Molecular architecture of the Chikungunya virus replication complex by Tan, Yaw Bia, Chmielewski, David, Law, Michelle Cheok Yien, Zhang, Kuo, He, Yu, Chen, Muyuan, Jin, Jing, Luo, Dahai

“…Within the core RNA replicase, the viral polymerase nsP4, which is in complex with nsP2 helicase-protease, sits in the central pore of the membrane-anchored nsP1 RNA-capping ring. The addition of a large cytoplasmic ring next to the C terminus of nsP1 forms the holo-RNA-RC as observed at the neck of spherules formed in virus-infected cells. …”

Investigation of soil-structure interaction for deep excavations by Hensman, P

“…The deep excavation was supported by a complex ’combi-wall’ cofferdam, a reinforced concrete (RC) capping beam, and two levels of internal bracing, and its performance was assessed through measured wall deflections, bracing member loads, and site and bunker water levels. …”

In vitro anti-cancer and antimicrobial effects of manganese oxide nanoparticles synthesized using Glycyrrhiza uralensis leaves extract on breast cancer cell lines by Althobiti, Maryam Musleh, Alzahrani, Badr, Elderdery, Abozer Y., Alzerwi, Nasser A. N., Rayzah, Musaed, Elkhalifa,, Ahmed M. E., Idrees, Bandar, Bakhsh, Ebtisam, Alabdulsalam, Abdulrahim A., Mohamedain, A., Kumar, Suresh S., Mok, Pooi Ling

“…The leaf extract of GU contains bioactive molecules that act as a reducing or capping agent to form Mn2O3 NPs. Various analytical techniques were used to characterize the physiochemical properties of PF-127-coated Mn2O3 NPs, including spectroscopy (ultralight-Vis, Fourier transform infrared, photoluminescence), electron microscopy (field emission scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy), X-ray diffraction (XRD), electron diffracted X-ray spectroscopy (EDAX), and dynamic light scattering. …”
