A potential tumor suppressor role of PLK2 in glioblastoma
PLK2 was consistently downregulated in GBM tissues. Overexpression of PLK2 in GBM cell lines U87MG and U251 reduced their tumorigenic potential and enhanced cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. Suggesting that PLK2 overexpression could potentially be leveraged as a therapeutic strategy to inhibit tumor progression and enhance apoptosis, providing new ...

Giulio Fermi's contributions to biophysics and molecular biology [PDF]
This paper presents a comprehensive list of the scientific articles of Giulio Fermi (1936-1997), son of the Italian-American physicist Enrico Fermi, published between 1962 and 1997. The initial research activity of Giulio was concerned with virology and biological cybernetics while, from 1975 onward, his work was completely devoted to protein ...

Determining cellular and biochemical function of a novel adhesion molecule in kidneys. [PDF]
Acute kidney injury is an abrupt loss of kidney function that develops in short time with limited effective treatments other than kidney transplantation. We have identified TMIGD1 (Transmembrane immuno- globulin domain 1) as a novel receptor expressed in

This study reports the upregulation of ELMO1 and GPR141 in human Fuchs' endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) corneal endothelium and ultraviolet A‐induced FECD mice model. A genetic association of an intergenic single nucleotide polymorphism rs918980 present between both genes is observed with FECD in the Indian population.

Statistical mechanics of neocortical interactions: large-scale EEG influences on molecular processes [PDF]
Recent calculations further supports the premise that large-scale synchronous firings of neurons may affect molecular processes. The context is scalp electroencephalography (EEG) during short-term memory (STM) tasks. The mechanism considered is $\mathbf{\Pi} = \mathbf{p} + q \mathbf{A}$ (SI units) coupling, where $\mathbf{p}$ is the momenta of free ...

Mapping Hsp104 interactions using cross‐linking mass spectrometry
This study examines how cross‐linking mass spectrometry can be utilized to analyze ATP‐induced conformational changes in Hsp104 and its interactions with substrates. We developed an analytical pipeline to distinguish between intra‐ and inter‐subunit contacts within the hexameric homo‐oligomer and discovered contacts between Hsp104 and a selected ...

Alkane biosynthesis gene expression and its increased production in recombinant cyanobacteria
The transcription and mRNA structures of the alkane biosynthesis genes ado/aar were analysed in the representative cyanobacteria PCC 6803 and SK1‐2‐1, which produce C17H36 and C15H32, respectively. PCC 6803 transconjugants carrying these genes showed a 1.8‐ to 2.3‐fold increase in C17H36 production.

Two for the Price of One: Integrating Large Language Models to Learn Biophysical Interactions [PDF]
Deep learning models have become fundamental tools in drug design. In particular, large language models trained on biochemical sequences learn feature vectors that guide drug discovery through virtual screening. However, such models do not capture the molecular interactions important for binding affinity and specificity.

Apollonius Solutions in Rd [PDF]
Voronoi and related diagrams have technological applications, for example, in motion planning and surface reconstruction, and also find significant use in materials science, molecular biology, and crystallography. Apollonius diagrams arguably provide the most natural division of space for many materials and technology problems, but compared to Voronoi ...
