with a range of acyl-CoA and ...

Glioma cells mainly express the endothelin receptor EDNRB, while EDNRA is restricted to a perivascular tumor subpopulation. Endothelin signaling reduces glioma cell proliferation while promoting migration and a proneural‐to‐mesenchymal transition associated with poor prognosis. This pathway activates Ca2+, K+, ERK, and STAT3 signalings and is regulated

Substrate Specificity of Soybean Lipoxidase
Abstract Purified soybean lipoxidase was used to test the substrate specificity of all cis,cis-methylene-interrupted isomers of linoleic acid. The natural 9,12-isomer was found to be the best substrate, and the 13,16-isomer 50% as effective. The presence of calcium ions broadened the pattern of specificity.
