AI-designed prion-capping proteins provide evidence that prion fibril ends are replication-competent surfaces that contribute to prion seeding activity and infectivity

ABSTRACT End-elongation of amyloid fibrils is a prevailing theory to explain prion replication, but direct experimental evidence for this phenomenon is limited by the lack of research tools. To serve as molecular probes for prion fibril termini, here, we designed protein binders...

Uncovering the linguistic tools of coercion and resistance of female genital mutilation in the Upper East Region of Ghana

This research investigates the influence of language in perpetuating the practice of Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) among the Kusaas of the Upper East Region of Ghana. It focuses on the employment of coercive language to enforce adherence to this harmful transnational practice....

Integrated morphological, physiological, biochemical and transcriptomic analyses elucidate core pathways underlying genotypic differences in drought resistance of perennial grasses

Drought stress is the major abiotic factor limiting forage and turf grass growth and productivity. However, systematic studies on the response, adaptation, and molecular mechanisms underlying drought resistance in centipedegrass ( Eremochloa ophiuroides ) remain underexplored. He...

Deep Methane Oxidation over Pd–Glass Fiber Catalysts Prepared by Chemical Vapor Deposition

Abstract Using chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and the traditional method of incipient wetness impregnation, new Pd–glass fiber catalysts (GFCs) for the oxidation of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) were synthesized. GFC samples were characterized by physicochemical methods (SEM...

Unconditional Optimal Error Estimates of a Linearized Nonuniform Alikhanov Scheme for Nonlinear Superdiffusion Equations

In this paper, we consider a nonlinear fractional superdiffusion equation involving a Caputo derivative of order α∈(1,2). Solutions to this class of problems typically exhibit weak singularities near the initial time. To handle this singularity, we introduce an auxiliary variable...

Comparative efficacy of treatment modalities for idiopathic canalicular inflammatory disease: A prospective study

Background Idiopathic Canalicular Inflammatory Disease (ICID) lacks evidence-based management. We compared the long-term efficacy of four treatment modalities using anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) as an objective biomarker. Materials and methods Prospective...

Automated Failure Detection and Container-Level Self-Healing for Dockerized Applications on AWS EC2 Using CloudWatch, Lambda, and Systems Manager

Container failures can interrupt services even when the underlying cloud virtual machine continues to operate normally. This study evaluates a lightweight self-healing approach for a Dockerized application deployed on Amazon EC2. The recovery workflow combines Amazon CloudWatch f...

Citrus: Algebraic Reasoning about Superconductor Electronics

We present Citrus, an embedded DSL in the dependently-typed language Agda that formalizes high-level abstractions for specifying and reasoning about superconducting electronics (SCE) circuits. We build on the existing PyLSE language, a Python DSL for writing SCE programs that pro...

E8 Chiral Symmetry Breaking Generates 120Hz Quadrature Oscillators in Neural Microtubules — E8 Intelligence Research

The 240 E8 root vectors split into 120 positive and 120 negative chirality pairs under sexagesimal projection, each generating a 120Hz quadrature oscillator that resonates within neuronal microtubule quantum vibrations. These 120Hz oscillators emerge as the φ-conjugate of the 132...

The Influence of Religion, Country of Origin, and United States Acculturation on Stress Coping Techniques in a Spanish-Speaking Free Clinic Population

Introduction Many Spanish-speaking individuals in the United States experience high levels of stress but disproportionately underutilize mental health services due to cultural, socioeconomic, and religious barriers in accessing culturally relevant mental health care. Methods Cros...

Searching for guidance: Supreme Court cases carry implications for on‐campus searches

Every year, colleges and universities confront questions about searching students’ or employees’ possessions, living spaces, and work areas. On large campuses, these questions arise routinely. On small private campuses, they may surface only occasionally — but often in serious si...

Human Self-Formative Capacity (HSFC): The Human Capacity for Self-Formation

This record contains the English and Russian language versions of the same conceptual paper. Both versions present the same theoretical framework and research agenda. This paper proposes Human Self-Formative Capacity (HSFC) as a preliminary integrative framework and as a candidat...

Financial Inclusion and Rural Development: Role of Lead Bank in Bhagalpur under the Global Value Chain Framework

Financial inclusion has emerged as a key driver of rural development in India, with the Lead Bank Scheme playing a crucial institutional role in expanding banking services to underserved regions. This study examines the contribution of the Lead Bank in promoting financial inclusi...

Air pollution-related proteomic signatures, molecular mediators, and AF-free life loss: A large-scale proteome-wide analysis

Background Air pollution is a major environmental risk factor for Atrial Fibrillation (AF). We aimed to derive robust, pollutant-specific proteomic signatures to elucidate the biological mechanisms and evaluate their potential risk-stratification utility. Methods We analyzed plas...

🧠 KNOWLEDGE EXTRACTED (rlab #130): 6 constants + 3 methods + 3 research topics + 2 improvements — E8 Intelligence Research

🧠 KNOWLEDGE EXTRACTED (rlab #130): 6 constants + 3 methods + 3 research topics + 2 improvements The persistent appearance of phi and √2 in ancient architecture across cultures may be a resonant signature of E8 lattice symmetry, warranting a Monte Carlo significance test and cros...

Local Microstructure and Hardness of the Oxide-Layer of Oxalic Acid-Anodized A356 Alloy

The cross-sectional microstructure, local chemical composition, and mechanical behavior of anodic oxide layers produced by oxalic acid anodizing of cast A356 aluminum alloy were investigated using digital optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X...

Riverine flood risk mapping using GIS–AHP and climate-driven hydrodynamic simulations in an alpine basin of the Indus River system

The Swat River Basin (SRB), a mountainous sub-catchment of the Indus Basin, has faced frequent floods in the past 25 years. Limited structural and non-structural measures, such as flood risk mapping, early warning systems, and land use planning, continue to expose the SRB. This s...

E8 Hexadecimal-Sexagesimal Phase-Locking in Non-Linear Temporal Manifolds — E8 Intelligence Research

The 60 tetrahedral clusters act as quantized resonance nodes that undergo a phase-shift when the Nibiru modulation reaches a $\phi$-driven integer vertex. This creates a "Temporal Interference Pattern" where the 240 root vectors re-align into a secondary 120-vector symmetry, effe...

Overcoming Uncontrolled Nucleation and Cesium Salt Solubility Limits in Scalable Perovskite Deposition through All-Inorganic Perovskite Nanocrystal Seeding

Abstract Optoelectronic performance, defect density, and thin-film morphology of solution-processable lead halide perovskites are highly dependent on nucleation and growth conditions during processing. Additionally, Cs+ incorporation into the lattice can have benign effects on th...
