Data_Sheet_1_Increasing Temperature and Microplastic Fibers Jointly Influence Soil Aggregation by Saprobic Fungi.docx by Yun Liang (383275)

“…<p>Microplastic pollution and increasing temperature have potential to influence soil quality; yet little is known about their effects on soil aggregation, a key determinant of soil quality. Given the importance of fungi for soil aggregation, we investigated the impacts of increasing temperature and microplastic fibers on aggregation by carrying out a soil incubation experiment in which we inoculated soil individually with 5 specific strains of soil saprobic fungi. …”

The effect of the G369E mutation on the structure of BCKDK protein is shown. by J. Samuel Zigler Jr. (3145044)

“…In the mutant, the helix containing residue E369 is moving outward from the ADP binding site due to repulsion from the negatively charged residue E275. This might suggest a decrease in ADP binding activity by the mutant enzyme due to the replacement of glycine in normal BCKDK by the negatively charged glutamic acid in the mutant variant.…”
