Studying proteins in living cells generally requires the construction of a fusion protein between the protein of interest and an appropriate tag. Currently used fusion protein-based assays rely on the genetically encoded properties of the tag, which signif ...
Capture numbers are used in models of nucleation and growth on surfaces, and have been widely applied to predict nucleation densities and other quantities via rate equations. In conventional nucleation theory, much effort has historically been expended on ...
We consider the consensus problem in self-organized networks such as MANETs. Consensus offers a means for reliably solving agreement related problems, which in a self-organized setting can help bring enhanced structure and reliability to the highly dynamic ...
Attachment-induced ionization instability has been experimentally observed in O-2 and CF4 capacitive RF discharges using time-resolved voltage probe, Langmuir probe, optical emission and mass spectrometry measurements. This instability occurs under specifi ...
A recent study has shown that the Hook protein ZYG-12 of Caenorhabditis elegans is essential for attachment of the centrosome to the nucleus. The results suggest a novel mechanism for the tight coupling between these two organelles, and shed new light on i ...
Motor proteins and microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs) play important roles in cellular transport, regulation of shape and polarity of cells. While motor proteins generate motility, MAPs are thought to stabilize the microtubule tracks. However, the prot ...
Many laboratory studies have shown the beneficial effects of weld improvement methods on the fatigue strength of welded details. However, no structural codes systematically include weld improvement methods in detail classification. The purpose of this pape ...
The fluctuating behavior of a Sulzer Metco F4 de plasma gun has been investigated by simultaneous measurement of the:time dependencies of the are voltage and of images from the nozzle interior. An end-on imaging arrangement using a mirror and a mask in the ...
Several groups are presently investigating the opportunity to fabricate miniaturized optical devices characterized by high attachment precision. An automated surface mounted technique based on standardized supports of 10x10x4 mm(3) size and on active insit ...
Following ICOM’s participation in the redaction of a new recommendation for the evaluation of existing railway-bridges, in collaboration with the SBB/CFF, new questions have been raised. Among those, the influence of a welded longitudinal attachment ends s ...
