Recent advances in distance-based protein folding have led to a paradigm shift in protein structure prediction.Through sufficiently precise estimation of the inter-residue distance matrix for a protein sequence, it is now feasible to predict the correct folds for new proteins much more accurately than ever before.Despite the exciting progress, a de
Hibernating mammals drastically lower their metabolic rate (MR) and body temperature (Tb) for up to several weeks, but regularly rewarm and stay euthermic for brief periods.It has been hypothesized that the necessity for rewarming is due to the accumulation or depletion of metabolites, or the accrual of cellular damage that can be eliminated only i
Plastics are ubiquitous in our daily life.However, the use of petrochemical-based plastic as packaging materials causes the depletion of non-renewable resources, thereby leading to an increase in oil prices and economic crises.Moreover, these petrochemical plastics raise the issue of environmental pollution due to their non-biodegradability.Owing t
Abstract Background Social alienation is prevalent among lung cancer (LC) patients undergoing chemotherapy.Although previous research has established an association between social alienation and symptom burden, the mechanisms underlying this relationship remain not fully understood.Methods This cross-sectional study used convenience sampling to sel
