1. SUMO orchestrates multiple alternative DNA-protein crosslink repair pathways 

   Serbyn N.; Bagdiul I.; Noireterre A.; et al. (2021)

   Cell Reports

   Endogenous metabolites, environmental agents, and therapeutic drugs promote formation of covalent DNA-protein crosslinks (DPCs). Persistent DPCs compromise genome integrity and are eliminated by multiple repair pathways. Aberrant Top1-DNA crosslinks, or Top1ccs, are processed by Tdp1 and Wss1 functioning in parallel pathways in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. It remains obscure how cells choose between diverse mechanisms of DPC repair. Here, ...

2. Low-power Hybrid Energy Harvesting System Based on the Joint Operation of Glucose Biofuel Cells and Thermoelectric Generator 

   Gazizova D.; Shcherbak A.; Gotovtsev P.; et al. (2021)

   IECON Proceedings (Industrial Electronics Conference)

   Wearable devices continuously gain their popularity due to flexibility and opportunity to enable more applications and services, in particular, in healthcare industry. Guarantying long-term operation for these devices is among the key challenges at the design stage. In this work, we propose a multi-source energy harvesting system to address this problem. The proposed solution is based on two technologies namely an Enzymatic Biofuel Cell ...

3. First-order nonlinear eigenvalue problems involving functions of a general oscillatory behavior 

   Komijani J. (2021)

   Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical

   Eigenvalue problems arise in many areas of physics, from solving a classical electromagnetic problem to calculating the quantum bound states of the hydrogen atom. In textbooks, eigenvalue problems are defined for linear problems, particularly linear differential equations such as time-independent Schrödinger equations. Eigenfunctions of such problems exhibit several standard features independent of the form of the underlying equations. ...

4. Melanized-Cationic Cellulose Nanofiber Foams for Bioinspired Removal of Cationic Dyes 

   Tran-Ly A.N.; De France K.J.; Rupper P.; et al. (2021)

   Biomacromolecules

   In recent years, water pollution has developed into a severe environmental and public health problem due to rapid urbanization and industrialization, especially in some developing countries. Finding solutions to tackle water pollution is urgently required and is of global importance. Currently, a range of water treatment methods are available; however, a water remediation process that is simple, inexpensive, eco-friendly, and effective ...

5. SNAP:Successor Entropy based Incremental Subgoal Discovery for Adaptive Navigation 

   Dubey R.K.; Sohn S.S.; Abualdenien J.; et al. (2021)

   Proceedings - MIG 2021: 14th ACM SIGGRAPH Conference on Motion, Interaction, and Games

   Reinforcement learning (RL) has demonstrated great success in solving navigation tasks but often fails when learning complex environmental structures. One open challenge is to incorporate low-level generalizable skills with human-like adaptive path-planning in an RL framework. Motivated by neural findings in animal navigation, we propose a Successor eNtropy-based Adaptive Path-planning (SNAP) that combines a low-level goal-conditioned ...
