TL;DR: Overall, similarities are observed between the dynamical properties of supercooled water and those of ionic liquids, such as aggregates of ion pairs.
Abstract: Stokes-Einstein (SE) and Stokes-Einstein-Debye (SED) relations in the neat ionic liquid (IL) [C(2)mim][NTf(2)] and IL/chloroform mixtures are studied by means of molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. For this purpose, we simulate the translational diffusion coefficients of the cations and anions, the rotational correlation times of the C(2)--H bond in the cation C(2)mim(+), and the viscosities of the whole system. We find that the SE and SED relations are not valid for the pure ionic liquid, nor for IL/chloroform mixtures down to the miscibility gap (at 50 wt % IL). The deviations from both relations could be related to dynamical heterogeneities described by the non-Gaussian parameter alpha(t). If alpha(t) is close to zero, at a concentration of 1 wt % IL in chloroform, both relations become valid. Then, the effective radii and volumes calculated from the SE and SED equations can be related to the structures found in the MD simulations, such as aggregates of ion pairs. Overall, similarities are observed between the dynamical properties of supercooled water and those of ionic liquids.

TL;DR: This work describes a community-driven effort, in which more than 20 experts in S. Typhimurium biology and systems biology collaborated to reconcile and expand the S.Typhonium BiGG knowledge-base, and uses the consensus MR to identify potential multi-target drug therapy approaches.
Abstract: Background: Metabolic reconstructions (MRs) are common denominators in systems biology and represent biochemical, genetic, and genomic (BiGG) knowledge-bases for target organisms by capturing currently available information in a consistent, structured manner. Salmonella enterica subspecies I serovar Typhimurium is a human pathogen, causes various diseases and its increasing antibiotic resistance poses a public health problem. Results: Here, we describe a community-driven effort, in which more than 20 experts in S. Typhimurium biology and systems biology collaborated to reconcile and expand the S. Typhimurium BiGG knowledge-base. The consensus MR was obtained starting from two independently developed MRs for S. Typhimurium. Key results of this reconstruction jamboree include i) development and implementation of a community-based workflow for MR annotation and reconciliation; ii) incorporation of thermodynamic information; and iii) use of the consensus MR to identify potential multi-target drug therapy approaches. Conclusion: Taken together, with the growing number of parallel MRs a structured, community-driven approach will be necessary to maximize quality while increasing adoption of MRs in experimental design and interpretation.

TL;DR: From use of a homogenote mutant with an in-frame deletion inSoxF and complementation analysis, it was evident that the soxFGH gene products were not required for lithotrophic growth with thiosulfate.
Abstract: The novel genes soxFGH were identified, completing the sox gene cluster of Paracoccus pantotrophus coding for enzymes involved in lithotrophic sulfur oxidation. The periplasmic SoxF, SoxG, and SoxH proteins were induced by thiosulfate and purified to homogeneity from the soluble fraction. soxF coded for a protein of 420 amino acids with a signal peptide containing a twin-arginine motif. SoxF was 37% identical to the flavoprotein FccB of flavocytochrome c sulfide dehydrogenase of Allochromatium vinosum. The mature SoxF (42,832 Da) contained 0.74 mol of flavin adenine dinucleotide per mol. soxG coded for a novel protein of 303 amino acids with a signal peptide containing a twin-arginine motif. The mature SoxG (29,657 Da) contained two zinc binding motifs and 0.90 atom of zinc per subunit of the homodimer. soxH coded for a periplasmic protein of 317 amino acids with a double-arginine signal peptide. The mature SoxH (32,317 Da) contained two metal binding motifs and 0.29 atom of zinc and 0.20 atom of copper per subunit of the homodimer. SoxXA, SoxYZ, SoxB, and SoxCD (C. G. Friedrich, A. Quentmeier, F. Bardischewsky, D. Rother, R. Kraft, S. Kostka, and H. Prinz, J. Bacteriol. 182:4476-4487, 2000) reconstitute a system able to perform thiosulfate-, sulfite-, sulfur-, and hydrogen sulfide-dependent cytochrome c reduction, and this system is the first described for oxidizing different inorganic sulfur compounds. SoxF slightly inhibited the rate of hydrogen sulfide oxidation but not the rate of sulfite or thiosulfate oxidation. From use of a homogenote mutant with an in-frame deletion in soxF and complementation analysis, it was evident that the soxFGH gene products were not required for lithotrophic growth with thiosulfate.

TL;DR: In this article, cross sections for elastic photoproduction of J / ψ and ϒ mesons are presented, and the energy dependence on the photon-proton center-of-mass energy W γp is analyzed in an extended range with respect to previous measurements of 26≤W −1 ≤ 285 GeV.
