Three distinct 3-methylcytidine (m3C) methyltransferases modify tRNA and mRNA in mice and humans by Xu, Luang, Liu, Xinyu, Sheng, Na, Oo, Kyaw Soe, Liang, Junxin, Chionh, Yok Hian, Xu, Juan, Ye, Fuzhou, Gao, Yong-Gui, Dedon, Peter C., Fu, Xin-Yuan

“…METTL8, however, modified only mRNA, as determined by biochemical and genetic analyses in Mettl8 null-mutant mice and two human METTL8 mutant cell lines. Our findings provide the first evidence of the existence of m3C modification in mRNA, and the discovery of METTL8 as an mRNA m3C writer enzyme opens the door to future studies of other m3C epitranscriptomic reader and eraser functions.…”

A novel human stem cell platform for probing adrenoceptor signaling in iPSC derived cardiomyocytes including those with an adult atrial phenotype by Ahmad, F

“…</p> <p>Drug targeting of atrial-specific ion channels has been difficult because of lack of availability of appropriate cardiac cells, and preclinical testing studies have been carried out in non-cardiac cell lines, heterogeneous cardiac populations or animal models that have been unable to accurately represent human cardiomyocyte physiology. …”

An aerodynamic investigation of a high-pressure turbine using rotor casing static pressure measurements at engine representative conditions with different tip designs, tip gaps and... by Singh, D, Beard, PF, Cardwell, D, Staelens, V, Bahulekar, P, Stokes, M, Bather, S, Chana, KS

“…Steady and unsteady casing static pressure measurements were acquired, using pneumatic lines and high-frequency response (∼100 kHz) Kulite pressure transducers respectively. …”

Inflammation and colorectal cancer: elucidation of the cellular and molecular mechanisms by which interleukin 22 contributes to the development and progression of colorectal cancer by McCuaig, S

“…Using a panel of CRC cell lines and primary human organoids, we confirmed that this prognostic association is due to a functional interaction between IL-22 and mutant KRAS by observing that IL-22 enhances chemoresistance, 3-dimensional clonogenicity, and proliferation specifically in CRC cells with both high IL-22 receptor levels and <em>KRAS</em> mutations. …”

Citizenship and the politics of poverty definition during the segregation, apartheid and democratic eras in South Africa: 1910-2010 by Magasela, W

“…The Household Subsistence Level (HSL) and the Minimum Living Level (MLL) were derivatives of the PDL (the HSL was exactly the PDL, the MLL was lower in value) and were conceptually similar were used as poverty definitions and poverty lines to fix the wages of black workers, thus showing the link between the denial of citizenship and the politics of poverty definition.…”

Assessing the kinetics of oxygen-unloading from red cells using FlowScore, a flow-cytometric proxy of the functional quality of blood by Rabcuka, J, Smethurst, P, Dammert, K, Saker, J, Aran, G, Walsh, G, Tan, J, Codinach, M, McTaggart, K, Marks, D, Bakker, S, McMahon, A, Di Angelantonio, E, Roberts, D, Blonski, S, Korczyk, P, Shirakami, A, Cardigan, R, Swietach, P

Performance-based identity in a BIM environment : An architect’s perceptions and experiences by Syafizal, Shahruddin, Mohd, Zairul, Ahmad Tarmizi, Haron, Meor Mohammad, Fared

“…Consequently, architects' failing to adapt their core identity to the varying circumstances may lead to their irrelevance and being side-lined merely as aesthetic building surgeons. The current study therefore seeks a better understanding of their perceptions and experiences in manifesting their identities in the phenomenon. …”

Tablets, Pens, and Pencils: The Influence of Tools on Sketching in Early Stage Design by Das, Madhurima, Huang, May, Yang, Maria C

“…We hypothesize that participants using tablet and pencil will produce fewer drawings than those using pen due to their ability to erase and focus on perfecting drawings, and we expect participants using the tablet to produce cleaner drawings with smoother strokes due to the tablet’s ability to auto-smooth lines. Based on prior literature, we posit that women and gender minorities will produce fewer sketches and use the feathering style of sketching more than men.…”

Regulation of microRNA degradation in Caenorhabditis elegans via the E3 ubiquitin ligase EBAX-1 by Stubna, Michael William

“…TDMD underlies the instability of many miRNAs in diverse cell lines and animals. In this work, I probe the biological scope of TDMD as a regulatory mechanism in the nematode Caenorhabiditis elegans, which tolerates homozygous loss of the ZSWIM8 ortholog, EBAX-1, and expresses some miRNAs that are subject to rapid, developmentally regulated decay. …”
