Impact of the physical processes in the modeling of HD49933
Context : On its asteroseismic side, the initial run of CoRoT was partly devoted to the solar like star HD49933.The eigenmodes of this F dwarf have been observed with unprecedented accuracy. Aims : We investigate quantitatively the impact of changes in

Additional evidence for the migration of clay upon heating of clay–polypropylene nanocomposites from X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) [PDF]
The explanation for reduction in the peak heat release rate of polymer–clay nanocomposites which is normally accepted is that clay accumulates at the surface, forming a thermal shield which is also a barrier to mass transport.

Peptide‐based ligand antagonists block a Vibrio cholerae adhesin
The structure of a peptide‐binding domain of the Vibrio cholerae adhesin FrhA was solved by X‐ray crystallography, revealing how the inhibitory peptide AGYTD binds tightly at its Ca2+‐coordinated pocket. Structure‐guided design incorporating D‐amino acids enhanced binding affinity, providing a foundation for developing anti‐adhesion therapeutics ...

HyPyRameter: A Python Toolbox to Calculate Spectral Parameters from Hyperspectral Reflectance Data
Hyperspectral image cubes are information rich, typically containing hundreds of wavelengths and millions of spatial pixels. To condense this information into a more interpretable form, it is common to parameterize certain aspects of the spectra that are

Disordered but rhythmic—the role of intrinsic protein disorder in eukaryotic circadian timing
Unstructured domains known as intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) are present in nearly every part of the eukaryotic core circadian oscillator. IDRs enable many diverse inter‐ and intramolecular interactions that support clock function. IDR conformations are highly tunable by post‐translational modifications and environmental conditions, which ...

Surface Composition of Asteroid 269 Justitia: Insights from Spectral Mixture Modeling
Asteroid (269) Justitia is one of the more unusual asteroids in the main belt due to its extremely red spectral slope at visible and near infrared (VNIR) wavelengths.

Multidrug transporters BpeB and BpeF from the Gram‐negative pathogen Burkholderia pseudomallei have a hydrophilic patch in their substrate‐binding pocket. Drug susceptibility tests and growth curve analyses using an Escherichia coli recombinant expression system revealed that the hydrophilic patches of BpeB and BpeF are involved in the substrate ...
