Optimal enzyme utilization suggests that concentrations and thermodynamics determine binding mechanisms and enzyme saturations
Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Daniel Robert Weilandt, Asli Sahin
One of the main challenges hampering the development of kinetic models is the lack of kinetic parameters for many enzymatic reactions. Here, the authors introduce a framework to explore the catalytically optimal operating conditions of any complex enzyme m ...
NATURE PORTFOLIO2023Worldwide analysis of reef surveys sorts coral taxa by associations with recent and past heat stress
Stéphane Joost, Oliver Michele Selmoni, Véronique Berteaux-Lecellier
Coral reefs around the world are under threat from anomalous heat waves that are causing the widespread decline of hard corals. Different coral taxa are known to have different sensitivities to heat, although variation in susceptibilities have also been ob ...
FRONTIERS MEDIA SA2022The interplay between human genetic variation, chronic inflammation and persistent infection: relevance for cardiovascular morbidity
Contemporary genomic approaches allow us to seek answers to biological questions that were previously out of reach. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified numerous genetic polymorphisms associated with human diseases, providing new insight ...
EPFL2022Negentropic linguistic evolution: A comparison of seven languages
Frédéric Kaplan, Vincent Christian Buntinx
The relationship between the entropy of language and its complexity has been the subject of much speculation – some seeing the increase of linguistic entropy as a sign of linguistic complexification or interpreting entropy drop as a marker of greater regul ...
