AT 2019aalc: A Bowen Fluorescence Flare with a Precursor Flare in an Active Galactic Nucleus by Marzena Śniegowska, Benny Trakhtenbrot, Lydia Makrygianni, Iair Arcavi, Claudio Ricci, Sara Faris, Biswaraj Palit, D. Andrew Howell, Megan Newsome, Joseph Farah, Curtis McCully, Estefania Padilla-Gonzalez, Giacomo Terreran

“…During the relatively slow dimming that followed the second optical flare, the UV-optical light curve shows a sequence of minor rebrightening events, while the BF and the coronal lines vary (roughly) in tandem with these “bumps” in the broadband light curve. Most of the observed behavior of AT 2019aalc links it to the growing class of BF flares while setting it apart from canonical tidal disruption events. …”

An immunoinformatics approach in designing high-coverage mRNA multi-epitope vaccine against multivariant SARS-CoV-2 by Ernawati Arifin Giri-Rachman, Al Mirahma Febri Kurnianti, Rizarullah, Aditya Hanung Setyadi, Anita Artarini, Marselina Irasonia Tan, Catur Riani, Dessy Natalia, Reza Aditama, Husna Nugrahapraja

“…The selected epitopes consisted of four LBL, five HTL, and three CTL epitopes were combined using linkers to make a multi-epitope construct, which was antigenic, non-allergenic, 257 amino acids long, and most of the structure was coil (61.87%). Furthermore, molecular docking analysis revealed potent interactions between the validated 3D structure and the TLR4 and BCR receptors, while molecular dynamic simulations confirmed the stability of the VC-TLR4 and VC-BCR complexes. …”
