Development of high‐filler‐content silicone rubber composites containing up to 80 wt% bismuth oxide or copper, demonstrating significant I‐131 attenuation with retained flexibility and durability. ABSTRACT The development of flexible, non‐lead radiation‐shielding materials remains a critical challenge, particularly for I‐131 protection, where no ...

Investigating the mechanism of aluminum resistance conferred by aluminum resistance protein 1
Abstract Aluminum does not play any role in essential biological processes, but in acidic conditions it becomes biologically reactive and highly toxic even at low concentrations. Eukaryotes have developed numerous strategies for detoxification, one of which relies on membrane proteins.

Unilateral breast uptake of Tc-99m pertechnetate in a patient with cold nodule of the thyroid
Common causes of unilateral breast uptake of Tc-99m pertechnetate are predominant breast-feeding on one side, mastitis, and breast cancer. Uptake of Tc-99m pertechnetate in the epithelial cells of the breast, like that of iodide, depends on the ...

Structural insights into the elevator-like mechanism of the sodium/citrate symporter CitS
The sodium-dependent citrate transporter of Klebsiella pneumoniae (KpCitS) belongs to the 2-hydroxycarboxylate transporter (2-HCT) family and allows the cell to use citrate as sole carbon and energy source in anaerobic conditions. Here we present crystal

Mycelial dynamics in arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi
Summary Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), similar to other filamentous fungi, develop extensive hyphal networks collectively known as mycelia. AMF mycelia are complemented by a variety of specialized structures such as spores, vesicles, and auxiliary cells, which together form integrated and functionally diverse AMF networks.

Light-induced transcriptional responses associated with proteorhodopsin-enhanced growth in a marine flavobacterium [PDF]
Proteorhodopsin (PR) is a photoprotein that functions as a light-driven proton pump in diverse marine Bacteria and Archaea. Recent studies have suggested that PR may enhance both growth rate and yield in some flavobacteria when grown under nutrient ...

Summary Photorespiration is a major source of photosynthetic inefficiency in C3 crops. In photorespiration, the oxygenation rather than carboxylation of RuBP by Rubisco triggers an energy‐expensive pathway to recycle inhibitory byproducts and recapture lost carbon, ultimately reducing yields.
