Microfluidic pump driven by anisotropic phoresis [PDF]
Phys. Rev. Applied 11, 054004 (2019), 2018 Fluid flow along microchannels can be induced by keeping opposite walls at different temperatures, and placing elongated tilted pillars inside the channel. The driving force for this fluid motion arises from the anisotropic thermophoretic effect of the elongated pillars that generates a force parallel to the walls, and perpendicular to the temperature ...

Systematic analysis of the Hippo pathway organization and oncogenic alteration in evolution. [PDF]
, 2020 The Hippo pathway is a central regulator of organ size and a key tumor suppressor via coordinating cell proliferation and death. Initially discovered in Drosophila, the Hippo pathway has been implicated as an evolutionarily conserved pathway in mammals ...

Structural and functional insights into thermally stable cytochrome c′ from a thermophile
Protein Science, 2017 Thermophilic Hydrogenophilus thermoluteolus cytochrome c′ (PHCP) exhibits higher thermal stability than a mesophilic counterpart, Allochromatium vinosum cytochrome c′ (AVCP), which has a homo‐dimeric structure and ligand‐binding ability.

PCL enzymatic hydrolysis: a mechanistic study [PDF]
ACS Omega, 2019, 2019 Accumulation of plastic waste is a major environmental problem. Enzymes, particularly esterases, play an important role in the biodegradation of polyesters. These enzymes are usually only active on aliphatic polyesters, but a few have showed catalytic activity for semi-aromatic polyesters.

Different measures for characterizing the motion of molecules along a temperature gradient [PDF]
Phys. Rev. E 99, 062108 (2019), 2019 We study the motion of a Brownian particle in a medium with inhomogeneous temperature. In the overdamped regime of low Reynolds numbers, the probability distribution function (PDF) of the particle is obtained from the van Kampen diffusion equation [J. Phys. Chem. Solids {\bf 49}, 673 (1988)].

Bacteriophages of Thermophilic ‘Bacillus Group’ Bacteria—A Review
Microorganisms, 2021 Bacteriophages of thermophiles are of increasing interest owing to their important roles in many biogeochemical, ecological processes and in biotechnology applications, including emerging bionanotechnology. However, due to lack of in-depth investigation,

Step size of the rotary proton motor in single FoF1-ATP synthase from a thermoalkaliphilic bacterium by DCO-ALEX FRET [PDF]
, 2012 Thermophilic enzymes can operate at higher temperatures but show reduced activities at room temperature. They are in general more stable during preparation and, accordingly, are considered to be more rigid in structure. Crystallization is often easier compared to proteins from bacteria growing at ambient temperatures, especially for membrane proteins ...
