Conformational changes involved in signal transduction in avian cryptochromes by Gehrckens, AS

“…</p> <p>Using a range of complementary techniques, this thesis aims to elucidate protein conformational changes as the first step in signal transduction in several cryptochrome species finding similar changes in the same loop regions across multiple proteins, tackled the question whether a functional dimer might exist in the context of magnetoreception and found two important residues involved in dimerisation, and lastly used the finding that this dimerisation process is light-induced to start investigating the interaction surfaces in these dimeric structures.…”

Immunity debt for seasonal influenza after the COVID-19 pandemic and as a result of non-pharmaceutical interventions: an ecological analysis and cohort study by Chen, L, Guo, Y, López-Güell, K, Ma, J, Dong, Y, Xie, J, Prieto Alhambra, D

“…In addition, a positive association between the Stringency Index and post-relaxation influenza surge was observed globally (R² = 0.14-0.17) and replicated regionally. Our findings support the population immunity debt hypothesis for influenza and call for proactive preparations against its consequences in future pandemics.…”
