Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

On equivalence of absolute double weighted mean methods

open access: yesQuaestiones Mathematicae, 2020
Bor [1], Bor and Thorpe [2] and the author [8] established the set of necessary and sufficient condition for the equivalence of absolute weighted mean summability methods of innite series. In the present paper we extend their result to doubly innite series by two dimensional weighted mean, which also includes the result of Rhoades [7].

Valosin‐containing protein counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its ATPase activity in vitro

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

A modified stochastic model for LS+AR hybrid method and its application in polar motion short-term prediction

open access: yesGeodesy and Geodynamics
Short-term (up to 30 days) predictions of Earth Rotation Parameters (ERPs) such as Polar Motion (PM: PMX and PMY) play an essential role in real-time applications related to high-precision reference frame conversion.

Bluetooth positioning based on weighted K-nearest neighbors and adaptive bandwidth mean shift

open access: yesInternational Journal of Distributed Sensor Networks, 2017
Bluetooth positioning is an important and challenging topic in indoor positioning. Although a lot of algorithms have been proposed for this problem, it is still not solved perfectly because of the instable signal strengths of Bluetooth.

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Time Difference of Arrival (TDoA) Localization Combining Weighted Least Squares and Firefly Algorithm

open access: yesSensors, 2019
Time difference of arrival (TDoA) based on a group of sensor nodes with known locations has been widely used to locate targets. Two-step weighted least squares (TSWLS), constrained weighted least squares (CWLS), and Newton−Raphson (NR) iteration ...

Three phosphatase families form a community: The phosphohydrolases that act upon inositol pyrophosphates

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.
