A glyco-engineering approach for site-specific conjugation to Fab glycans by Maria L. Jaramillo, Traian Sulea, Yves Durocher, Mauro Acchione, Melissa J. Schur, Anna Robotham, John F. Kelly, Marie-France Goneau, Alma Robert, Yuneivy Cepero-Donates, Michel Gilbert

“…In conventional ADCs, the drug molecules are chemically attached randomly to antibody surface residues (typically Lys or Cys), which can interfere with epitope binding and targeting, and lead to overall product heterogeneity, long-term colloidal instability and unfavorable pharmacokinetics. Here, we present a more controlled process for generating ADCs where drug is specifically conjugated to only Fab N-linked glycans in a narrow ratio range through functionalized sialic acids. …”

Cultural Landscape and Heritage as an Opportunity for Territorial Resilience—The Case of the Border Between Castile and Leon and Cantabria by María Teresa Pérez Cano, Ainhoa Maruri Arana

“…After the COVID-19 pandemic and in a context of overpopulation in large cities, the rural area emerged as a space of opportunity for more sustainable territorial rebalancing. Despite the evident tendency towards their population emptying, they are places endowed with their own qualities and specific values, currently in danger, especially in border areas between the regions, which are far from centralised nuclei and generate conflicts due to the transfer of powers to them from the State. …”

Leisure, work and simultaneous study in distance and virtual students (Ocio, trabajo y estudio simultáneo de estudiantes en modalidad a distancia y virtual) by Leonardo Andrés Aguirre-Cardona, Isabel Rubio-Florido, Edwin Alberto Puerto-Rodríguez

“…  The studies, analysis, reflections and positions regarding the leisure-work relationship is not new and is current, although sometimes it is not tangible and visible at first glance, even more so when the young population in Colombia takes advantage of distance and virtual education to be able to work and generate income and thus pay for a study; Thus, it was sought to analyze the incidence of working and studying simultaneously in the leisure time and spaces of students in distance and virtual mode of the Minuto de Dios-Uniminuto University Corporation in Bogotá-Colombia. …”

Can open-defecation free (ODF) communities be sustained? A cross-sectional study in rural Ghana. by Caroline Delaire, Joyce Kisiangani, Kara Stuart, Prince Antwi-Agyei, Ranjiv Khush, Rachel Peletz

“…Multivariate regression analysis indicated that communities had higher toilet coverage when they were located further from major roads, were not located on rocky soil, reported having a system of fines to punish open defecation, and when less time had elapsed since ODF status achievement. Households were more likely to own a functional toilet if they were larger, wealthier, had a male household head who had not completed primary education, had no children under the age of five, and benefitted from the national Livelihood Empowerment Against Poverty (LEAP) program. …”
