A light‐triggered Time‐Resolved X‐ray Solution Scattering (TR‐XSS) workflow with application to protein conformational dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Time‐resolved X‐ray solution scattering captures how proteins change shape in real time under near‐native conditions. This article presents a practical workflow for light‐triggered TR‐XSS experiments, from data collection to structural refinement. Using a calcium‐transporting membrane protein as an example, the approach can be broadly applied to study ...

Optimizing photoactivation of PA‐mCherry for optical pooled CRISPR screens

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Photoactivatable PA‐mCherry finds widespread use to optically tag individual cells. However, confocal 405 nm UV laser‐scanning (normal scan) is much less efficient than widefield UV illumination, limiting the use of PA‐mCherry on confocal instruments. We remedy this limitation by reporting that rapid and repeated confocal scanning with a low‐intensity,

Effect of terahertz irradiation on DNA damage repair in living cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We investigated the effect of terahertz (THz) wave irradiation on DNA double‐strand break (DSB) repair in living cells. We found that THz irradiation enhanced DSB repair at specific frequencies, whereas heat treatment inhibited it, indicating that this effect is nonthermal and frequency‐specific.

Photosystems activities and polypeptide composition of Cyamopsis tetragonoloba and Vigna mungo thylakoids as affected by exclusion of solar UV radiation

open access: yesBiologia Plantarum, 2010
The impacts of solar UV (280-400 nm) radiation on photosynthetic activities and polypeptide composition of thylakoids of cluster bean (Cyamopsis tetragonoloba L, UV-B sensitive) and black gram (Vigna mungo L., UV-B resistant) plants were compared.

Optimizing photoexcitation conditions for time‐resolved X‐ray solution scattering experiments

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Time‐resolved X‐ray solution scattering (TR‐XSS) is a powerful technique to visualize how proteins change their structure in real time after light activation. Selecting the right laser photoexcitation conditions—fluence, excitation geometry, and sample refresh rate—is critical to maximize the experimental signal while avoiding unwanted side effects ...

Efeitos da radiação ultravioleta-B sobre a morfologia foliar de Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. (Brassicaceae) Effects of ultraviolet-B radiation on leaf morphology of Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. (Brassicaceae)

open access: yesActa Botânica Brasílica, 2006
A redução da camada de ozônio resulta no aumento da radiação ultravioleta que atinge a superfície terrestre, especialmente a radiação ultravioletaB (UV-B).

UV-B Radiation Largely Promoted the Transformation of Primary Metabolites to Phenols in Astragalus mongholicus Seedlings

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2020
: Ultraviolet-B (UV-B) radiation (280−320 nm) may induce photobiological stress in plants, activate the plant defense system, and induce changes of metabolites.

Identification and characterisation of calcitonin receptor isoforms expressed in glioblastoma derived glioma stem and U‐87 MG cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Glioblastoma cells express calcitonin receptor variants (CT receptor isoforms) that may help them survive stress. Using qPCR, transcript‐specific long‐read nanopore sequencing, immunofluorescence co‐localisation and comparative sequence analysis, this study identifies a novel alternatively spliced CALCR transcript that encodes the CTb receptor isoform ...

Integrated analysis of transcriptome and proteome provides novel insights into the response mechanisms of maca (Lepidium meyenii Walp.) to UV-B radiation

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety
UV-B radiation is a significant environmental factor that affects a wide range of biological processes in plants. Maca (Lepidium meyenii Walp.), a critical herbaceous plant native to high altitudes, shows strong adaptation to environmental stimuli ...

The Impact of Ultraviolet-B Radiation on the Sugar Contents and Protective Enzymes in Acyrthosiphon pisum

open access: yesInsects, 2021
Natural and anthropogenic changes have been altering many environmental factors. These include the amount of solar radiation reaching the Earth’s surface. However, the effects of solar radiation on insect physiology have received little attention.
