Three-field FEM for analysis of thin elastic shells

open access: yesMagazine of Civil Engineering
To obtain a finite element algorithm in the three-field formulation, a conditional functional was used, based on the equality of the actual work of the internal force factors (internal forces and moments) at the strains and curvatures of the middle ...

Isolation and characterization of two crude oil-degrading fungi strains from Rumaila oil field, Iraq

open access: yesBiotechnology Reports, 2018
Among four crude oil-degrading fungi strains that were isolated from a petroleum-polluted area in the Rumaila oil field, two fungi strains showed high activity in aliphatic hydrocarbon degradation.

PinR mediates the generation of reversible population diversity in Streptococcus zooepidemicus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Opportunistic pathogens must adapt to and survive in a wide range of complex ecosystems. Streptococcus zooepidemicus is an opportunistic pathogen of horses and many other animals, including humans.

Substrate specificity of Burkholderia pseudomallei multidrug transporters is influenced by the hydrophilic patch in the substrate‐binding pocket

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
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 ...

Antigen surface display in two novel whole genome sequenced food grade strains, Lactiplantibacillus pentosus KW1 and KW2

open access: yesMicrobial Cell Factories
Background Utilization of commensal bacteria for delivery of medicinal proteins, such as vaccine antigens, is an emerging strategy. Here, we describe two novel food-grade strains of lactic acid bacteria, Lactiplantibacillus pentosus KW1 and KW2, as well ...

Ab initio study of topological surface states of strained HgTe

open access: yes, 2014
The topological surface states of mercury telluride (HgTe) are studied by ab initio calculations assuming different strains and surface terminations. For the Te-terminated surface, a single Dirac cone exists at the $\Gamma$ point.

Function‐driven design of a surrogate interleukin‐2 receptor ligand

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Interleukin (IL)‐2 signaling can be achieved and precisely fine‐tuned through the affinity, distance, and orientation of the heterodimeric receptors with their ligands. We designed a biased IL‐2 surrogate ligand that selectively promotes effector T and natural killer cell activation and differentiation. Interleukin (IL) receptors play a pivotal role in

Adaptations of Escherichia coli strains to oxidative stress are reflected in properties of their structural proteomes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
BACKGROUND:The reconstruction of metabolic networks and the three-dimensional coverage of protein structures have reached the genome-scale in the widely studied Escherichia coli K-12 MG1655 strain.
