Computational studies of mechanisms underlying the reactions of enzymatic and nonenzymatic systems by Xu, Kai

“…Ferric superoxide was found as a likely reactive species for ferric verdoheme formation in HO in the absence of a reducing equivalent and the reaction mechanism was also studied. …”

Uncovering the function of CREB regulated transcription coactivator 2 (CRTC2) in rodent brain by Lim, Wei Lee

“…CRTC2 translocation corresponds to a robust increase in p-CREB133 levels which likely triggers transcription of CREB target genes associated with glycogen metabolism. …”

The mammalian EMC in membrane protein biogenesis by Volkmar, N

“…Sensitivity to cholesterol loss in EMC6 knockout cells was reproduced by direct deletion or pharmacological inhibition of SQS. mEMC depletion also caused imbalances in the mevalonate pathway, likely leading to increased shunting of the farnesyl pyrophosphate precursor into the isoprenoid pathway, increasing the detection of prenylated proteins. …”

'The burglar's mate'? How London's probation officers persuaded magistrates in Social Enquiry Reports, 1958-72 by Lunan, J

“…The university graduates therefore invoked normative character ideals in SERs because they believed it was likely to be the best way to achieve the desired outcome in court. …”

The responsible innovation of disruptive technologies by Inglesant, P, Webb, H, Ten Holter, C, Patel, M, Jirotka, M

“…Without effective intervention the response to these challenges is likely to be driven by economic interests. However, through RI, alternative futures are also possible. …”

Reconstructing prehistoric lifeways using multi-Isotope analyses of human enamel, dentine, and bone from Legaire Sur, Spain by Griffith, JI, James, HF, Ordoño, J, Fernández-Crespo, T, Gerritzen, CT, Cheung, C, Spros, R, Claeys, P, Goderis, S, Veselka, B, Snoeck, C

“…Oxygen and strontium isotope analysis suggest all individuals come from a similar, likely local, geological region, aside from one biological female who presents a notably different geographical birthplace, weaning, and dietary life history than the rest of the burial population. …”

Fragmenstein: predicting protein–ligand structures of compounds derived from known crystallographic fragment hits using a strict conserved-binding–based methodology by Ferla, MP, Sánchez-García, R, Skyner, RE, Gahbauer, S, Taylor, JC, von Delft, F, Marsden, BD, Deane, CM

“…This method has had a prior real-world application in hit-to-lead screening, yielding a sub-micromolar merger from parent hits in a single round. It is therefore likely to further benefit future drug design campaigns and be integrated in future pipelines. …”

Highly variable freshwater reservoir offsets found along the Upper Lena watershed, Cis-Baikal, southeast Siberia by Schulting, R, Ramsey, CB, Bazaliiskii, VI, Weber, A

“…While the river flows over carbonate bedrock and is moderately alkaline, we suggest that old terrestrial carbon entering the riverine foodweb through bank erosion and other processes is a more likely candidate for the majority of the ¹⁴C offset.…”

Large simple randomized controlled trials—from drugs to medical devices: lessons from recent experience by Buccheri, S, James, S, Mafham, M, Landray, M, Melvin, T, Oldgren, J, Bulbulia, R, Bowman, L, Hoogervorst, LA, de Mheen, PJM, Juni, P, McCulloch, P, Fraser, AG

“…We summarize the essential principles and utility of large simple RCTs, likely applicable to all interventions but especially in order to promote their wider adoption to evaluate new medical devices.…”

Experimental heatwaves facilitate invasion and alter species interactions and composition in a tropical host‐parasitoid community by Chen, J, Lewis, O

“…The interactive effects of climate change and climate change-facilitated invasion have rarely been studied in multi-trophic communities, and are likely to differ depending on the nature of the climatic driver (i.e., climate extremes or constant warming). …”

Rediscovering Homo sapiens in international politics: evolution and rationality’s missing link by Johnson, D

“…An evolutionary perspective suggests: (1) rational choice is not always the most effective or efficient solution to decision-making problems; (2) cognitive biases are not mistakes, but adaptive “strategic instincts,” which evolved because they helped us make good decisions, not bad ones; (3) these “non-rational” dispositions follow a systematic pattern, allowing predictions about how people are likely to react under given conditions; (4) a theory for the origins of preferences; (5) an explanation for why humans can sometimes seem rational and sometimes non-rational (because adaptive behavior depends on context); and finally (6) error management theory suggests that cognitive biases evolved precisely because of uncertainty, as a way of minimizing costs over time. …”
