Published in 2018 at "FEBS Letters"

DOI: 10.1002/1873-3468.13234

Abstract: Membrane fusion and fission are fundamental processes in living organisms. Membrane fusion occurs through the formation of a fusion pore, which is the structure that connects two lipid membranes during their fusion. Fusion pores can… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "FEBS Open Bio"

DOI: 10.1002/2211-5463.13966

Abstract: Neurotransmitter release is triggered in microseconds by the two C2 domains of the Ca2+ sensor synaptotagmin‐1 and by SNARE complexes, which form four‐helix bundles that bridge the vesicle and plasma membranes. The synaptotagmin‐1 C2B domain… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Advanced Engineering Materials"

DOI: 10.1002/adem.201900796

Abstract: The crystallinity determination of polymers using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) is a standard procedure in industrial and university research. Its value strongly depends on the enthalpy of fusion, which cannot be determined directly using DSC,… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Advanced Functional Materials"

DOI: 10.1002/adfm.201702017

Abstract: This study reports polysaccharide-based fibers that can be utilized as biocompatible functional sutures. Fibers are spontaneously formed by spinning at the interface between two oppositely charged polysaccharide solutions. Unlike the common belief that polysaccharide fibers… read more here.
