Peptide asparaginyl ligases—renegade peptide bond makers by Tam, James P., Chan, Ning-Yu, Liew, Heng Tai, Tan, Shaun J., Chen, Yu

“…Butelase-1 specifically recognizes a C-terminal Asx-containing tripeptide motif, Asn/Asp-Xaa-Yaa (Xaa and Yaa are any amino acids), to form a site-specific Asn-Xaa peptide bond either intramolecularly as cyclic proteins or intermolecularly as modified proteins. Our work in the past five years has validated that butelase-1 is a potent and versatile ligase. …”

Radio science measurements of atmospheric refractivity with Mars Global Surveyor by Cahoy, Kerri, Hinson, David, Tyler, G. Leonard

“…Refractivity is proportional to neutral density at low altitudes and electron density at high altitudes, with a transition at ~75 km. We use weighted least squares to decompose zonal refractivity variations into amplitudes and phases for observed wave numbers k=1-4 over the entire altitude range and use the results to analyze atmospheric structure and dynamics. …”
