Relative availability of natural prey versus livestock predicts landscape suitability for cheetahs Acinonyx jubatus in Botswana [PDF]
Prey availability and human-carnivore conflict are strong determinants that govern the spatial distribution and abundance of large carnivore species and determine the suitability of areas for their conservation.

Piecewise Affine Magnetic Modeling of Permanent-Magnet Synchronous Machines for Virtual-Flux Control
Accurate flux linkage magnetic models are essential for virtual-flux controllers in PMSMs. Flux linkage exhibits saturation and cross-saturation at high currents, introducing nonlinearities into the machine model.

Effect of deuterium on the circadian period and metabolism in wild-type and tau mutant Syrian hamsters [PDF]
Homozygous tau mutant Syrian hamsters (tau-/-) have a free-running circadian period (τ) around 20 h and a proportionally higher metabolic rate compared with wild-type hamsters (tau+/+) with a period of circa 24 h.

Amyloid and tau in the brain in sporadic Alzheimer’s disease: defining the chicken and the egg [PDF]
In the October 2013 issue of Acta Neuropathologica there were three very interesting articles on: Amyloid or tau: the chicken or the egg? In the first article, David Mann and John Hardy argued that the deposition of aggregated amyloid β (Aβ) protein in ...

Creatine transporter deficiency: Novel mutations and functional studies
X-linked cerebral creatine deficiency (MIM 300036) is caused by deficiency of the creatine transporter encoded by the SLC6A8 gene. Here we report three patients with this condition from Israel.

Change in tau phosphorylation associated with neurodegeneration in the ME7 model of prion disease
Hyperphosphorylation of the microtubule-associated protein tau is a significant determinant in AD (Alzheimer's disease), where it is associated with disrupted axonal transport and probably causes synaptic dysfunction.

Tauopathies are age-related neurodegenerative diseases that are characterized by the presence of aggregates of abnormally phosphorylated tau. As tau was originally discovered as a microtubule-associated protein, it has been hypothesized that neurodegeneration results from a loss of the ability of tau to associate with microtubules.

The ubiquitin‐proteasome system and autophagy as guardians of the cellular proteome
This Perspective covers the three principles governing the crosstalk between the ubiquitin‐proteasome system and autophagy in cellular proteostasis: (1) a shared ubiquitin code routing substrates via shuttle factors or autophagy receptors; (2) spatial compartmentalization into phase‐separated degradation hubs and organelle‐specific modules (exemplified
