Impact of trace noble metals on the catalytic performance of LaNiMgO towards methane dry reforming by Mohamed, Assem T.

“…In addition, the presence of noble metals at the Ni surface afforded a high density of adsorbed oxygen species, which enhanced coke gasification and consequently decreased the extent of deactivation of the catalysts by coke formation. …”

Identification of an amino-terminus determinant critical for ryanodine receptor/Ca2+ release channel function. by Seidel, Monika

“…The negatively-charged side chains of two aspartate residues (D179 and D180) within the β8-β9 loop are crucial for the N-terminal inter-subunit interaction. We also show that the RyR2 N-terminus domain interacts with the C-terminal channel pore region in a Ca2+-independent manner. …”

Effect of sintering temperature of NBT–6BT lead-free ceramics on the structural, ferroelectric and piezoelectric properties by Slimani, Ahmed

“…The XRD results show that the 850 °C is the best calcination temperature, where the NBT-6BT ceramic had the largest crystallite size with a dense sample, 96% of the theoretical value. However, the density decreased significantly with increasing the calcination temperature above 850 °C due to the secondary phase formation. …”

Microbiota-derived acetate activates intestinal innate immunity via the Tip60 histone acetyltransferase complex by Bat-Erdene, Jugder

“…In these cells, the IMD pathway co-regulates expression of antimicrobial and enteroendocrine peptides including tachykinin, a repressor of intestinal lipid synthesis. To determine whether acetate acts on a cell surface pattern recognition receptor or an intracellular target, we asked whether acetate import was essential for IMD signaling. …”
