Ribosomal ambiguity made less ambiguous.
In PNAS, Fagan et al. (1) report a significant step forward in the quest to understand how the fidelity with which ribosomes translate the sequences of mRNAs into protein sequences is determined. The crystal structures discussed in this paper show that the B8 bridge between the two ribosomal subunits is critical in this regard. This work also brings into high relief a more general problem that ...
متن کاملAmbiguous games: evidence for strategic ambiguity aversion.
The problem of ambiguity in games is discussed, and a class of ambiguous games is identified. A total of 195 participants played strategic-form games of various sizes with unidentified co-players. In each case, they first chose between a known-risk game involving a co-player indifferent between strategies and an equivalent ambiguous game involving one of several co-player types, each with a dif...
متن کاملAmbiguity Made Precise: A Comparative Foundation
The theory of subjective expected utility has been recently extended to allow ambiguity to matter for choice. We propose a notion of absolute ambiguity aversion by building on a notion of comparative ambiguity aversion. We characterize it for a preference model which encompasses some of the most popular models in the literature. We next build on these ideas to provide a definition of unambiguou...
متن کاملDefinitions of Ambiguous Events and the Smooth Ambiguity Model
We examine a variety of preference-based definitions of ambiguous events in the context of the smooth ambiguity model. We first consider the definition proposed in Klibanoff et al (2005) based on the classic Ellsberg two-urn paradox (Ellsberg (1961)), and show that it satisfies several desirable properties. We then compare this definition with those of Nehring (1999), Epstein and Zhang (2001), ...
متن کاملAmbiguity leads to uncertainty: ambiguous demands to blood donors.
Blood donors must respond to standard control questions and comply to certain demands before donating blood, to exclude possible recent contamination. This study investigates whether donors had adequate knowledge about 'the immunological window period', and whether the standard questionnaire in use was understandable and clear. It was found that nearly 40% of the donors had inadequate knowledge...
