Differential G-protein-coupled receptor phosphorylation provides evidence for a signaling bar code.
Adrian J Butcher, Rudi Prihandoko, Kok Choi Kong, Phillip McWilliams, Jennifer M Edwards, Andrew Bottrill, Sharad Mistry, Andrew B Tobin
Aug 20, 2020
G-protein-coupled receptors are hyper-phosphorylated in a process that controls receptor coupling to downstream signaling pathways. The pattern of receptor phosphorylation has been proposed to generate a "bar code" that can be...

G-Quadruplexes
Guanine (G)-rich sequences in nucleic acids can assemble into G-quadruplex structures that involve G-quartets linked by loop nucleotides. The structural and topological diversity of G-quadruplexes have attracted great attention...
Revealing the impacts of passive cooling techniques on building energy performance
Environmental concerns and growing energy costs raise the importance of sustainable development and energy conservation. The building sector accounts for a significant portion of total energy consumption. Passive cooling...
Synthesis of Novel Regenerable 13X Zeolite-Polyimide Adsorbent Foams
A new generic synthesis method is presented for the production of a polyimide (PI)/adsorbent (80 wt% 13X zeolite) regenerable foam filter. The method uses a dual parallel reaction foaming process comprising CO 2...

English as a lingua franca communication between domestic helpers and employers in Hong Kong
This paper discusses an exploratory, small-scale study that investigated the use of English as a lingua franca in domestic workplaces in Hong Kong between Filipino employees and Hong Kongese employers. Through data collected...
RNA promotes phase separation of glycolysis enzymes into yeast G bodies in hypoxia.
Gregory G Fuller, Ting Han, Mallory A Freeberg, James J Moresco, Amirhossein Ghanbari Niaki, Nathan P Roach, John R Yates, Sua Myong, John K Kim
Apr 17, 2020
In hypoxic stress conditions, glycolysis enzymes assemble into singular cytoplasmic granules called glycolytic (G) bodies. G body formation in yeast correlates with increased glucose consumption and cell survival. However, the...
Prevalence of dementia in mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan
Yu-Tzu Wu, Gemma-Claire Ali, Maëlenn Guerchet, A Matthew Prina, Kit Yee Chan, Martin Prince, Carol Brayne
Jun 20, 2018
BACKGROUND: There are several existing systematic reviews of prevalence of dementia for mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan, but several studies have been newly reported. The aim of this study is to update prevalence data in...
Modelling and simulation of biased agonism dynamics at a G protein-coupled receptor.
Theoretical models of G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) concentration-response relationships often assume an agonist producing a single functional response via a single active state of the receptor. These models have largely...

The Ta Teh Institute was a prominent and important higher learning institute that existed in Hong Kong during the period of the Chinese Civil War, after the Second World War. The institute was founded in October, 1946 and then...
A joint analysis of influenza-associated hospitalizations and mortality in Hong Kong, 1998-2013.
Influenza viruses may cause severe human infections leading to hospitalization or death. Linear regression models were fitted to population-based data on hospitalizations and deaths. Surveillance data on influenza virus activity...
Amino-Acid-Derived Naphthalenediimides as Versatile G-Quadruplex Binders
The design and synthesis of water soluble, amino-acid-functionalised naphthalenediimides (NDIs) as potential ligands of native G-quadruplexes is reported. The NDIs were tested on a panel of oncogene promoters, on the human...
