The possible use of the method of 3H-label introduction by means of a 3H-atom beam for investigating the three-dimensional structure (surface) of proteins was studied. The intramolecular distribution of tritium in the N-terminal part of 3H-labelled sperm-whale myoglobin was studied. The results obtained are in good agreement with the X-ray analysis data on the polypeptide chain of the protein molecule. The possible use of this method for constructing precise three-dimensional models of polypeptides and proteins is discussed.

In the past few years, three protein molecules-USP53, NPY2R, and DCTN1-AS1-have garnered significant attention in scientific research due to their potential implications in tumor development. Mass spectrometry and proteomics techniques were used to analyze the three-dimensional structure of these protein molecules and predict their active sites and functional domains. The effects of USP53, NPY2R and DCTN1-AS1 on biological behavior of tumor cells were studied by constructing gene knockout and overexpression cell models.

A major threat to world health is the high death rate from gastrointestinal (GI) cancer, especially in Asia, South America, and Europe. The new approaches are needed because of the complexity and heterogeneity of gastrointestinal (GI) cancer, which has made the development of effective treatments difficult. To investigate the potential of peptide-based therapies that target the P21 Activated Kinase 1 (PAK1) in GI cancer, we are using the DBsORF database to predict peptides from the genomes of two bacterial strains: Lactobacillus plantarum and Pediococcus pentosaceus.

Background: Impairment of the visceral pleura following thoracic surgery often leads to air leaks and intrathoracic adhesions. For preventing such complications, mesothelial cell proliferation at the pleural defects can be effective. To develop new materials for pleural defects restoration, we constructed a hybrid artificial pleural tissue (H-APLT) combining polyglycolic acid (PGA) nanofiber sheets with a three-dimensional culture of mesothelial cells and fibroblasts and evaluated its therapeutic efficacy in a rat pleural defect model.

ConspectusThe electronic properties of atomically thin van der Waals (vdW) materials can be precisely manipulated by vertically stacking them with a controlled offset (for example, a rotational offset─i.e., twist─between the layers, or a small difference in lattice constant) to generate moiré superlattices.

Hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN), with excellent thermal conductivity and insulation capability, has garnered significant attention in the field of electronic thermal management. However, the thermal conductivity of the h-BN-enhanced polymer composite material is far from that expected because of the insurmountable interfacial thermal resistance. In order to realize the high thermal conductivity of polymer composite thermal interface materials, herein, an in situ exfoliation method has been employed to prepare a boron nitride nanosheet-graphene (BNNS-Gr) hybrid filler.
