Cross-country evidence on the adoption of energy-efficient retrofit measures (EERMs) in residential buildings is critical to supporting the development of national and pan-European policies aimed at fostering the energy performance upgrade of the building stock. In this light, the aim of this paper is to advance in the understanding of the probability of certain EERMs taking place in eight EU countries, according to a set of parameters, such as building typology, project types, and motivation behind the project. Using these parameters collected via a multi-country online survey, a set of discrete-choice (conditional logit) models are estimated on the probability of selecting a choice of any combination of 33 EERMs across the sampled countries. Results show that actions related to the building envelope are the most often-addressed across countries and single building elements or technology measures have a higher probability of being implemented. The modelling framework developed in this study contributes to the scientific community in three ways: (1) establishing an empirical relationship among EERMs and project (i.e., retrofit and deep retrofit), (2) identifying commonalities and differences across the selected countries, and (3) quantifying the probabilities and market shares of various EERMs.

However, this goal is dependent on a comprehensive understanding of Mtb virulence protein effectors at the molecular level. Here, we used a post-expression cysteine (Cys)-to-dehydrolanine (Dha) chemical editing strategy to identify a water-mediated motif that modulates accessibility of the protein tyrosine phosphatase A (PtpA) catalytic pocket. Importantly, this water-mediated Cys-Cys non-covalent motif is also present in the phosphatase SptpA from Staphylococcus aureus, which suggests a potentially preserved structural feature among bacterial tyrosine phosphatases. The identification of this structural water provides insight into the known resistance of Mtb PtpA to the oxidative conditions that prevail within an infected host macrophage. This strategy could be applied to extend the understanding of the dynamics and function(s) of proteins in their native state and ultimately aid in the design of small-molecule modulators. ; We thank CNPq Brazil (fellowship 200456/2015-6 to J.B.B. and grants 454507/2014-3 and 300606/2010-9 to H.T.), the Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia (FCT Investigator award IF/00624/2015 to G.J.L.B.), the European Union (Marie-Sklodowska Curie Innovative Training Network Protein Conjugates; Marie Skłodowska-Curie Individual Fellowship 743640 to T.R.; Marie-Curie Intra-European Fellowship 626890 to O.B.), the Ministerio de Economía, Industria, y Competitividad (project CTQ2015-67727-R to F.C.), and the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (PhD studentship to L.D.) for funding.
