Another way to break down

hen yeast secretory proteins are improperly folded, the ER quality control system directs them into the HRD/DER pathway, which targets the proteins for degradation. Blocking the HRD/DER pathway, however, does not completely stop degradation, implying that there must be an alternative way to destroy misfolded secretory proteins. Haynes et al., reporting on page 91, have now characterized that pa...

A way to break supersymmetry

I study the spontaneous breakdown of supersymmetry when higher-dimensional Yang-Mills or the type-I SO(32) string theory are compactified on magnetized tori. Because of the universal gyromagnetic ratio g = 2, the splittings of all multiplets are given by the product of charge times internal helicity operators. As a result such compactifications have two remarkable and robust features: (a) they ...

The Reduction of Two-Way Automata to One-Way Automata

We describe a new elementary reduction of two-way automata to one-way automata. The reduction is based on the subset construction rather than on crossing sequence analysis.

The One Way to Quantum Computation

One Way to Select Many

Selecting items from a collection is one of the most common tasks users perform with graphical user interfaces. Practically every application supports this task with a selection feature different from that of any other application. Defects are common, especially in manipulating selections of non-adjacent elements, and flexible selection features are often missing when they would clearly be usef...
