Ceratopteris richardii (C-Fern): a model for investigating adaptive modification of vascular plant cell walls
(Frontiers Media, 2013-09-23)
Plant cell walls are essential for most aspects of plant growth, development, and survival, including cell division, expansive cell growth, cell-cell communication, biomechanical properties, and stress responses. Therefore, ...
On the invariants of the cohomology of complements of Coxeter arrangements
(Elsevier, 2019-05-24)
We refine Brieskorn's study of the cohomology of the complement of the reflection arrangement of a finite Coxeter group W. As a result we complete the verification of a conjecture by Felder and Veselov that gives an explicit ...
Lewis acid promoted anomerisation of alkyl O- and S-xylo-, arabino- and fucopyranosides
(Elsevier, 2018-11-24)
Pentopyranoside and 6-deoxyhexopyranosides, such as those from d-xylose, l-arabinose and l-fucose are components of natural products, oligosaccharides or polysaccharides. Lewis acid promoted anomerisation of some of their ...
Engineering a therapeutic lectin by uncoupling mitogenicity from antiviral activity
(Elsevier, 2015-10-22)
A key effector route of the Sugar Code involves lectins that exert crucial regulatory controls by targeting distinct cellular glycans. We demonstrate that a¿¿single amino-acid substitution in a banana lectin, replacing ...
Using polarized Total Synchronous Fluorescence Spectroscopy (pTSFS) with PARAFAC analysis for characterizing intrinsic protein emission
(Elsevier, 2019-10-15)
Using polarized Excitation Emission Matrix (pEEM) spectroscopy to measure the intrinsic emission of proteins offers a potentially useful methodology for a wide variety of potential applications. However, the presence of ...
VERITAS detection of LS 5039 and HESS J1825-137
(Elsevier, 2019-11-07)
With 8 h of observations, VERITAS confirms the detection of two very high energy gamma-ray sources. The gamma-ray binary LS 5039 is detected with a statistical significance of 8.8σ. The measured flux above 1 TeV is near ...
