Comparative Aspects of Labor Movements

Explaining Movements in the Labor Share1

In this paper we study the evolution of the labor share in the OECD since 1970. We show it is essentially related to the capital-output ratio; that this relationship is shifted by factors like the price of imported materials or the skill mix; and that discrepancies between the marginal product of labor and the real wage (due to, e.g., product market power, union bargaining, and labor adjustment...

Comparative aspects of glycosyltransferases.

Glycosyltransferases, the enzymes that build oligosaccharides and glycoconjugates, have received much interest in recent years owing to their biological functions and their potential uses in biotechnology. Despite the fact that many glycosyltransferases recognize similar donor or acceptor substrates, there is surprisingly limited sequence identity between different classes. On the one hand, the...

The outcome of their union, the zygote, is a cell possessing the tremendous potential to build a new individual that expresses, maintains, and propagates characteristics of the species...
