AbstractControl of metabolism by compartmentation is a widespread feature of higher cells. Recent studies have focused on dynamic intracellular bodies such as stress granules, P-bodies, nucleoli, and metabolic puncta. These bodies appear as separate phases, some containing reversible, amyloid-like fibrils formed by interactions of low-complexity protein domains. Here we report five atomic structures of segments of low-complexity domains from granule-forming proteins, one determined to 1.1 Å resolution by micro-electron diffraction. Four of these interacting protein segments show common characteristics, all in contrast to pathogenic amyloid: kinked peptide backbones, small surface areas of interaction, and predominate attractions between aromatic side-chains. By computationally threading the human proteome on three of our kinked structures, we identified hundreds of low-complexity segments potentially capable of forming such reversible interactions. These segments are found in proteins as diverse as RNA binders, nuclear pore proteins, keratins, and cornified envelope proteins, consistent with the capacity of cells to form a wide variety of dynamic intracellular bodies.One Sentence SummaryAtomic structures show transient membraneless organelles of cells formed by a new type of protein interaction akin to pathogenic amyloid fibrils.

Abstract Satellite-based solar power data is becoming more and more important because of its continuous temporal and spatial availability. However, its reliability can be enhanced through quality control and calibration against ground-based measurement data. Here, a holistic methodology is employed for the adaptation of satellite-based data for estimating solar energy. For the purpose, high-quality ground-based measurement data and satellite-based datasets are assessed across 12 sites in three small islands located in the Indian Ocean. Initially, both datasets go through a rigorous quality control process. A quantitative analysis of irradiance and insolation data is then conducted. Eventually, site adaptation of satellite-based data is performed using bias removal technique and statistical analysis of datasets. A set of seven statistical performance indicators is used to support the assessment. Analysis of datasets shows that adaptation of peak values should be performed separately. Results showed that despite the small surface areas of the islands studied, a spatial variation of insolation can be depicted. A temporal variation of insolation is also noted with a peak in the summer and low insolation levels in winter. Peak irradiance values tend to exceed solar constant for all sites. Variations of peak irradiance can only be noticed in ground-based measurement data. While insolation levels are comparable in the summer season for all the sites, insolation levels in the winter season are higher in the sites with lower latitudes. Calibration factors for peak irradiance, monthly and annual average irradiance as well as yearly insolation are presented.

Introduction. Lymphoid cells will, under certain conditions, exhibit striking exemples of surface receptor movement upon exposure to specific ligands. The receptors will first assemble in a few small surface areas (patching) and eventually aggregate at one pole of the cell (capping), leaving practically no receptors of the same specificity elsewhere on the cell surface. For a number of reasons cytoskeletal elements, like microtubules and microfilaments, are thought to play an important role in the movement of the cell surface receptors. However, the exact mechanism by which the cytoskeleton has its facilitating or inhibiting effect on receptor mobility is still largely a matter of speculation.During an investigation on non-Hodgkin lymphoma's we obtained leukocytes from three patients with clinically different leukemia's, i.e. hairy cell leukemia (HCL), prolymphocytic leukemia (PLL), and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). These gave different results in capping tests with Concanavalin A (ConA) and with antibodies against total Ig (Alg).
