DOI: 10.1007/s12185-022-03324-w
Abstract: ADAMTS13, a metalloproteinase, specifically cleaves unusually large multimers of von Willebrand factor (VWF), newly released from vascular endothelial cells. The ratio of ADAMTS13 activity to VWF antigen (ADAMTS13/VWF) and indicators of the alternative complement pathway… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.cretres.2020.104412
Abstract: Abstract All of the bird specimens previously recovered from Burmese amber have belonged to either immature specimens, or small-bodied taxa belonging to Enantiornithes. This has led to questions about whether the size bias inherent to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jpubeco.2020.104162
Abstract: I explore labor supply responses to an unusually large and salient notch generated by the “Mini-Job” program in Germany. Using administrative data, I document three findings. First, despite the unusually large magnitude of incentives, earnings… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/apr.2018.12
Abstract: Abstract The largest components of the critical Erdős–Rényi graph, G(n, p) with p = 1 / n, have size of order n 2/3 with high probability. We give detailed asymptotics for the probability that there… read more here.

DOI: 10.1091/mbc.e24-11-0499
Abstract: Specialized, maternally derived ribonucleoprotein (RNP) granules play an important role in specifying the primordial germ cells in many animal species. Typically, these germ granules are small (∼100 nm to a few microns in diameter) and… read more here.

Evolutionary Consequences of Unusually Large Pericentric TE-rich Regions in the Genome of a Neotropical Fig Wasp

DOI: 10.1093/gbe/evaf158
Abstract: Transposable elements (TEs), despite generally being considered deleterious, represent a substantial portion of most eukaryotic genomes. Specific genomic regions, such as telomeres and pericentromeres, are often densely populated with TEs. In these regions, which tend… read more here.

Tsw – A case study on structure-function puzzles in plant NLRs with unusually large LRR domains

DOI: 10.3389/fpls.2022.983693
Abstract: Plant disease immunity heavily depends on the recognition of plant pathogens and the subsequent activation of downstream immune pathways. Nod-like receptors are often crucial in this process. Tsw, a Nod-like resistance gene from Capsicum chinense… read more here.
