A model for the chemomechanical coupling of the mammalian cytoplasmic dynein molecular motorAbstractAvailable single-molecule data have shown that some mammalian cytoplasmic dynein dimers move on microtubules with a constant step size of about 8.2 nm. Here, a model is presented for the chemomechanical coupling of these mammalian cytoplasmic dynein dimers. In contrast to the previous models, a peculiar feature of the current model is that the rate constants of ATPase activity are independent of the...

Abortive activity of Topoisomerase I: a challenge for genome integrity?AbstractSingle-strand breaks (SSB) are discontinuities in one strand of the DNA double helix and are the most common type of damages that arise in cells. SSBs arise mainly from direct attack by intracellular metabolites, however, also essential nuclear processes generate SSBs as intermediates. During the catalytic cycle of DNA topoisomerase I (Top1) a SSB is generated, which is normally transient and rapidly resealed by the enzyme....

On Being Known: God and the Private-IAbstractGiven recent discussions of personal privacy, or more particularly, its invasion via the internet, it is not surprising to find the issue of personal privacy emerging regarding God's relation to our private lives. Two different and opposing views of this God-person relation have surfaced in the literature: (A) 'God and Privacy' by Falls-Corbitt and Michael McLain, and (B) 'Privacy and Control' by Scott Davison. I discuss key elements in both sides of this...

Cultivation Intensity in Combination with Other Ecological Factors as Limiting Ones for the Abundance of Phytopathogenic Fungi on WheatAbstractIn field and laboratory experiments during 2014–2017, we investigated the influence of lower and higher cultivation intensity of wheat and ecological factors (weather—temperature and rainfalls, year) on the occurrence of phytopathogenic fungi on the leaves of winter wheat. The prevailing fungi in those years were Mycosphaerella graminicola (Fuckel) J. Schrott...

 Clinical Cancer Research Online First ArticlesUshering in Liquid Biopsy for the Microsatellite Status: Advantages and CaveatsMicrosatellite instable tumors often respond to immune checkpoint blockade (ICB), however, tumor tissue is unavailable/insufficient in some patients. Two groups are reporting a blood-based assessment of the microsatellite status validated in tumor tissue and by clinical benefit in patient receiving ICB. Both approaches are highly appealing with a few caveats.Clinical Cancer...

 The Journal of PhysiologyPresence of synchrony‐generating hubs in the human epileptic neocortexKey points Initiation of pathological synchronous events such as epileptic spikes and seizures is linked to the hyperexcitability of the neuronal network both in humans and animals. Here we show that epileptiform interictal‐like spikes and seizures emerged in human neocortical slices by blocking GABAA receptors, following the disappearance of the spontaneously occurring synchronous population activity....
