Structural basis of transposon end recognition explains central features of Tn7 transposition systems

Structural basis of transposon end recognition explains central features of Tn7 transposition systems

23.02.2023
Transposases are proteins crucial for the mobility of transposons – genetic elements that can move within genomes. In prokaryotes, this process can lead to the horizontal transfer of virulence genes, contributing to the emergence of novel superbugs. SOLARIS Centre users have solved a 2.7 Å cryo-EM structure of prototypic Tn7 transposase TnsB interacting with the transposon end DNA.

Beating the limitation of the Néel temperature of FeO with antiferromagnetic proximity in FeO/CoO

Beating the limitation of the Néel temperature of FeO with antiferromagnetic proximity in FeO/CoO

24.03.2023
In our studies we investigated the influence of the proximity of the antiferromagnetic CoO layer on the magnetic properties of ultrathin wüstite (FeO) films. Comparative Mössbauer spectroscopy measurements for MgO/FeO/MgO(001) and MgO/FeO/CoO/MgO(001) show that the neighboring CoO layer can significantly enhance the ordering temperature of wüstite. The TN of CoO in the FeO/CoO bilayer was determined with a use of X-ray magnetic linear dichroism (XMLD) measurements.

High-temperature co-electrolysis of CO<sub>2</sub>/H<sub>2</sub>O and direct methanation over Co-impregnated SOEC. Bimetallic synergy between Co and Ni

High-temperature co-electrolysis of CO2/H2O and direct methanation over Co-impregnated SOEC. Bimetallic synergy between Co and Ni

02.02.2023
To study the synergy between the transition metals for enhancing the electrochemical and chemical activity, a series of SOECs were modified with a small amount of Co ions, namely 1.8, 3.6, and 5.4 wt% in the reduced state.
