Structural study of ribosome : 1) structural basis of EF-G in translocation. 2) molecular mechanism of ribosome-dependent toxin YoeB in mRNA cleavage by Chen, Yun

“…The positioning of the catalytic His87 into the active site is coupled to the hydrophobic-gate opening and involves the ribosomal 23S rRNA sarcin-ricin loop as well as domain III of EF-G. These findings provide a structural basis for the GTPase activation of EF-G, based on which, a substrate-promoted mechanism is proposed. …”

The effects of exercise, heat-induced hypo-hydration and rehydration on blood–brain-barrier permeability, corticospinal and peripheral excitability by Uddin, N, Scott, J, Nixon, J, Patterson, SD, Kidgell, D, Pearce, AJ, Waldron, M, Tallent, J

“…Serum UCH-L1 increased across time for all conditions (p &lt; 0.001) but was not significantly different between conditions. Conclusion: Our findings demonstrate an increase in corticospinal inhibition after exercise with fluid ingestion, but a decrease in corticospinal excitability after heat-induced hypo-hydration. …”

Characterization of liposome-encapsulated tylosin, in vitro Cytotoxicity and its antibacterial activitiy against Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis isolated from goats by Saddiqi, Mohammad Ehsan

“…The release behaviour of tylosin from the conventional liposomes is based on initial fast release followed by sustained and slow-released as compared to free tylosin. Cytotoxicity findings revealed higher cell viability (above 70%) for liposomal tylosin and below 70% for free tylosin at a high concentration of 1024 μg/mL. …”

Cytotoxicity assessment of α helix Antarctic yeast oriented antifreeze peptide (Afp1m) on M. dunni (Clone III8C) cells by Khan, Muhammad Shuaib, Abdul Rahman, Mohd Basyaruddin, Abu Bakar, Mohd Zuki, Noordin, Mohammed Mustapha, Ullah, Shakeeb, Abdul Abubakar, Adamu, Rehman, Saifur, Saddiqua, Aisha, Mohammad Yusof, Loqman

“…Development was observed, albeit more slowly than in the positive control and treated with lesser concentrations. The findings of this work indicate that Afp1m exhibits cryoprotective properties without inducing toxicity when used for the cryopreservation of M. dunni (Clone III8C) cells.…”

Three Provocations for Civic Crowdfunding by Davies, Rodrigo

“…It offers three provocations to scholars and practitioners considering the practice, questioning the extent to which civic crowdfunding is participatory, the extent to which it addresses or contributes to social inequality, and the extent to which it augments or weakens the role of public institutions. In doing so, it finds that civic crowdfunding is capable of vastly divergent outcomes, and argues that the extent to which civic crowdfunding produces outcomes that are beneficial, rather than harmful to the public sphere, will be determined by the extent to which the full range of stakeholders in civic life participate in the practice. …”

The Contours of the Cloud: Dissecting the Real Estate Investment Decisions of Data Center Operators by Fawcett, Robert Logan

“…The hedonic model examines the impact of specific site attributes, such as proximity to power infrastructure and fiber, on the scale of data center facilities in megawatts. The findings suggest that colocation data centers prioritize connectivity, electrical infrastructure, and urban proximity, while the location of hyperscale facilities is more variable and less predictable. …”
