Slide 2 We will define a notion of cobordism generalizing that of Quillen: • D. G. Quillen, Elementary proofs of some results of cobordism theory using Steenrod operations, Adv. in Math. 7 (1971), 29–56. Details appear in • C. Özel, On the Complex Cobordism of Flag Varieties Associated to Loop Groups, PhD thesis, University of Glasgow (1998). • A. Baker & C. Özel, Complex cobordism of Hilbert m...

The first comprehensive revision of the Western Palaearctic species of the genus Dinotrema Foerster, 1862 is provided. 174 species of this genus are redescribed and illustrated. Ten species are described as new, viz, D. acompressum sp. nov., D. cahitum sp. nov., D. collybiae sp. nov., D. digitatum sp. nov., D. glabrideum sp. nov., D. helote sp. nov., D. lepiotae sp. nov., D. norwegicum sp. nov....

Shadowed motile elements from actinomycetes were observed with an electron microscope. Included were three strains of Actinoplanes, two of Ampullariella, two of Dermatophilus, two of Spirillospora, and four of "Nocardia" turbata. In addition, three types of previously undescribed actionmycetes were represented: (i) the C(4) group (four strains) forming substrate mycelium breaking into motile ro...

Cell-wall preparations were made from more than 140 strains of aerobic actinomycetes representing most of the form-genera that have been proposed. All cell-wall preparations contained as major constituents glucosamine, muramic acid, alanine, and glutamic acid. In addition, cell-wall preparations from various types of streptomycetes and strains of Microëllobosporia contained glycine and ll-alpha...

Conscientious clinicians may think that the advice available from the 'experts' does not apply to the patients they see and will want to assess the evidence for themselves, so that their practice will provide the best management for their patients. It is for such people that this book has been written. The writing is excellent and it is embellished by amusing cartoons and witty one-line quotati...

We report a crystalline derivative of bistramide D synthesized from natural bistramide A, and its structure was determined by X-ray analysis.

The first total synthesis of the biologically significant bis-indole alkaloid dragmacidin D (5) has been achieved. Thermal and electronic modulation provides the key for a series of palladium-catalyzed Suzuki cross-coupling reactions that furnished the core structure of the complex guanidine- and aminoimidazole-containing dragmacidins. Following this crucial sequence, a succession of meticulous...
