Dataset on Electric Road Mobility: Historical and Evolution Scenarios until 2050.

An increasing adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) is expected in the coming decades mainly due to the need to achieve carbon neutrality until 2050. However, predicting electric mobility's future is challenging due to three main factors: technological advancements, regulatory policies, and consumer behaviour. The projections presented in this study are based on several scenarios driven mainly from reports published by public entities and consultants.

Stressed? Break-induced replication comes to the rescue!

Break-induced replication (BIR) is a homologous recombination (HR) pathway that repairs one-ended DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs), which can result from replication fork collapse, telomere erosion, and other events. Eukaryotic BIR has been mainly investigated in yeast, where it is initiated by invasion of the broken DNA end into a homologous sequence, followed by extensive replication synthesis proceeding to the chromosome end. Multiple recent studies have described BIR in mammalian cells, the properties of which show many similarities to yeast BIR.

Catalytically Active SiO Aerogels Comprising Chelate Complexes of Palladium.

A series of silica-based aerogels comprising novel bifunctional chelating ligands was prepared. To produce target aerogels, two aminosilanes, namely (3-aminopropyl)trimethoxysilane (APTMS) and -(2-aminoethyl)-3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (AEAPTMS), were acylated by natural amino acids (()-(+)-2-phenylglycine or -phenylalanine), followed by gelation and supercritical drying (SCD). Lithium tetrachloropalladate was used as the metal ion source to prepare strong complexes of Pd with amino acids covalently bonded to a silica matrix.

Alternative Lengthening of Telomeres in Yeast: Old Questions and New Approaches.

Alternative lengthening of telomeres (ALT) is a homologous recombination-based pathway utilized by 10-15% of cancer cells that allows cells to maintain their telomeres in the absence of telomerase. This pathway was originally discovered in the yeast and, for decades, yeast has served as a robust model to study ALT. Using yeast as a model, two types of ALT (-dependent and -independent) have been described.

Sarcoidosis-related autoimmune inflammation in COVID-19 convalescent patients.

Currently, there are a large number of reports about the development of autoimmune conditions after COVID-19. Also, there have been cases of sarcoid-like granulomas in convalescents as a part of the post-COVID-19 syndrome. Since one of the etiological theories of sarcoidosis considers it to be an autoimmune disease, we decided to study changes in the adaptive humoral immune response in sarcoidosis and SARS-CoV-2 infection and to find out whether COVID-19 can provoke the development of sarcoidosis.
