Un protocole pour la modélisation du fonctionnement des stations d'épuration à boues activées [PDF]
Les stations d’épuration sont des systèmes dynamiques, soumis à d’importantes variations temporelles. La modélisation de leur fonctionnement, qui consiste à représenter mathématiquement l’évolution dans le temps de variables d’intérêt représentant les ...

Does the restoration of shallow marginal peatlands alter the distribution or abundance of bog asphodel (Narthecium ossifragum)? [PDF]
Bog asphodel, Narthecium ossifragum, is a flowering plant, commonly found in many wet acidic habitats, including upland blanket bogs where sheep and cattle grazing has been considered as the most feasible economic activity.

Reconstructing enzyme evolution by protein engineering
Natural enzyme evolution can be retraced by protein engineering methods such as directed evolution, rational design, and ancestral sequence reconstruction. These approaches reveal how enzymes emerged from ligand‐binding scaffolds, developed varying substrate preferences, formed oligomeric complexes, adapted to environmental changes, and evolved novel ...

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...
