pH‐mediated activation of the lysosomal arginine sensor SLC38A9

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cells monitor nutrient levels via the lysosomal transporter SLC38A9 to activate the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). This study reveals that SLC38A9 function is regulated by pH. We identified histidine 544 as a critical pH sensor that undergoes conformational changes to control amino acid efflux from lysosomes; therefore, it ...

Temperature characterisation of an optically-interrogated Rogowski coil

open access: yes, 2014
An investigation into the performance of an optically-interrogated Rogowski coil over temperatures up to 80 °C is presented. Preliminary thermal tests reveal that the sensor response is temperature-dependent and the measurement errors are increased at ...

Flexible temperature sensors: A review

open access: yesSensors and Actuators A: Physical, 2020
Abstract The research and development of wearable sensors have gained a growing interest due to the advantage of being flexible, thin, and light, which makes them highly desirable for robotic and healthcare applications. One of the essential devices in wearable technology is flexible temperature sensors for body temperature detection. Recent advances

LED-based temperature sensor [PDF]

open access: yes2017 IEEE Biomedical Circuits and Systems Conference (BioCAS), 2017
This work presents a method to determine the surface temperature of micro-photonic medical implants like LEDs. Our inventive step is to use the photonic emitter (LED) employed in an implantable device as its own sensor and develop readout circuitry to determine the surface temperature of the device.

Septin 9 PB domains coordinate centrosome positioning and microtubule acetylation to control epithelial polarity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Septin 9 polybasic domains couple phosphoinositide‐rich membrane binding to centrosome positioning, Golgi organization, and microtubule acetylation to control epithelial polarity. Their loss disrupts this axis, causing centrosome mispositioning, Golgi fragmentation, reduced microtubule acetylation, and polarity inversion via upregulation of the ...

Temperature and strain discrimination using a single tilted fibre Bragg grating [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
A fibre optic sensor capable of discriminating between temperature and strain, using a single fibre Bragg grating, is presented. The technique exploits the core–cladding mode coupling of a tilted fibre Bragg grating (TFBG). The core and cladding modes

Rab14 regulates the transport of human papillomavirus to the trans‐Golgi network for infectious cell entry

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals that the small GTPase Rab14 is necessary for human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and plays an essential role in the transport of virions to the trans‐Golgi network (TGN). HPV in the early endosome (EE), which harbors GTP‐bound Rab14, is transported to the TGN through the switch of Rab14 from its GTP‐bound to GDP‐bound form.
