The paper introduces an origami-based model to visualize amyloid beta-sheet structures and their topological arrangements, aiding in teaching amyloid folding and related concepts.

This study investigates the relationship between temperature and B-factors in a trypsin-benzamidine complex, finding that B-factor variation is constant across temperature and not linked to conformational changes.

This study identifies a hydrophobic grease that enables X-ray diffraction data collection across a wide temperature range, from 100 K to 300 K, with minimal exposure time effects.

This study shows that dietary zinc restriction in adult mice causes irreversible allodynia and metabolic changes, which are reversed by zinc repletion.

The paper uses MALDI-imaging mass spectrometry to analyze pancreatic hormone proteoforms in mice, showing reduced peptide intermediates under zinc restriction.

This study develops and characterizes polymeric microparticles for oral delivery of pramlintide, showing prolonged release compared to intravenous administration.

This study shows that zinc restriction in mice leads to increased β-cell hormone levels and pancreatic islet degeneration despite reduced islet size.
