Influence of Cosolvents on the Pressure Stability of Human Serum Albumin
Human serum albumin is able to bind various hydrophobic substances and drugs. To investigate this interaction, the protein structure is analyzed using small‐angle X‐ray scattering under high hydrostatic pressure. The resulting radius of gyration (see picture) indicates that hydrophobic substances influence the pressure stability of HSA differently ...

Hyperspectral Raman imaging to understand patterns in dried biofluids in Alzheimer's disease
Raman spectroscopy is commonly used to identify biomarkers in biological fluids, often focusing on the outer ring of dried droplets due to molecular accumulation from the coffee ring effect. However, this approach may overlook important spectral information, so hyperspectral Raman mapping is used to analyze the entire droplet and identify optimal ...

ABSTRACT The condition of ancient marine ecosystems provides context for contemporary biodiversity changes in human‐impacted oceans. Sequencing sedimentary ancient DNA (sedaDNA) is an emerging method for generating high‐resolution biodiversity time‐series data, offering insights into past ecosystems.

Designing Epigenetic Clocks for Wildlife Research
ABSTRACT The applications of epigenetic clocks – statistical models that predict an individual's age based on DNA methylation patterns – are expanding in wildlife conservation and management. This growing interest highlights the need for field‐specific design best practices.

Independent Avian Epigenetic Clocks for Ageing and Development
ABSTRACT Information on individual age is a fundamental aspect in many ecological and evolutionary studies. However, accurate and non‐lethal methods that can be applied to estimate the age of wild animals are often absent. Furthermore, since the process of ageing is accompanied by a physical decline and the deterioration of biological functions, the ...

ERNEST COST action overview on the (patho)physiology of GPCRs and orphan GPCRs in the nervous system
G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) are a large family of cell surface receptors that play a critical role in nervous system function by transmitting signals between cells and their environment. They are involved in many, if not all, nervous system processes, and their dysfunction has been linked to various neurological disorders representing important

Stress‐inducible phosphoprotein 1 (Sti1/Stip1/Hop) sequesters misfolded proteins during stress
Stress‐inducible phosphoprotein 1 (Sti1/Stip1/Hop) is a major co‐chaperone to both Hsp90 and Hsp70. We find that misbalanced expression of Sti1 in yeast and mammalian cells causes severe growth defects. Deletion of STI1 causes an accumulation of soluble misfolded ubiquitinated proteins and a strong activation of the heat shock response.
