Analysis of motion stability of a deployed space tether system with an atmospheric probe
Вестник Самарского университета: Аэрокосмическая техника, технологии и машиностроение, 2016 The stability of motion of a space tether system with an atmospheric probe is investigated in the paper. The equilibrium position stability of a space tether system near the local vertical (static stability) and deployment stability (dynamic stability ...

Micromachines, 2023 This article presents a new design of supporting tethers through the concept of force distribution. The transmitted force applied on tethers will be distributed on the new tether design area, resulting in low acoustic energy transferred to anchor ...

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021 The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) forms direct membrane contact sites with the plasma membrane (PM) in eukaryotic cells. These ER-PM contact sites play essential roles in lipid homeostasis, ion dynamics, and cell signaling, which are carried out by protein ...

Are All Multisubunit Tethering Complexes Bona Fide Tethers? [PDF]
Traffic, 2014 Since the late 1990s, a number of multisubunit tethering complexes (MTCs) have been described that function in membrane trafficking events: TRAPP I, TRAPP II, TRAPP III, COG, HOPS, CORVET, Dsl1, GARP and exocyst. On the basis of structural and sequence similarities, they have been categorized as complexes associated with tethering containing helical ...

Coupled motion analysis of tether with time-varying length and rigid bodies
Nihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2017 In this paper, we discuss the motion of a tethered system during winding a tether in microgravity. When the tether is being wound, it comes into strong contact with the feeding section of the system.

Tethered Particle Motion as a Diagnostic of DNA Tether Length [PDF]
The Journal of Physical Chemistry B, 2006 The tethered particle motion (TPM) technique involves an analysis of the Brownian motion of a bead tethered to a slide by a single DNA molecule. We describe an improved experimental protocol with which to form the tethers, an algorithm for analyzing bead motion visualized using differential interference contrast microscopy, and a physical model with ...

Stability of DNA-Tethered Lipid Membranes with Mobile Tethers [PDF]
Langmuir, 2011 We recently introduced two approaches for tethering planar lipid bilayers as membrane patches to either a supported lipid bilayer or DNA-functionalized surface using DNA hybridization (Chung, M.; Lowe, R. D.; Chan, Y-H. M.; Ganesan, P. V.; Boxer, S. G. J. Struct. Biol.2009, 168, 190-9).

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...
