Structural and biochemical mechanisms of NLRP1 inhibition by DPP9 by Huang, Menghang, Zhang, Xiaoxiao, Toh, Gee Ann, Gong, Qin, Wang, Jia, Han, Zhifu, Wu, Bin, Zhong, Franklin, Chai, Jijie

“…Activation of the NLR protein NLRP1 requires autocleavage within its function-to-find domain (FIIND)1-7. In resting cells, the dipeptidyl peptidases DPP8 and DPP9 interact with the FIIND of NLRP1 and suppress spontaneous NLRP1 activation8,9; however, the mechanisms through which this occurs remain unknown. …”

MCMC inversion of the transient and steady-state creep flow law parameters of dunite under dry and wet conditions by Masuti, Sagar, Barbot, Sylvain

“…We determine the flow law parameters for dunites using a Markov chain Monte Carlo method. We find the activation energy 430 ± 20 and 250 ± 10 kJ/mol for dry and wet conditions, respectively, and the stress exponent 2.0 ± 0.1 for both the dry and wet cases for transient creep, consistently lower than those of steady-state creep, suggesting a separate physical mechanism. …”

Deception POINT / by Brown, Dan, 1964- 274722 author

“…When a new NASA satellite detects evidence of an astonishingly rare object buried deep in the Arctic ice, the floundering space agency proclaims a much-needed victory...a victory that has profound implications for U.S. space policy and the impending presidential election.With the Oval Office in the balance, the President dispatches White House Intelligence analyst Rachel Sexton to the Arctic to verify the authenticity of the find. Accompanied by a team of experts, including the charismatic academic Michael Tolland, Rachel uncovers the unthinkable - evidence of scientific trickery - a bold deception that threatens to plunge the world into controversy...…”
