Intrinsically disordered regions in eukaryotic proteomes contain key signaling and regulatory modules and mediate interactions with many proteins.Many viral proteomes encode disordered proteins and modulate host factors through the use of short linear motifs (SLiMs) embedded within disordered regions.However, the degree of viral protein disorder ac
Increasing Access to Acceptable and Affordable Gluten-Free Baked Goods
Transitioning to a Permanent gluten-free (GF) diet can be difficult due to limited reliable recipes to produce baked goods at home and poor quality of commercially available baked goods.This study tested basic recipes capable of creating acceptable GF baked products at home using commercially available GF flour blends.Recipes for a drop cookie, rol
Analysis of Milk Microstructure Using Raman Hyperspectral Imaging
Optical spectroscopic analysis of the chemical composition of milk in its natural state is complicated by a complex colloidal structure, represented by differently sized fat and protein particles.The classical techniques of molecular spectroscopy in the visible, near-, and mid-infrared ranges carry only bulk chemical information about a sample, whi
Invertebrate-biased diet of burrowing owls in a newly-restored coastal grassland
Recovering biodiversity across trophic levels is a major challenge in restoration ecology.Specifically, predator population recovery depends on the Decoupage Paper timely re-establishment of their preferred prey species in restored habitats.Here, we evaluate potential dietary factors contributing to the loss of western burrowing owls (Athene cunicu
A portable transistor immunosensor for fast identification of porcine epidemic diarrhea virus
Abstract Widespread distribution of porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) has led to catastrophic losses to the global pig farming industry.As a result, there is an urgent need for rapid, sensitive and accurate tests for PEDV to enable timely and Nakiri Knives effective interventions.In the present study, we develop and validate a floating gate ca
