The Cancer/Testis Antigen FATE1 Antagonizes Fission and Preserves Mitochondrial Network Integrity under Cytotoxic Stress Open
FATE1 (Fetal and Adult Testis Expressed 1), also known as BJ-HCC-2, is a cancer-testis antigen with highly restricted expression in normal tissues but aberrant activation in diverse tumor types, where it localizes to both the outer mitocho…

A New Approach to Address Soil Heterogeneity as a Source of Uncertainty in the Flux‐Gradient Method: <span> CO <sub>2</sub> </span> Case Studies Open
The flux‐gradient method (FGM) is an important tool to study soil‐atmosphere and subsurface gas fluxes. The simplicity of the approach can lead to an uncritical application. Typical uncertainty found in the input parameters is not consider…

Liming leads to changes in the physical properties of acidified forest soils Open
Background Forest liming is a common practice in many German forests, which aims primarily at improving soil chemical properties that have been negatively impacted by acid rain. Effects on physical functions have not yet been studied widel…

Spotting ethylene in forest soils—What influences the occurrence of the phytohormone? Open
Due to the rapid microbial degradation, ethylene (ethene; C 2 H 4 ) detection in most soils is difficult. The knowledge about factors favoring the occurrence of C 2 H 4 is mainly based on laboratory experiments which are not necessarily re…

Methanotrophic bacteria in forest soils – should I stay or should I go? Open
Methanotrophic bacteria are capable to uptake methane (CH4) from the atmosphere. They are mainly found in forest soils, making them the most important terrestrial sink for methane. While agricultural soils have partially lost their methane…

Spotting C2H4 in forest soils- what influences the occurrence of the phytohormone?  Open
<p>As a reactive gaseous hydrocarbon, the phytohormone ethylene (Ethene, C<sub>2</sub>H<sub>4</sub>) influences root growth, senescence, and fruit ripening. While plants produce ethylene, microorganisms and fu…

Beyond one-size-fits-all: Estimating effective soil physical parameters for gas flux modelling Open
<p><span>The flux-gradient method (FGM) is a versatile approach for modelling soil gas fluxes from concentration profiles. It is especially useful for continuous and long-term estimations of gas fluxes based on concentrations f…

Analysing the relationship of CO2 and O2 concentrations and flux patterns in forest soils Open
<p>Soils act as bioreactors for the production and consumption of different gases. CO<sub>2</sub> is usually produced in soils due to the oxidation of organic material. Under aerobic conditions, this production is coupled…

Effects of liming on soil structure and GHG fluxes at three spruce sites in SW Germany Open
<p>Forest soils in Central Europe received massive atmospheric deposition of SO<sub>2</sub> and NO<sub>x</sub> during the second half of the 20<sup>th</sup> century. The resulting fast acidificatio…

Long Term Soil Gas Monitoring as Tool to Understand Soil Processes Open
Soils provide many functions as they represent a habitat for flora and fauna, supply water, nutrient, and anchorage for plant growth and more. They can also be considered as large bioreactors in which many processes occur that involve the …

Phosphorylation of the mitochondrial autophagy receptor Nix enhances its interaction with LC3 proteins Open
The mitophagy receptor Nix interacts with LC3/GABARAP proteins, targeting mitochondria into autophagosomes for degradation. Here we present evidence for phosphorylation-driven regulation of the Nix:LC3B interaction. Isothermal titration ca…

Targeting atypical protein kinase C iota reduces viability in glioblastoma stem‐like cells <i>via</i> a notch signaling mechanism Open
In a previous study, Protein Kinase C iota ( PRKCI ) emerged as an important candidate gene for glioblastoma (GBM) stem‐like cell (GSC) survival. Here, we show that PKCι is overexpressed and activated in patient derived GSCs compared with …
