Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Method for quantification of microplastic release from plastic-based materials during weathering

open access: yesMicroplastics and Nanoplastics
Most microplastics (MPs) are generated as a result of photodegradation during the life of plastic products and after the end-of-life as mismanaged waste.

The Use of Demolition Wood in Papermaking [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
The reason for this study came from three factors affecting the paper industry as well as society as a whole. These factors are decreasing landfill space, increasing tipping fees, and increasing demands for alternative fiber sources. In the United States,

Wood-based Superblack

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Abstract The promise of superblack materials to revolutionize energy harvesting and optoelectronic technologies has been constrained by their cost and mechanical fragility. Here we report on a simple strategy, guided by computational methods, to develop robust superblack materials following metal-free wood delignification and carbonization ...

Tumor mutational burden as a determinant of metastatic dissemination patterns

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study performed a comprehensive analysis of genomic data to elucidate whether metastasis in certain organs share genetic characteristics regardless of cancer type. No robust mutational patterns were identified across different metastatic locations and cancer types.

Effects of Wood Drying Temperatures on the Reduction in Mechanical Properties of Japanese Cedar (Cryptomeria japonica D. Don) Perpendicular to Grain

open access: yesBuildings
Wood drying is often accompanied by changes in mechanical properties due to external thermal energy. This study examined the influences of drying temperature on the mechanical properties of Japanese cedar based on the partial compression properties and ...
