Microbially driven methane and sulfur cycling processes and coupling mechanisms in mangrove sediments

Environmental Microbiome
Background Methane (CH4) as a powerful greenhouse gas is the second largest contributor to global climate warming. Mangrove sediments are an important natural source of biogenic CH4 with rich organic carbon (C) and diverse sulfur (S) compounds, ideally ...

BMI‐1 modulation and trafficking during M phase in diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The schematic illustrates BMI‐1 phosphorylation during M phase, which triggers its translocation from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. In cycling cells, BMI‐1 functions within the PRC1 complex to mediate H2A K119 monoubiquitination. Following PTC596‐induced M phase arrest, phosphorylated BMI‐1 dissociates from PRC1 and is exported to the cytoplasm via its

Recycling of NiTi Shape Memory Alloys: Fundamental and Technological Aspects of a Vacuum Induction Melting Processing Route

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The present study investigates recycling of NiTi shape memory alloys via vacuum induction melting. An ingot was synthesized from elemental Ni and Ti and subjected to three subsequent remelting cycles. Remelting increases process durations and impurity levels and adversely affects microstructures and functional properties.

Discovery of an ene-reductase for initiating flavone and flavonol catabolism in gut bacteria

Nature Communications, 2021
Flavonoids are abundant polyphenols in plants but it is not well understood how their metabolism is initiated by microbes in the human gut. Here, the authors identify and characterise an ene-reductase from the gut bacterium, Flavonifractor plautii ATCC ...

Carbon storage and DNA absorption in allophanic soils and paleosols [PDF]

, 2014
Andisols and andic paleosols dominated by the nanocrystalline mineral allophane sequester large amounts of carbon (C), attributable mainly to its chemical bonding with charged hydroxyl groups on the surface of allophane together with its physical ...

Biodegradable and Recyclable Luminescent Mixed‐Matrix‐Membranes, Hydrogels, and Cryogels based on Nanoscale Metal‐Organic Frameworks and Biopolymers

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The study presents biodegradable and recyclable mixed‐matrix membranes (MMMs), hydrogels, and cryogels using luminescent nanoscale metal‐organic frameworks (nMOFs) and biopolymers. These bio‐nMOF‐MMMs combine europium‐based nMOFs as probes for the status of the materials with the biopolymers agar and gelatine and present alternatives to conventional ...
