Glycosylation of Epigallocatechin Gallate by Engineered Glycoside Hydrolases from <i>Talaromyces amestolkiae</i>: Potential Antiproliferative and Neuroprotective Effect of These Molecules

Glycoside hydrolases (GHs) are enzymes that hydrolyze glycosidic bonds, but some of them can also catalyze the synthesis of glycosides by transglycosylation. However, the yields of this reaction are generally low since the glycosides formed...

The triad interaction of ULK1, ATG13, and FIP200 is required for ULK complex formation and autophagy

In mammals, autophagosome formation, a central event in autophagy, is initiated by the ULK complex comprising ULK1/2, FIP200, ATG13, and ATG101. However, the structural basis and mechanism underlying the ULK complex assembly have yet to be ...

Transgenerational inheritance of ethanol preference is caused by maternal NPF repression

Rapid or even anticipatory adaptation to environmental conditions can provide a decisive fitness advantage to an organism. The memory of recurring conditions could also benefit future generations; however, neuronally-encoded behavior isn’t ...

Molecular Biology of the Cell

As the amount of information in biology expands dramatically, it becomes increasingly important for textbooks to distill the vast amount of scientific knowledge into concise principles and enduring concepts.As with previous editions, Molecu...

Evaluating the Antimicrobial Activity of Curcumin-loaded Lipid Nanocarriers When Applying Photodynamic and Sonodynamic Therapy for the Treatment of Skin Infections.

Metal-Ligand Coordination Nanomaterials Tailored to the Cancer-Immunity Cycle.

Innovative green niosomal piperlongumine as a novel topical treatment for dermatophytosis in guinea pigs model

Abstract Dermatophytosis is a common superficial fungal infection that affects many people worldwide. Although various species of dermatophytes respond to common antifungal drugs, the recently identified Trichophyton indotineae isolates hav...

Graphene Quantum Dots Modified with Metformin/Co(II) as Efficient Oxidation Catalyst

While one of the valuable approaches to obtaining a heterogeneous catalyst is supporting them on a high surface area supports, the strategy mainly suffers from the low number of chelating agents on most of the supports to grip the metal cat...

Applications of nanotechnology for immunology

Encyclopedia of nanotechnology

The Encyclopedia of Nanotechnology provides a comprehensive and multi-disciplinary reference to the many fields relevant to the general field of nanotechnology. It aims to be a comprehensive and genuinely international reference work and wi...

Nanotechnology

Human dreams and imagination often give rise to new science and technology. Nanotechnology, a 21st-century frontier, was born out of such dreams. Nanotechnology is defined as the understanding and control of matter at dimensions between 1 a...

Designing a Model for Improving Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises (SMEs)

Business improvement has always been one of the basic issues in the business world. Due to the growing changes in technology, pervasive competition and the changing needs of customers, companies must pay attention to the permanence and impr...

Effect of heat treatment on the microstructure and corrosion resistance of laser powder bed fusion ODS-316L

As a candidate cladding material for fourth-generation nuclear energy systems, the microstructure and properties of oxide dispersion strengthened 316L (ODS-316L) steel are significantly affected by heat treatment (HT) processes. This paper ...

Oscilaciones de Potencia, Tensión y Corriente en Unidades de Generación Distribuida; Power, Voltage and Current Oscillations in Distributed Generation Units

En las plantas de generación distribuidas accionadas por motores reciprocantes es necesario conocer las fluctuaciones de tensión, corriente y potencia para evaluar la calidad de la energía que entregan estos grupos electrógenos y como crite...

Simulation Study on Mechanical Characteristics of Rock Bolt in Rock Mass with Bedding Separation Based on the Nonlinear Bond Slip Relationship

The mechanical equation on the mechanical characteristics of rock bolt in rock mass with bedding separation is established, based on the bond slip relationship of anchoring interface by the load transfer method. The validity of the numerica...

Design Considerations for a Distributed Low-Cost Air Quality Sensing System for Urban Environments in Low-Resource Settings

With rapid urbanization, hazardous environmental exposures such as air, noise, plastic, soil and water pollution have emerged as a major threat to urban health. Recent studies show that 9 out of 10 people worldwide breathe contaminated air ...

Formal Techniques for Distributed Systems

Replication Techniques in Distributed Systems

Replication Techniques in Distributed Systems organizes and surveys the spectrum of replication protocols and systems that achieve high availability by replicating entities in failure-prone distribute...

A Method for Determination of Moment Contribution Ratio under Foundation Rotation in Shear Wall-Frame Systems

In shear wall-frame systems, the foundation rotation that may occur under the shear walls changes the displacements and interstory drift ratios and changes the internal force distribution. This study investigates the effect of foundation ro...

A systems-level energetic framework for conscious processing: energetic organization as a constraint on large-scale neural integration

Conscious processing is associated with coordinated interactions among distributed neural systems, yet the biological constraints that enable and sustain large-scale neural integration remain incompletely understood. Contemporary theories e...
